I thought about the relocating bracket but my thought was to only use them without the doors. When I put the doors back on I had planned to move the mirrors back to the doors? Is this not how they work?
Thanks,
Tim

I have power mirrors on my factory full doors and wanted to leave them on the doors, that's why I opted for a mirror that goes on easy when the doors are off and comes off easy when it's time to put the hard doors back on.

I use these Die-Tech Off-road Mirror Brackets and a second set of mirrors (Rugged Ridge). It's an expensive way to go but it works well.

K-Source Truck Mirror without the bipod frame. Works well on passenger side, I added a spotter on both sides and some bedliner. Here's my contribution (with specs) to another mirror thread: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/modi...5/#post3594199

I went to my local Harley dealer and they would not sell me any of their take off mirrors. I just put the doors back on until I can find a mirror that works for me, thanks for all of your help and input.

I bought 2 small motorcycle mirrors at Chapparel in San Bernardino. $15.00 and I am legal.

I did a modified Rugged Ridge Mirror (excuse the bug guts in the picture)... And coated it with Duplicolor Bed Armor. And as others have said, the passenger side sucks... But, I have spare parts. LOL

I spent $15 on this. Picked up a round mirror at my local truck stop. Also needed one 2 1/2" long 5-16 bolt, flat washer and lock washer and finally a fence bracket. Had to trim the bracket a bit but works well. I plan on shooting the bracket black when I take it off next time. I may hit up my local motorcycle shop though. Great ideas!

go down to your local Harley Davidson Dealership and see if they have a set of take-offs. You should be able to pick a set up for next to nothin, maybe 15 bucks for a pair. All you need then is a 1/2" flange nut per side. they don't shake at speed or move.
