MSA 4x4 towing mirrors fitted to the 4X4 Australia D-MAX

Sometimes, the best 4x4 accessories are the ones you don’t notice – the ones that fit like a glove, don’t cause any issues and just work as they should.

This is how I feel about the most recent addition to the 4X4 Australia D-MAX: the MSA 4x4 towing mirrors I bolted on before our most recent trip to Outback NSW.

We wanted to fit a set of towing mirrors to the vehicle, because our D-MAX needs to do a bit of everything and do it well. Towing camper trailers or vehicles on a car trailer is all in a day’s work, so I wanted to be prepared.

Installation was fairly straightforward, despite being slowed down by hidden screws on the factory door cards – a quick Google search helped us here. Once you work that out, it’s as simple as removing the door card, unbolting the factory mirrors and wiring, and bolting on the new MSA 4x4 mirrors.

Then just connect the factory wiring to the MSA mirrors and put the door card back on. All in all, it took me about 45 minutes from start to finish.

What I like about these mirrors – as they look like a factory fitted item – is that they don’t stick out or look out of place. They also work with all the Isuzu sensors, so all factory features stay in place.

To operate them for towing duties, simply flip them, slide them out and you’re away. When you are done towing for the day, push them back in and flip them back to where they were, and job done.

These MSA towing mirrors to suit the current model Isuzu D-MAX set us back $887 not including freight (which will vary). If you can’t find your elusive socket set, budget between $100 and $150 to have them fitted.
