Default Mirror Relocation Brackets

So i was at truckfest here in atlanta back in september and I ordered some mirror relos from 4wheelparts that came with a filler plate to cover the hole on the door once you remove the assembly. Well I just got them today and apparently, they just sold me rugged ridge instead of the other brand. Unfortunately, this new brand does not come with said filler plates.

Does anyone know where i can pick up just the plates??? I have been unusually patient with 4wheelparts and I am a bit perturbed that they gave me the wrong kit.

Granted... i got a steal on these brackets only paying 25 bucks for them (retail 67 or something) but i really do not want two GAPING holes on the side of my jeep.

Any ideas for a custom fab worst case scenario??

Stickers!

another thought would be to stop at the dealership and order two more "Train Rated" badges and see if they fit. (Might be a better location for them.

If you ordered Rugged Ridge, and paid for Rugged Ridge you demand to get what you paid for. I don't care if it's a steal or not, price shouldn't matter, a vendor needs to deliver what you pay for. Send them back, and politely tell them to send you what you actually ordered.

oh... so i just installed them.. and these "identical" brackets can only be used with the doors off. so bottomline... i would have to take off the doors... install the brackets... take the mirror off the door... bolt it onto the bracket... and then reverse that process EVERY time i wanted mirrors without doors.

GAY GAY GAY!

oh well.. i ordered from a different company and will returning the product to 4wheelpart tomorrow.

Look in the write up section. If I can recall right somebody bought the relocate bracket and then moved their mirrors. The hole that is left they bought I think from Home Depot door knob stops. Like the ones you would put on a wall to keep the door knob from going thru. They then bought a can of touch up paint to match from the dealer ship(spray paint). HERE IS THE THREAD FOR YA. hope it helps
