Default Mirror extenders for trailering

Does anyone have a recommendation for mirror extenders? I've got an enclosed trailer I use to haul bikes, sleds, etc.. and the stock mirrors just aren't going to cut it.

I'll tell you what, these stock mirrors dont cut it lol. Towing my boat is such a PITA because I can barely see it from the mirrors, which would be fine and dandy had these hummers not had such terrible blind spots. Ugg. I could drive blind from behind as long as I had decent tow mirrors, but these things are rough man lol

I agree....its a PITA to back my boat. I plan on getting a few flags to put on each side of the trailor so Im not totally blind.

Ya flags aren't a half bad idea. But these mirrors really stink because unless you have an 8ft wide boat, it hides behind the HUMMERS blind spots rather well.

I just have a 16ft bass boat.....Im totally blind to it when Im backing down a ramp. Its even worse when Im backing the trailor without the boat on it.

Oh dude I know tell me about it. It's terrible when backing the trailer down the ramp. What a pain in the A$$ big time. Then you look like an idiot because your hanging halfway out those tiny windows trying to find the trailer lol

Besides being under powered, the h3 mirrors are another problem for me. I wish they had a mirror system similar to the ford superduty.

I think the H3 has plenty of power for what I use it for.. and truthfully, the HUMMER wasn't made to be towing stuff... I can understand why it doesn't have tow mirrors.

My power stroke tow mirrors are THE best mirrors I've ever towed with
