I bought a round mirror at Advanced Auto for $10.. Actually, LESS than $10 with promo code TRT30!! 30 percent off... Anyway, it came with a three inch bolt that fits perfectly in to the door hinge and the mirror itself has 3 different tightening points. I get zero movement at highway speeds. I simply store it in the back of the jeep when not in use along with an adjustable wrench and when I pop the doors off, BAM... I slap it on in 20 seconds.

Do you need BOTH side mirrors in your state? In Virginia where I am, we only need the driver side. I don't have a great picture of it, this is all I have at the moment. For $10 or less, you can't beat it!!

I've been using these for the past 3 years and LOVE EM. They don't move a bit and look great!

Did these last week. Pep Boys about $16 each. I have since plasti dipped them black and put a thick rubber washer between mirror and A post. Some vibration, but not too bad.

Same as above ^^ but mount mine on the door hinges with bolts and urethane washers. Super easy on and off.

Harley mirrors. Got a longer socket head bolt, ground it down so it fit inside and flush. Poly-washers and lock nuts.
