You don’t necessarily need extension mirrors, cp, but the required field of vision is laid down in law. You’ll need to establish whether the extra mirrors are necessary to achieve this.

But the OP stated his Transit including mirrors is the same width as his caravan so he will definitely need extension mirrors,
