Does anyone tow with a Cayenne Turbo?

I am new to this towing lark, I need to get some mirror extenders but I don't know where to start. I don't want to ruin the mirrors by scratching them and want the nicest type, some seem to look awful and some better but I don't really know the difference and obviously they need to clip on properly. What do I need to look for? Where do you get them from? thanks!

Also use them. They take a bit of getting used to when first putting them on the car, but once on and tightened up really do the trick

Use them on my Cayenne.
Tip. Once you get them set up, put a small strip of insulation tape next to the mirror clamp so that you can easiliy position the next time.

Wing mirrors on my classic are proper old school jobbies, mounted onto the wings near the headlights. Chrome plated circular mirrors that look good but a swine for attaching towing mirrors to. Chap offered me a solution to the problem in the form of large sections of metal strips which clamp onto the wheel arch and bonnet. Must be a engineering job to get them correctly positioned and I had by then purchased my mirrors which simply use a sucker onto the existing mirror to stay put. Named 'suck and see' mirrors!
