Hello everybody,
I need to purchase a set of outside driving mirrors for my BT50 ute when towing a 5th wheeler. The ones which clip to the vehicles mirrors appeal to me because they are simple and quick to fit and remove. The Milenco extra wide seem an ideal product. I saw these at the
Melbourne Caravan Show today.
There are some that say these are ok, while others seem to suggest vibration could be an issue when driving and the type that are supported with a side support arm are the better option.
Since I have no experience with either type your comments will help with my choice as to which to purchase
thanks
Bob.

The choice is fairly simple:
If you've got lots of money and you don't mind driving around looking faintly ridiculous with oversized mirrors then go for the Clearviews.
If you want good vibration-free mirrors at a realistic price, go for the Milenco.
I'm just back from from a 23,000 km 8 month lap with my van using a set of Milencos and during that trip I rarely took them off, including a trip up the Gibb.
Milencos don't need any additional support.
Happy travelling.
Keep safe, it's a jungle out there.
Regards
TJ
