Hello! What mirrors do you guys recommend for a 2024 1500, i don’t wanna buy the GM tow mirrors cause they look ridiculous IMO on the 1500, anyone have any suggestions?
Better Mirrors for 1500

I use the K-source Snap and Zap to clip on the factory mirrors. Easy to attach and remove as needed. Works well for the dozen or more times per year I tow my travel trailer. My trailer is 8-1/2' wide and these allow me to see around the sides of the trailer.

I used the extension kind that slide over the mirrors and never had any issues with them and thought the worked great

I purchased the Boost mirrors for a 2017 I had. Loved the look but hated the vibration. They shook so much at higher speeds you couldn’t see out of them. This is the #1 complaint from buyers. There is a bunch of wiring you need to do if you want to get them to fold and have the turn signals work etc. anyway, The work around for the vibration was to go factory mirrors. That was for the 18 and less years but I’m guessing it’s about the same now as aftermarket stuff is usually sub par in quality.

Do these help with visibility right next to the truck like the lower "blind spot" sections of traditional tow mirrors do? I love the look of my sport mirrors but can't see the curb corners when taking tight 90° right turns. I have the standard 6'6" bed and have to take right turns like a school bus or I'll jump the curb! I bought some little stick on blind spot mirrors that are custom cut to fit the corners and not interfere with the blind spot monitoring, but they are so tiny you cant see anything! I don't tow often and can deal with the sport mirrors for the few times i do, but the ones you spoke of do seem quite helpful for that part. I'm hoping maybe they'll serve my daily driving visibility purposes as well. Any insight would be appreciated!

Research before you replace. Horror stories out there.
Clip ons are great for backing the trailer, as mentioned may vibrate driving.
Our concern was backing a trailer.
I attached a stick-on wide angle. Helps with blind spotting, but useless backing a trailer.
Jus’ sayin’ if you’re considering it.

The clip on extension mirrors I had on last truck never vibrated and will see if I can get some of those for my current truck
