ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a new adjustable extender for a vehicle exterior side mirrors, for telescopingly extending an original equipment vehicle side rear view mirror, of a type commonly used on pickup trucks, away from a vehicle to increase an operator's field of view when towing a trailer. The extender comprises a generally horizontal tubular arm adapted to telescopingly receive a mounting arm of the original equipment mirror. A collar, threadedly engaged with the distal end of the arm, has a pair of opposing setscrews for securing the original equipment mirror mounting arm for holding the mirror at a preferred orientation relative the vehicle. The upper end of an adapting rod extends through a lateral hole near the proximal end of the arm such that the adapting rod depends normal the arm. The adapting rod is engagable with a vehicle side mirror original equipment mounting bracket in the same fashion as the original equipment mirror mounting arm. A screw pivotally adjustably secures the arm to the upper end of the adapting rod.
