Caravan Towing Mirrors

Australia’s Original Full Replacement Caravan Towing Mirrors

Caravan Towing Mirrors Australia

Full Replacement Extendable Towing Mirrors for Safer Caravan Towing
See past your van, cut blind spots, and tow with more confidence on every Australian road and track.
Towing a caravan changes how you see the road. Your van is often wider and longer than your tow vehicle, so standard side mirrors leave big gaps in your vision. Clearview Caravan Towing Mirrors are full replacement extendable mirrors that give you a wider, clearer view down both sides of your set up, helping you change lanes, merge, reverse, and park with greater control.
Slide them out when you hitch up the caravan. Slide them back in for everyday driving.

Which Towing Mirror Range Suits Your Caravan?

Clearview offers three towing mirror ranges. The best choice depends on what you tow, how often you tow, and your vehicle.

Compact Towing Mirrors

Best for caravan owners who want a streamlined, OEM-style look with strong visibility.

  • Smaller, factory-style mirror footprint
  • Large single convex mirror for a wide field of view
  • Telescopic two-stage extension with three towing positions, up to 180mm
  • Double arm design for stable, vibration-free vision
  • Retains most compatible factory functions depending on vehicle
  • Everyday driving practicality

The Clearview Compact Tow Mirror is ideal if you want a discreet mirror for day-to-day driving.

Next Gen Towing Mirrors

Best for frequent towing and larger caravans where broad visibility matters most.

  • Clearview’s flagship twin-mirror design
  • Flat 1:1 top mirror for accurate distance judgement
  • Convex lower mirror to minimise blind spots
  • Telescopic two-stage extension with three towing positions, up to 180mm
  • Double arm design for steady, clear vision
  • Retains most modern factory functions depending on vehicle

Next Gen is the strong choice if you tow large vans often and want precise visibility for reversing, hitching, and long-distance touring.

Classic Towing Mirrors

Best for practical caravan towing visibility at a more accessible price point.

  • Dual mirror design with flat top and convex bottom mirror
  • Double arm design for stability on rough roads
  • Two driving positions, Normal and Extended
  • Simpler feature range: indicator or non-indicator, manual or electric adjustment
  • Durable black finish

Classic suits older vehicles or anyone who wants a tough, straightforward, value-focused towing mirror.

Why Caravan Towing Mirrors Matter

When your caravan is wider than your tow vehicle, factory mirrors simply can’t show you what’s happening alongside and behind your van. That missing vision is where many towing incidents begin, especially when merging or changing lanes.
The right towing mirrors give you:

  • A clear view down the full length of your vehicle and caravan
  • Awareness of traffic approaching from behind
  • Safer, more confident lane changes and merging
  • Better control when reversing and parking a large van
  • Fewer dangerous blind spots
  • Legal towing when your load is wider than your vehicle

In Australia, you must be able to see clearly down both sides of your vehicle and whatever you’re towing. If your caravan is wider than your tow vehicle and your standard mirrors don’t give you enough rearward vision, suitable towing mirrors are required.
A rear camera alone is not enough. It can help you see directly behind your van, but it doesn’t replace the side and rearward visibility that mirrors provide.

Why Choose Clearview for Caravan Towing

  • Full Replacement Design, Not Clip-Ons
    Clearview Towing Mirrors replace your factory side mirrors completely. They are not clip-on or strap-on mirrors. That means a stronger, more stable, and more integrated solution built for regular caravan towing.
  • Built for Australian Roads and Tracks
    From highway runs to corrugated outback tracks, Clearview mirrors are made to handle tough touring conditions across Australia. Clearview has manufactured premium extendable towing mirrors since 2006.
  • Stable Vision with the Double Arm Design
    Clearview’s double arm design delivers superior stability and minimises vibration, even at high speeds or on rough terrain. The added support keeps your view steady and clear, exactly when you need it most while towing a heavy van.
  • Vehicle-Specific Fitment
    Each base mount is engineered for a specific make and model, so your mirrors fit securely and sit in the right position for towing visibility.
  • Factory-Style Functionality Where Compatible
    Depending on your vehicle, Clearview mirrors are designed to retain key factory mirror features, so you don’t have to give up the technology you rely on just to tow safely.
  • ADR Approved and Legal Across Australia
    Clearview Towing Mirrors are tested and approved to meet applicable Australian Design Rules, giving you confidence in every state and territory.

Factory Feature Compatibility

Many modern vehicles pack important technology into their side mirrors. Clearview designs its towing mirrors to work with compatible factory features, so you can tow safely without losing the functions you depend on.
Depending on your vehicle, available features may include:

  • Electric mirror adjustment
  • Indicators
  • Heated glass
  • Power fold
  • Blind Spot Monitoring
  • Outside Ambient Temperature sensor
  • Memory adjustments
  • Auto-tilting when reversing
  • 360-degree camera provision
  • Puddle lights on selected applications
  • CAT 6 indicator option where required

Important Feature Note
Mirror features depend on your vehicle’s make, model, series, variant, and year. Clearview Towing Mirrors can only support compatible features your vehicle already has. They do not add new functions to a vehicle that didn’t have those features from the factory.
For example, if your vehicle doesn’t already have power folding mirrors, Clearview Power Fold Towing Mirrors will not add power fold functionality.

Legal and ADR Reassurance

In Australia, you need a clear view down both sides of your vehicle and your caravan. If your van is wider than your tow vehicle, standard mirrors may not give you enough rearward vision to tow safely or legally.
Clearview Towing Mirrors are tested and approved to meet applicable Australian Design Rules and are legal in all states and territories when fitted and used correctly. Every Clearview model has been individually tested by Evo Compliance, a NSW-based firm with extensive automotive engineering and certification experience.
For best compliance, your Clearview mirrors should only be extended when towing. Return them to the retracted driving position when you’re not towing your caravan.

Built Tough. Proven Across Australia.

Every set of Clearview Towing Mirrors is designed for strength, stability, and long-distance touring with a caravan in tow.
Clearview mirrors are made with:

  • Vehicle-specific base mounts for a secure fit
  • Diecast aluminium bases for strength and stability
  • Steel arms for durability
  • Stainless steel precision-cut cams
  • Corrosion-resistant coating
  • Powder-coated finishes
  • Careful assembly and quality checks

Final assembly takes place at Clearview’s Melbourne factory, where every set is inspected and tested before shipping. From Cape York to the Gibb River Road, Clearview mirrors are built for Australian towing conditions.

FAQs

Do I need towing mirrors for my caravan?
Yes, if your caravan is wider than your tow vehicle and your standard mirrors don’t give you a clear view down both sides and behind your van. Clearview Caravan Towing Mirrors help you see past your load, reduce blind spots, and tow more safely.

Can I use a rear camera instead of towing mirrors?
No. A camera can help you see directly behind your caravan, but it doesn’t replace the need to see down both sides of your vehicle and van. Towing mirrors give you side and rearward visibility that a camera alone cannot.

Do Clearview Towing Mirrors extend and retract electrically?
No. Clearview Towing Mirrors extend and retract manually. Power Fold, where available, refers to the mirror folding in toward the vehicle body and back out again. It does not mean the towing extension is electric.

Which Clearview range is best for towing a caravan?
It depends on your vehicle and how you tow. Choose Compact for a streamlined, everyday-friendly mirror, Next Gen for flagship visibility and larger vans, or Classic for a practical, value-focused option. The best place to start is your vehicle fitment.

Are caravan towing mirrors required by law in Australia?
Yes. When your load is wider than your vehicle and your factory mirrors don’t provide clear rearward vision, suitable towing mirrors are required. Clearview Towing Mirrors are designed to give you the visibility needed for safer, compliant towing.

Are Clearview Towing Mirrors clip-on mirrors?
No. Clearview Towing Mirrors are full replacement mirrors. They replace your original factory side mirrors for a stronger, more stable, and more integrated towing solution.

Will Clearview mirrors keep my factory features?
In many cases, yes. Clearview designs mirrors to retain compatible factory features where available. Compatibility depends on your vehicle’s make, model, series, variant, and year, and Clearview mirrors do not add features your vehicle didn’t already have.

Should I keep my factory mirrors?
Yes. We recommend keeping your original factory mirrors as a backup. If your Clearview mirror ever needs repair, your factory mirrors can help keep your vehicle roadworthy in the meantime.
