It makes me wonder why there isn't something like you see on a lot of pickups now...where they have extendable mirrors (for uses when pulling trailers or having a camper on). Pull it in with doors off, push it out with doors on?

If you've done a lot of searching, I'm sure you have found these. I would think they are stable at high speeds. I don't know how well you can see them with the doors on.

I use these. I leave the bracket on and slide the mirror in when the doors come off. It shakes around a good amount at higher speeds, but that doesn't bother me. as long as I can see a big metal object coming up behind me.

Can't say how that second set is. Never used them.
There are lots of threads on here about mirror relocation. Do an advanced search for mirror relocation and look in titles only.
Edit: I did the search for you.

The first one is definitely stable at high speeds. The problem with them is that only about 25% of the passenger side mirror is left usable. I bought them, installed them, used them, and have since removed them.

I bought these little clip mirror, there supposed to be used to clip on the visor so you can see a baby in the back seat. I got them at an auto parts store. I clip them between the plastic and the metal on the door. The don't shake, there cheap, fast and offer minor visibility.

Huh? I even verified it after I posted. Maybe it's a cache thing. Oh well, here is what I did.
- Click Advanced Search in the upper right corner of the screen below Settings and Log Out.
- Under the Search For section enter "mirror relocation" in the Keyword(s) field.
- In the adjacent drop down field beside Keyword(s) change selection to "Search Titles Only"
- Click "Search Now" box in the bottom right corner of the Search For section.

for real guys? this is one of the worst solutions out there. not only do you have to move the mount every time you put the doors on/off, you even have to unbolt the mirror itself and move it. FAIL!
so far the best thing going is this:
