BUT the thing is, the rear view is limited to just under what the 'law requires', IE seeing straight down the sides of the TT. I've tried several aftermarket mirrors that clip on or strap to the existing mirrors and the type that clamp onto the fenders. The ones that glom onto the existing mirrors are hardly any better that having them and the fender clamp jobs vibrate so bbbaaadddddllyy they are 98% useless.
Anyone have better luck with looking back?

With my 3/4 ton Chevy it is as simple as pushing a button and the mirrors extend out at least 6 to 10 more inches. Perhaps you could find aftermarket mirrors that will do the same. Or Buy A Chevy.
