I had the relocation brackets for a week and didn't like them. I agree with gary6321. I purchased a set of DieTech mirror brackets and an extra set of mirrors. Doors off, mirrors on. Only takes a few minutes.

There was a thread on here I can't seem to find of a fella who used the CJ relocation mirrors. It looked awesome. They stand further out then the JK mirrors, not sure about vibration though. Just a suggestion.

Is there an extension post for the mirror or is there an alternative to http://www.quadratec.com/products/13125_5000.htm

any other suggestions - solutions appreciated.. I'm not sold on these and I really do like to drive and be able to see my blind spot.
Yep, same thing happened to me with the rugged ridge relocation kit. My solution? I removed the passenger side mirror. Done.

Mirrors are too distracting. Look forward!

I cant either, the passanger side is useless unless ur doors are off, get a little wal mart stick on convexed mirror and put it upper right of miorror it gives enough to be able to see curbs when parking and stuff.
