Arrow Cayenne towing mirrors

Yes, they are hideously ugly, but it looks like they may fit.
(the picture of the Ford Ranger mirror looks very similar to the Cayenne mirror) and they are available with a wide angle glass option (SQ?)

(you can find these for $29.99 each from other websites, this one just had some decent pictures)

Anyone tried these yet?

To quote a line from the movie Gumball Rally:
"What's behind me is not important"
Actually, I'm more concerned about what's next to me (lane changes, etc). The Cayenne mirrors are JUST about OK with a 102" wide enclosed.
Of course, you can always give the trailer a 'wag' to get a peek at what's behind you.

As for styling, maybe if you painted them to match the car..................

Just finished installing all the cabinets and RBComponents parts (similar to PitPal, but nicer quality and cheaper), nitrogen bottle for airjacks, etc. Will have to post some pics now that it's finished....for now.
