i occasionally tow with my astra ,just to and from storage, though its a 2004 model ,I just use the ones with the 2 rubber straps that go around the mirror, they should fit most mirrors.
which ones are you trying to fit?

I've got a vauxhall antara and I ordered some basic ones from amazon. Like above, the ones with the adjustable rubber straps. Works fine for me.

Hi,
I have the 'double hinged arm' type with the adjustable rubber straps, fitted nicely to my old Antara and now on my Kuga, just make sure the straps are tight enough....

Glad you got sorted.....

Caravan accessory shops sell the straps in two lengths and you can buy them separately from mirrors.
