A generally convex mirror (16) in is supported on stays (15) above a base (18). A smaller planar auxiliary mirror (23') is fixed to another set of stays (24). The stays (15) can pivot about the base (18), and the stays (24) can pivot about the back of the convex mirror housing (17), enabling the auxiliary mirror (23') to be brought above and in line with a vehicle towing hook (27) and the convex mirror (16) to be brought above and in line with the auxiliary mirror (23') when the base (18) is attached magnetically to the vehicle bodywork above the towing hook (27). The implement is used in combination with an approach-guiding wand (13) supported on a horse shoe (14) carrying balancing weights (14a, 14b) and projecting from a trailer hitch. A vehicle driver can first "sight" the towing hook (27) in his vehicle interior rear view mirror, and then reverse towards the trailer hitch using the convex mirror (16) and the wand (13) to position the hook accurately beneath the hitch. <IMAGE> |
