Rugged Ridge passenger side Mirror Relocation - fix?
Since my rig is a daily driver, and have a 5" lift, need to see what's in the opposing lane and want to USE my passenger mirror to keep from rolling over someone.
Installed a dome mirror to help with the uselessness of the RR passenger side mirror relocation, but objects look like specs and are MUCH closer than they appear.
Are there any extensions for the passenger side? Or a better passenger side mirror relocation option out there?
Thanks for your help!

I don't know of any solution, but I chose not install the passenger side relocation bracket. I live without a passenger side mirror when the doors are off, but I have a useful mirror over there when the doors are on. People do not notice the mirrors are mounted differently until I point it out.
It shouldn't be too hard to rig up some kind of extension arm that attaches to the relocation bracket and brings the mirror forward a bit, but you'd have to make it yourself.
Good luck!

This member modified the RR passenger bracket to extend it out further.

thanks all - think i may return to stock too.
sad that rugged ridge, who makes decent mods, released a defective design to the consumers.
i would presume most, if not all, jeep owners would want something that performs versus 'for looks' which all the relocated passenger mirror is good for.
all they would need to do is extend another 2" on the passenger side.
