Re: 2001-ish outside mirror interchange

Actually, the towing mirrors I'm talking about are the expandable type in pic#1 above in a 2001-2002. The vid is about the mirrors in pic 3. Good info, thanks for sharing. I'd be concerned that adding washers as depicted would expose the opening for the mirror pivot to rain - can kinda see that happening in the video. That may not be a problem, doesn't expose the door interior, but still could be an issue. I'm ok with the way the pic 3 mirrors are sitting from the factory (but I agree they look better leveled out), but I'm just not a fan of the expandable camper mirrors in pic 1. FWIW I've driven with the standard mirrors shown in pic 2 since my 2001 was new, they seemed more than sufficient. But would need another type for a wide load.
