Default Towing mirrors

I have some clip-on towing mirrors by Cipa. I probably didn't adjust them properly, but I had to move my head around to see if anyone was in my blind spot. My neighbor has glue-on fish eyes he uses.

What are your towing mirror recomendations? I have a Honda Pilot and a FF X139, 14 feet including hitch.

Thanks!

It sounds like your add-on mirrors are not adjust correctly. In all honesty, and I'll probably get flamed for this, I don't have towing mirrors. With an adjustment to my mirrors, I can see very good. And I always shoulder check before changing lanes. I may add those stick on convex mirrors to the factory mirrors. I try to hug the outside line as I feel that leaves the most space between me and passing trucks, and by doing that I can always see who is coming up from behind.

I have the Cipa clip on mirrors and after adjusting them, I marked which was set up for drivers side, which for passenger side. I like them, I can see down the side of the trailer and verify no one is there, or no one is moving towards my blind spot.
