Be very careful when reviewing the ads on Amazon or elsewhere as some are for single units and some for pairs.

Don't have a Tundra, but this is a good question for everyone. I have a 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser. I ordered the ClearView towing mirrors, made in Australia. They make them to fit just about any vehicle including Tundra. They fit perfectly, installation very easy, and kept all the features of the OEM (though in 2002 there weren't many features). Had them for about 3 years now, work great, don't vibrate. I especially like the separate wide angle angle mirrors.

So has anyone added real tow mirrors to their Tundra, and if so, which ones, and how do they fit?

Here's the finished mirror. Trail Ridge on a 2015 Tundra.

My OEM mirrors had power tilt and heat. That's it.
But the wiring harness had about 10 leads, so they're wired for more than you need. I'll bet I'd have puddle lights too if I'd ordered the mirrors with them. I do have LEDs for turn and lights.
Obviously, you won't have power fold or BSM unless the body is equipped for them.

I have had the same experience. I came from a Tacoma where I installed towing mirrors to a Tundra with stock mirrors and find them adequate. Of course, the truck is much wider to begin with, and my 2007 Bambi is only 8' wide. YMMV

That is because it is a blind spot that you could have not seen it Couldn't resist not saying it.

Now that I've lived with the Trail Ridge Tow mirrors, for a few months, I can say they are just what I wanted.
The first trip I was looking for vibration, and I could find a tiny bit, like hitting a tar strip or pothole but I realized I probably had the same amount with the OEM mirrors. Once I just drove, I found them to be perfect.
