Mirrors for a 2015 Tacoma?
Does anyone have any ideas for extention mirrors for a 2015 Tacoma?
I just bought a 2011 X17-Z and no one seems to have any ideas, not Toyota or Camping World.

Having been in your shoes, and experimenting with three different types of mirrors, (suction cup, rubber band type, etc.) the best for the money is a brand called Millenco. Bought through Amazon. They have a solid attachment, are adjustable every which way, and although every style will vibrate some, these vibrate the least. If I knew how to attach a link I would. They make a couple of sizes and shapes, but the larger ones are great, and fit 98% of mirrors out there. All you need, is about 1/8" of space between the glass and housing. I'll try to get a part number, and post later.

I spelled it wrong. Milenco 2912 at Amazon. Ours are on a 2010 Tundra, and they are the best we've found so far. Maybe someone will offer another idea, also.

Mirrors for a 2015 Tacoma?
This is what we have on our F-150. http://www.cipausa.com/fit-chart
They make them for the Tundra as well.

The mirrors tylersdad mention are the best. However, CIPA doesn't make those type for Toyota Tacomas after 2009. I have the same problem for my 2008 Sport Trac.
This is what I use and have had pretty good luck.

Oops. I saw Toyota and saw Tundra at the same time. Sorry about that.

I have the Milenco Aero 2 mirrors. Really like them. I have them set to reach way out there, I could see the htt bumper if it was not for the tire skirts.

I got these at Campworld and they work great. Easy to put on and take off and no vibration on the road. I can see the tires when I look down and the sides of the TT. They clip on the window and the bottom of the door. There called Eagle Vision.

I bought a pair of bolt on mirrors during a group buy over on tacomaWorld.com
I love them. I cant search this forum on my cell phone but if you search Cdntaco over on TacomaWorld. You should find my posts complete with photos and vids. I will add the link here later for you. You need to send a pm to mach1man...real name Rob.
Here is the link.

I have a 2013 Tacoma DCLB that I tow a Starcraft 176RB with. I tried numerous mirrors and finally went with the McKesh mirrors. They are easily adjustable, can be put on and off in a few minutes and will work on other vehicles if needed. Some say they have had problems with them scratching the paint but on two vehicles over 8 years I have not had that problem. They are very similiar to Tunce the Traveller's mirrors. By the way parts are available if needed. Can be purchased through various places.

OK, got a little bit of time now to actually post a couple of pics.
These are the PRO-EFX mirrors that I bought from Rob over on the Tacoma Forum. The old mirrors came off and these ones bolt right on and use the existing Electrical connections. It takes about 20 min to install. Mine are Power mirror only, but he does sell the mirrors with heaters and turn signals as well.
They work great. And it's simple to flip them up into TOW mode as shown in Pic #2 which is not my photo but does show the mirrors effectiveness.
