2012 Strap-on Tow Mirrors?
 
OK, so Cipa says the mirrors listed for a 2011 truck won't fit the 2012's. Are there any other non-universal type mirrors that will fit? I have a set of McKesh mirrors but I was looking for something to strap on the factory mirrors.

I've towed a lot of miles with strap-on tow mirrors with a friend of mine on his dodge. They shook, vibrated, and are usually small compared to even the stock mirrors. Depending on how your finance situation is on purchasing some I personally wouldn't do it. I hate them and so had factory style tow mirrors on my dodge. The newer ones may be better than in the past few years, I havn't had any experiend with anything made in the last 5 years or so. Ordered some 1AAuto.com F150 tow mirrors for the old mans '06 lariat since he kept talking about needing them after my factory set on my '08. Pwr/heated/puddle for roughly $260. I'll let you know in the next few days how they look in person. The ford tow mirrors take a little getting used to, but I love them but don't like them as much as I did the dodge HD tow mirrors that folded in. They appeared smaller, and are closer in there regular position, and had great views flipped up to tow.

I looked at trucks today and don't know why they wouldn't work. Cipa slide on mirrors are great!

CP11800 will fit perfectly as they are NO diferences between 11 and 12 model mirror wise.

I have a 2012 FX4 and they work great, much better that "strap-on"
