Hi All

 

We need to buy new towing mirrors, we have been using the ones with the band on the back but the band has snapped.  I have been looking at the Milenco Aero 3 mirrors.  My questions are 

1. Are they worth the price

2. We have a Hyundai santa fe do these mirrors fit on these ok?

 

Thanks for your help

I used Milenco Aero for many years and they worked well.  I did find the fitting of them somewhat fiddly.  I then replaced them with Milenco Falcon which I found to be far superior to the Aero.  Easier to fit, though hard to explain without the mirror in front of me, but with even better visibility which is the most important factor.

The replacement bands are cheap enough.

Another vote for Milenco.  They even sell longer arms to cope with the wider caravans that are on the market now.

Yes they are, really. Great view behind and easy to fit.

We have a Kia Sorento (sister to yours) and yes they do fit well straight out of the box, some prefer different pads that grip the car's mirrors better but ours were fine.

Look here as well:

This youtube link shows the Milenco Aero mirrors which I think are inferior to the Milenco Falcon.  For some reason the Falco ones seem less popular but I consider them easier to fit and they also provide a wide angle of view.

I persevered with some old mirrors I inherited from my father, because I thought they were good. One fixing broke, so I bought Milenco Aeros. Much better I have to say. Very solid fixing, and yes, they fit a 2016 Santa Fe as that’s what I have.
