i bought a set off of ebay that work great. $70 but fit in the door hinge and are rectangle.
For the guy with the door ding in your cowl, I got a set of rugged ridge cowl covers for $40 that cover up that spot and offer great protection.

I too had the Olympic Safari mirrors. Used twice and couldn't stand the vibration rendering them useless.

I had the Olympic Safari style on my 2 door and the shook like hell and screwed up the paint on the hinge to get the anywhere close to tight. I now have the rugged ridge one with the permanent a pillar mounts and really like them a lot and would recommend them.

BTW, the vent mirror mod is not legal in MD and you will get pulled over if you don't have a "outside the vehicle" mirror on the driver side AND a rear view mirror on the inside where you can see at least 200 feet behind you from both. Just be sure to check your local laws...

It's super cheap, like less than $3 but most will find that they don't offer an real rear view that you can use.

I use the Rugged Ridge mirrors, they work great, look nice and I leave them on all the time.

Dietech offroad. A little pricey but exactly stock with minimal vibration
