I looked at Amazon, there are several that look like this. Do you remember the number? Like 44800 or or 44700?

You are THE MAN! I've been looking for something cheap. The auto parts stores around here just carry mirrors for like older model chevy trucks. Most of them are like 30 bucks and I'd need to modify them. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!!

I don't know if all will work, but as long as they are bolt-on, I would think you are good. Mine bolt up from the bottom while others have the threaded rod as part of the arm itself.

I bought the long stem ones, but I'm sure most would work. Here's a link:

But so far, they work great, keep legal, have a good broad view, and despite the vibration and whistles, it takes you back to the old days of the Jeeps. And if you break one, just buy another mirror head for around $5. What I like most about it is that I don't have to do the switcheroo for doors on/off. Have plenty good vision with/without doors.
Where did you get your coverups(not sure the term) for your factory mirrors?

Thanks! These are what I have been looking for. I won't mind the vibration.
