I've used that type before as well but my new truck has painted mirrors and don't want to risk scratching them with these slide over design.

I have been using Aero. One of the features I like, I can mount them so the reach way out, and I can easily see my tt's bumper. I also do not see much vibration when mount out there a long ways.

I picked up a pair of these from Amazon (or almost identical) and they work great. I had to send one back because the mirror quality was not the best (looked like I was in a house of mirrors).

Why not just replace with some look-a-like factory tow mirrors? That's what my neighbor's son did. Something like these...https://www.amazon.com/YITAMOTOR-Mir...gateway&sr=8-4

He loves them and said they took him about an hour to install.

Agreed, I used ones like that when I had my F-150 and was always happy with them.

The ones OP linked to I never liked. The set I had made funny noises at highway speed, plus I was always afraid they were going to fall off.

On my last truck I bought after market extension mirrors off of ebay (just like the factory ones except 80% cheaper) and installed them myself. That was the best overall by far.

I bought a pair of Milenco mirrors three years ago and they work great. No vibration and stay where I adjusted them even over bumps or interstate speeds.

Good input from forum members, thanks. Those look alike factory mirrors are nice but not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a smaller diameter meter, like 4" but I'm having a hard time finding them. This one I posted is in my wheel house but a little big.
