Does anyone have this? http://www.quadratec.com/products/13111_512.htm
I'm looking for an alternative to the motor cycle mirrors..

It doesn't include passenger side though but this looks good.

I thought about that one, but I don't like that it included it's own mirror, and was only for the drivers side.

I went with the rugged ridge relocation brackets. I painted the cover plates to match and just put them and the doors back on tonight, so no pictures of that yet.

Here's what it turned out like though, I like it...




Only driven a little with the doors back on, but so far, the passenger side isn't bothering me yet. With the door there, I can only see about 2in of it, but moving my head to the right a bit clears it up.

Are those mirrors on your air vents?

Yea, I saw it suggested somewhere when I first took the doors off (this is my first jeep).

Worked "ok" in the absence of any real mirror, but sealed the deal in making sure I went with a more permanant solution.

They're not even there now, I had the doors off for the last 4 days, and driving to work early in the morning in 49 degree weather, I had the heater on and pointing at me. Evened out the temp perfectly, but the heat softened the glue, lost one mirror over the side at 40mph, and the other landed in the floorboard, LoL.

Reminds me, I need some goo-b-gone.

I hope you didn't use Krazy Glue. That stuff is Krazy. I tried every chemical known to man to get that off of my dash. I even wiped Acetone on it and I still can't get the glue stains off my dash (from my cell phone holder that broke) lol.

I didn't want mirror relocation brackets because I didn't like the hole it left... it might be my only option. I don't need a passenger mirror.. it's nice but that's just a modern convenience

I wouldn't recommend the rugged ridge mirror relocation brackets as shown in the previous thread. I have them... but don't have my passenger side mirror anymore. Turns out since they dont accept the mirror the same way as the factory mounts adjusting the mirrors tends to loosen the mounting screw for the mirror. On a ten hour trip i guess there was enough vibration to shake the screw out and my mirror is history.

Wow that really sucks.. I don't really want a relocation bracket, I'd rather have a new mirror replacement.
