Looks like I will give the Rugged Ridge ones a try. I would actually get too much crap from my buddies if I put a Harley part on my Jeep. I ride a Goldwing and a BMW 1200GSA, and would never hear the end of it!

Appreciate the input, this helps

I second that! I have had mine on permanently for about a year now and love them. The one drawback is that with the doors on the passenger mirror viewing area is cut in half. I remedied that with some stick on Walmart corner mirrors. Doors off they're great IMHO.

That looks like the ones I have too... Although they look good, They suck with the doors on for sure. I can't see my passenger side mirror with the doors on without basically getting out of my seat to do so. I wouldn't even be able to see the corner Walmart mirrors either.
As you mentioned... They do work out great taking the door on and off. No mirrors on my doors at all.

I use F-18 canopy mirrors mounted on a bunch of hardware from Lowes that attaches to the upper door bracket. Canopy mirrors are kind of hard to come by though, we only change them when they're broken.

American Outlaw JK mirrors. Not the cheapest, but well made, a strong mirror housing, no vibration at all (unlike others I've tried) and well worth getting for years of abuse and use (how long will others last ?)

Throw mine under the rear seat when not in use, and very quick to attach/detach.

Got these from auto zone 14.99 each. Have to drill out the plastic. Base but does the trick.

Rampage mirrors from Quadratec...identical to the Rugged Ridge as far as I can tell..1/2 the price! Had them for about a year, work great. Very minimal vibration with good visibility. The only downside that I can think of are that they create a little whistle with the wind hitting them.

This is what I use and I love them. Email them and ask for a discount, I think they give 10% to us like most others do. The are also being sold by some of the big vendors on here.
