Any pics of outlaw mirrors on a JK?

rdamaral · 04-03-2008, 09:51 PM

Cant decide on what mirrors to use without doors. Was really going to go with the relocation brackets and an extra set of factory mirrors, just so I could leave the originals on the doors.

I did see this mirror, but I think it's only the driver's side. Anyone have any info on these?

I'd like to see some pics of the outlaw mirrors, especially on a black JK

I bought the Lang Originals II, and only bought one (for the drivers side). My first time out doorless, I realized the Unlimited has a huge blind spot on the passenger side. So I bought the little blind spot mirrors and mounted one on the air vents on the passenger and drivers side. I now find myself using those more often than the Lang. You should try it out- costs under $10 for a package of 2. Simple and effective. And if you don't like, you're not out a lot of cash for the experiment.

I just scanned my photos and I don't have any. I love the Outlaws. They are easy and large and maintain a look of the stock (TJ) mirrors on my JK. The nice thing is you just slip them over the hinge.

As for the relocation brackets, lot's of folks end up mad when they notice the position of the passager side one. Almost makes it useless with the doors on. I noticed when we picked up my wifes new JK last week that the dealership had a few JK's with the old black tie package on them and only the Driver's side mirror was relocated.

Just some thoughts and again. I love the Outlaws and they are well worth the $$.

I use Harley Davidson motorcycle mirrors on my TJ....just slip em in the hinge where the door used to be. tghten the nut and drive away. Does anyone know if the harley mirrors work for the 07/08's?

I have not personally done or seen it... But was wheeling with a large group of JK last weekend, and one of those guys told me that was what he does.

The weather was off and on rain that weekend, so most people had their doors on.

That was my $20.00 solution before the Outlaws. Makes you legal, but dam tough to see anything.

On my 07.

I can't post just yet, but I have the outlaws and I love 'em. They are easy on and easy off. I do wish the passenger side was convex.

cheapest place to buy the Outlaws?

BirdsFanVa · 04-04-2008, 02:06 PM

I got mine from Qtec, but our club gets a 10% discount.

Shop around. I have seen them on ebay in the hundred dollar area new.

I have a black jk and outlaws. I haven't put them on yet since it's cold and rainy still.

Hate to resurrect an old thread - however I want to take the doors off my JK Sahara this summer and need some side mirrors. Looking at Harley mirrors it doesnt appear that the thread is long enough to fit through the door hinge and place a nut on it unless my eyes deceive me:

DELUXE ADJUSTABLE MIRRORS WITH DIE-CAST METAL HOUSING- - JCWhitney

anyone have a link to some cheap side mirrors that can fit in the door hinge? Ill be doing mostly low speed driving around the beach and not highway.

^^Looks like the stems are WAY to short on those

My problem is the Harley mirror just swings freely. haven't figured out a way to get tight and not have it just swivel towards the cabin when in motion. The nut only has about 1/2" of threading, and the bolt is much longer. placing a washer above the hinge makes it too short to get enough contact on the thread to tighten....without, not enough.
