Going doorless soon and need a good mirror kit
This will be the first time I ever go doorless since owning the jeep and my state requires that I have mirrors. I've seen a lot of kits around and want to know which is the best to get. My friend warned me that the passenger side mirror is hard to see after I take the doors off. Are there any mirror kits that eliminate this problem?
In PA, we legally only need the rear view....but that sucks in traffic. You need at least a driver's side mirror. The old CJ replacement mirrors bolt right to the existing windshield bolts. You can leave the bracket there and install one bolt to put them on or take them off. Rugged Ridge has a quick release out now that is the exact same concept. I'm just not a fan of the round mirror on a JK. The square looks better and has a larger viewing area.
I use the old CJ universals because I had them laying around.

I also agree with the round mirrors on a JK, not my thing either. I was tempted to get Rugged Ridge's set but they seem kinda pricey. Do they move at all while you are driving? Are they shakey, move from wind while driving at high speeds etc etc. I have a motorcycle and my left mirror vibrates like crazy from the motor vibrations to the point where I can't see what's behind me. Just tyring to see if there's anything similar in the JK.
