Side mirror extensions and/or camera system?

Planning to tow a trailer with my 2015 GL350. Anyone have a recommendation for side mirror extensions? I'm also considering camera systems mounted on the rear and sides of the trailer instead of mirror extensions. Would appreciate any thoughts and recommendations.

I did purchase extension mirrors, fitted them on the GL350, put them in the storage box on my trailer then, in my closet waiting to put them on Craigslist, never used. $85 if you want them and pay shipping - Dometic DM-2912 Milenco Grand Aero3 Towing Mirror - Twin Pack.

Thanks for your reply to me. I looked at them today at Can-Am.
Please look at this link and let me know if you would consider revising your asking price. PPL also has the Aero 2 tear drop which is pretty nice and aerodynamic for $69.99.

I would opt for the larger Grand Aero 3 if the ML mirrors are the same as the GL's. If your side mirrors are smaller and won't support the Grand Aero 3 then the Aero 2 is what you want - depends on your use. If you are in the Phoenix area, I would do $80 and we could arrange for transfer. Otherwise looks like you found some good pricing...Good luck and safe towing...
