Default doorless mirrors

Now that it is getting ready to cool down I have taken my doors off. Only problem is that I must have side mirror(s) to be legal. Does anyone have any suggestions and pics of doorless mirrors. I would prefer ones that fit in the door hinges so that I can pop them right on but am open to any and all suggestions.

This is all over the forum but a lot of people go to a Harley shop and get some for pretty cheap and they fit in the hinges

I've been using HD mirrors for two summers. I've had my doors off since May. They'll get you by and are probably the best bang for the buck. I have a set of the new Rugged Ridge mirrors on order, since July 1st. Last I heard, Quadratec would have them in stock the middle of this month.

Used Lange quick release II (mount to windshield) and was happy with them. They also make another version (quick release I) that sit in the upper door hinge. Pretty sure they are the same except for the mount.

Olympic also makes a set I think (run cheaper). A set of these is only slightly more then one of the Lange mirrors.

I saw a set of those harley mirrors on a JK last weekend and they look real good, fit right in the hinge.

I bought the mirror brackets from die-tech, they reuse your factory mirrors from your jk doors. Pretty good an didnt vibrate at all. Good buy

i have the rugged ridge and most of the summer used them since june, doorless, but don't really like the fact the the passenger side is pretty much useless cuz the dash blocks most of it(only thing they do is make you legal).... some suggest a cheap "all angle" mirror but i don't like that look....

i'm looking for alternatives.....
