I paid the dealer to put the OEM towing mirrors on my 2015 when I had it. Pricey yes,but much better than the small clip ons.

Used them on my Avalanche with great success and now use them on my F150.
Well worth the cost.

I'll 2nd the recommendation of Lwiddis above.
Towing mirrors
I used a set very similar to these for quite a few years before purchasing a truck with stock towing mirrors. They allow you to see alongside your trailer for lane changes very well and do not vibrate like some other add on mirrors. A very nice product.

Call your local scrap yards and see if they have any mirrors from a 2500 or 3500 for your truck. You'll like those a lot better than strap on mirrors.

Grand Aero 1(, 2, or 3) are all very good. Not quite as nice as factory design, though.Check out AM Auto Parts for some decent quality aftermarket towing mirrors.

Do a WEB search for aftermarket factory tow mirrors, you will be MUCH happier with the view. This is very true if you have power adjustable mirrors.

If you could get a set of extending factory mirrors, it would be a lot easier than clip on ones. My Toyota Tundra came with factory extending mirrors. I have several large trailers, and a big boat. They are very handy. Mine are manual extension. You can even get power ones if you want to go big time.
