I think they're a bit smaller. I'd go for the McKeshes again. YMMV. You get what you pay for.[/quote]
This is not exactly an elegant solution, but I can see where it could work. Do you use this mirror on the passenger door as well as the driver door?[/quote]icebear,  these mirrors look like they are very functional......are they made so they do not mess up the truck?

Yes. Mine came with a couple sets of replaceable pads, but after five seasons, I'm still on the originals. I'm pretty careful to clean the doors and pads before I mount the mirrors though. If there's grit on the pad well, forewarned is forearmed. They also don't vibrate. Nice clear picture aft. One thing though: if you overtighten the straps, they'll sing like a violin string. They don't need to be that tight

[/quote]Yes they are really good I like them a lot, they are way better than the one I had before with strap (which I lost one on the highway) they seem to stay attached really firm and are easier to install I am sure you'll like them
