Towing Mirrors

Australian road rules require the driver to see 20 metres past the widest point of the vehicle being towed. In NSW this requirement applies under the Road Rules 2014 and is enforced by NSW Police and Transport for NSW. Factory mirrors on most 4WDs and utes do not meet this requirement once a wide caravan, trailer or boat is connected. Driving without adequate towing visibility risks a fine, an at-fault accident finding and potential insurance complications.

Every towing mirror we stock extends to meet the 20 metre visibility requirement and folds back to the standard driving position when you finish towing.

Towing Mirror Brands We Stock and Fit

We are a licensed and authorised dealer and installer for two of Australia’s most respected towing mirror brands.

MSA 4×4 Towing Mirrors

MSA 4×4 towing mirrors hold a SEMA award for innovation and over 20 patents in Australia and internationally. SEMA is the Specialty Equipment Market Association, the peak body for the automotive accessories industry in the United States. A SEMA award is one of the most recognised product innovation awards in the global automotive accessories market.

Every MSA towing mirror is vehicle-specific, retaining the factory power fold, heated glass and indicator functions of the original mirror while extending for legal towing visibility. MSA towing mirrors suit owners who want a mirror that operates exactly like their factory mirror with the added extension for towing. No separate controls, no additional wiring beyond the factory connection.

Our most popular MSA towing mirror fitments at our Cardiff workshop include the MSA Towing Mirrors Toyota HiLux, the MSA Power Fold Towing Mirrors Ford Ranger Super Duty and the MSA Towing Mirrors Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series.

Five Features Every Towing Mirror Should Have

Not all towing mirrors are the same. These are the key features to confirm before purchasing.

1. Vehicle-specific fitment means the mirror mounts to the exact attachment points of your factory mirror rather than using a universal clamp-on bracket. A vehicle-specific mirror holds more securely and aligns correctly with your factory mirror controls.
2. Power fold means the extended towing mirror folds back electrically using your factory mirror fold button. Without power fold you fold the mirror manually every time you finish towing.
3. Heated glass means the mirror uses your factory heated glass function to clear condensation and frost. This matters for owners who tow in cold or coastal conditions.
4. Integrated indicators means the indicator light in the mirror works through your factory indicator circuit. Without integrated indicators the mirror has no indicator function when extended.
5. Camera provision means the mirror housing includes a pre-wired mounting point for a reversing or towing camera without modifying the mirror housing. This suits owners who want to add a towing camera without separate bracket hardware.

Every MSA and Clearview towing mirror we stock confirms these functions for each specific vehicle platform before we order.

Towing Mirror Fitting in Newcastle

We fit every towing mirror at our Cardiff workshop on Munibung Road. Our technicians remove the factory mirror and mount the towing mirror to the exact factory attachment points. They connect the power fold, heated glass and indicator wiring to the factory harness and confirm all functions operate correctly with your factory controls before handing your vehicle back.

Fitting typically takes under an hour per mirror. We check both mirrors fold, heat and indicate correctly before your vehicle leaves our workshop.
