G'day Pedro,

My mirrors aren't magnetic, but they clip on to the back of the existing mirror using rubber straps.

They are fairly good, they shake around a bit but they're not too bad.

On the 120, you need to get the mirrors that suit large vehicles, as they are adjustable to suit the large and high mirror.

See: http://www.camec.com.au/01-Car%20Accessories.htm

I had these ones, but they don't fit the 120:



You need these ones:



I've found the best configuration is to have them vertical, as they catch less wind and don't move around as much that way.

Hope this helps mate,

Drew.

Thanks Drew.

I have the Aussie Truck Mirrors but not happy with the way they fit onto door.

Reading other forums and latest 4X4 mag a guy there confirmed he had not been able to find a set that did not fold in or blow off with road trains etc.

Giving it more thought might buy a reverse camera.
Did you end up with the "eclipse"?

Are there any other worthwhile reverse camera's out there (dual one for caravan too).

I'm chasing some mirror extenders for my 120 GXL to legaly tow my boat. Anyone got some good cheap ones? BCF and supercheap sell some.

When towing a caravan, camper trailer or pop top your tow vehicle’s internal rear view mirror is obstructed and for some tow vehicles the fixed external side mirrors on your door may not have the capacity to provide a clear view of any following vehicle. This is where towing mirrors come into play.
