Clearview® Next Gen Towing Mirrors

The Next Generation Towing Mirrors

The Next Generation in Towing Mirrors

The Clearview® Next Gen Mirror represents the next generation in towing mirrors. If you want a stylish mirror that eliminates blind spots and ensures your safety through improved vision, this is the mirror for you.

Telescopic 2-stage extension provides 2 towing positions to choose from, allowing you to see down the side of your van when towing and won’t retract when driving at high speeds or when passing large trucks.

A dual mirror design incorporating an upper large flat glass for reflecting true distance and lower convex glass for a broader view of the vehicle’s surrounds makes this the ultimate towing mirror recommended for all of your towing needs.

This is the mirror for you if you want wide visibility and safety without the size of our Original Clearview Towing Mirrors®.

Build your mirror

Included Features

*Please note that mirror features specified in the above mirror descriptions are the only features included in the mirror. Any features not specified are not included in the Towing Mirror. Please compare our listed features with your standard vehicle mirror to understand what features you may be missing in your new Clearview mirror.  If Powerfold, Camera or auto reverse-dip functionality is not specified in our mirror description, then we do not have it available for your model at this time. 

Towing mirror features are only available for vehicles with those pre-existing features as standard (ie heat, powerfold, BSM etc) – the mirror alone cannot add new functionality to the vehicle.

To remain ADR compliant, if your standard mirrors have Indicators or Blind Spot Monitoring functionality in them, then your towing mirrors also need to have these features.

Clearview Towing mirrors do not extend or retract electrically. 

Features That Lead the Market

Clearview Towing Mirrors are a full replacement solution designed to be extendable when you need them, and conveniently retract back when you don’t. With meticulous engineering and proud partnerships with vehicle manufacturers, Clearview Mirrors don’t just meet standards – they set them. A seamless integration ensures that installing Clearview Mirrors is not a compromise but an upgrade on all fronts. It promises not just improved vision, but a blend of technology and convenience that accommodates the essence of modern-day touring and work-life.

Next Gen Towing Mirror features

We build our mirrors tough. We make them in Australia. We test them in Australia. And we build them to withstand the rigors of the Australian outback. If they withstand the Australian outback, they’re tough enough for any country! If they’re tough enough to withstand what Jase and the All 4 Adventure team put them through, they’re tough enough for everyone!

Advantages of Flat 1:1 Top Mirror View

Enhanced Depth Perception: A flat 1:1 top mirror view provides users with a more accurate and realistic representation of distances. This improved depth perception is particularly beneficial when navigating tight spaces or reversing, reducing the risk of collisions and enhancing overall driving safety.

Improved Alignment for Reversing: Flat mirrors can significantly aid in alignment tasks, such as reversing into parking spaces or aligning a hitch with a trailer. The clear and undistorted view allows for more precise and confident manoeuvring, reducing the likelihood of misalignment and potential damage.

*Replacement convex glass is also available to purchase for those who prefer the convex vision over the 1:1 vision.

The LC300 Series Base Difference

Importance of our patented, secondary mount design

When the time came to design our new LC300 Towing mirrors, we decided to start from scratch! By doing so, we were able to look past the existing factory mounting point and develop a product that far surpassed any expectations on what a Towing Mirror could do!

Our unique secondary mount design accounts for the 300 Series’ lightweight aluminum door skin and provides multiple secure and sturdy attachment points for our mirrors. This ensures that the mirrors stay in place without damaging the aluminium door skin, no matter the terrain or towing conditions, giving you the peace of mind to focus on your journey.

Our complete redesign of the LandCruiser 300 Series side mirror mounting position allowed us to identify the optimum location for the new Towing Mirrors to be installed to provide the best visibility when in the extended towing position.

We needed to move the standard mounting point forward to make it easier to see out of while towing. If we’d simply reinforced the existing mounting point and installed our mirrors there, the driver would be constantly leaning backwards and turning their head to see anything out of the extended towing mirrors.

The LC70 Series Base Difference

The existing positions of the mirror mounting holes on the doors of the LC79 vary as the standard mirrors are installed after the vehicle lands in Australia. When the factory mirror is removed, it leaves two holes in the side of the door panel. Our Clearview Towing Mirror base mounts onto these same holes, but due to their varying positions on individual vehicles, our mounting holes are elongated to allow for the variance. This can also mean that the overall position of the mirror on the door can be different by vehicle.


Toyota LandCruiser Troop Carriers are designed with vent windows (triangular windows). Clearview Towing Mirrors can be installed onto Troop Carriers, but due to the mounting position of the mirrors overlapping the glass, the vent windows will no longer be operational. New mounting holes will need to be drilled in the side of the door panels to support the mirror base.

Rediscover the joys of travel with the clarity and confidence that only Clearview can provide.

Seamless integration, extended visibility, and cutting-edge technology – Clearview Towing Mirrors are your ultimate partner in safety and convenience on the road. With each adventure you undertake, gain peace of mind knowing that the best towing mirrors accompany you. Clearview mirrors reflect the future of towing – one that is safer, smarter, and suited to modern demands.

Towing has never been clearer, and the road ahead never looked better.

Technology Meets Towing

Clearview mirrors come with a range of advanced features such as 360-degree camera provision, auto-tilting function when reversing, memory adjustment, power-fold, and blind spot monitoring. These features enhance both the functionality and safety of the tow mirrors.

Double Arm Design Benefits

The double arm design of Clearview towing mirrors provides superior stability and adjustability. This innovative design minimises vibrations, even at high speeds or on rough terrains, ensuring that the driver has a clear and steady view at all times. The added support from the dual arms also allows for larger mirror surfaces, which enhances visibility and safety when towing or manoeuvring large vehicles. Clearview’s design remains the preferred choice for those seeking the utmost in mirror stability and reliability.

Spare Parts Availability
Clearview provides easy access to a complete range of spare parts, ensuring that users can quickly and efficiently replace components as needed. This extensive availability of spare parts contributes to the longevity and reliability of our mirrors, making them a preferred choice.

All Clearview Next Gen Towing Mirrors are available in a choice of black, chrome* and raw finish.

CAT 6 Indicator option

Asset 1@2x
The Clearview CAT-6 LED Indicator is designed to meet the requirements of ADR 6/00. A CAT-6 Indicator is an optional fitment on all ‘Off Road Passenger Vehicles’ (MC Category) and most ‘Light Goods Vehicles’ (NA Category) but is a mandatory requirement on Light Goods Vehicles over 6.0m in length and all Medium Goods Vehicles with GVM between 3.5t and 4.5t. (Category NB-1). Note: The Clearview CAT-6 Indicator should only be used as the “Sole Side Indicator” on a vehicle, when the vehicle dimensions enable positioning of the Indicator, when fitted to a Clearview Towing Mirror, within the dimensions as prescribed by ADR 13/00 Appendix A Clause 6.5.4 – Installation of Light Signaling Devices – Position. For some Medium Goods Vehicles this may not be possible for the 'prescribed distance from the front of the vehicle to the Indicator (Clause 6.5.4.3)', due to the reduction in maximum allowable distance, from 2500mm to 1800mm.

Clearview Next Gen Towing Mirrors

Our Clearview Next Gen Towing Mirrors are our flagship mirrors suitable for all your towing needs, with a twin mirror design of a single flat mirror above a smaller convex mirror, in a sleek design.

When you’re gearing up for a road trip with a caravan, trailer, or horse float attached to your vehicle, one of the critical considerations is your rear visibility during the drive. If your side mirrors are ineffective with the trailer hitched up, Clearview Extendable Mirrors provide the extra visibility required to see you safely to your destination.

Clearview Mirrors aren’t just great for reversing, they also provide the extra visibility to be aware of vehicles coming up behind you, wanting to overtake.

Visibility is paramount for road safety, especially when managing the additional length and width of towed objects. Towing mirrors play a vital role in providing a clear line of sight to both the sides and rear of your vehicle – essential for manoeuvring, overtaking, and reversing. In Australia, the use of towing mirrors is not just about safety; it’s also a legal requirement when towing anything wider than your vehicle.

Clearview Next Gen Towing Mirrors not only offer safety and legal compliance but also contribute to a confident and stress-free towing experience. Whether navigating busy highways or traversing rural landscapes, Clearview provides the best mirrors to ensure you can focus on the adventure ahead.

Why are Clearview Mirrors the Best Towing Mirrors?

When it comes to choosing the best mirrors for your vehicle, particularly for off-road and towing purposes, Clearview towing mirrors remain the most popular options on the market. What sets Clearview mirrors apart and why are they the better choice?

Don't sell your factory mirrors!
