    1. Don't plan on driving with them extended unless towing.
    2. Actually, I do tow things all the time. So there is functionality.
    3. This is a supportive forum. No need to be a douchebag.

    Those mirrors look great and are great. The crappy little mirrors that Tacos have are useless when it comes to towing. I think Tacoma’s with tow packages should come standard with extended tow mirrors. Nice job OP, wish my truck had those.
    Could you give a little info on the installation, problems or modifications you experienced.

    I love the dual mirrors. I had tow mirrors in my Titan and it made life easier.

    Thanks Sprig! Agreed about the tow package model haha. Installation was quite a project. Took about 12 hours. The mirrors were not plug and play since both the electric and physical design were not intended for this truck. Had to drill 3 new holes into the door panel with a big ole 3/4" bit to match the new bolt pattern. Hardest part by far was the electrical work. Had to snip both connectors and start a long process of trial and error to see which wire did what. Then splice wires together, run through door grommets, and tap into harnesses under the fuse box. Good bit of work but worth it in the end

    Just got and 07 Tacoma already lifted. Just got some new tires put on but plan on maybe upgrading to tow more. It's a TRD sport so it already had decent tow capacity. This post is basically what all I want and I'm partially there already
