Default Mirror Extensions for Towing

I'm buying a snowmobile trailer that is 8 1/2 feet wide and not easy to see around with the stock mirrors. For the amount I will actually be towing I don't want to install the towing mirrors. Has anyone used any of these extensions?

I have the heated/power mirrors.

From what I have seen/read, the highest recommendation so far goes to the K-Source. I don't have any personal experience but did research already because I do tow sometimes.

These look like the factory tow mirrors but are plug and play - you can buy either 22 or 8 pin versions but seeing as you have a Lariat I would assume you would be looking at the 22pin ones.

I just ordered a set of the K Source ones... We'll see how they work. I will use then 3 or 4 times a year so I don't want to replace the stock mirrors.

I have these: https://www.etrailer.com/Custom-Towi...e/KS81850.html

For towing our travel trailer. It's winter, so I haven't had a chance to use them yet wit a trailer.

But the fit great, are easy to take on/off and give a great rear view in the driveway and on a quick drive around locally....
