Default Mirror Relocation Brackets

I have been researching different options for relocating my mirrors. I can't wait to get the doors off!

I came across these http://www.dietechoffroad.com/produc...rorbracket.htm
and wanted to know if anyone is using them.

They look nice.

I'm going to get the ones from dietech. Also gonna get a new pair of mirrors probably from EBay so I don't have to remove mirrors off the doors everytime I remove the doors then having to put them back on.

I have these brackets and love them. Also got a set of mirrors off ebay and never used them. I ended up doorless all summer and never needed both sets. The mirrors were rugged ridge and look just like the stockers. The only issue I had was the posts are slightly wider and you will need to grind some metal off to get them to fit. If I had it to do over I would not get an extra set of mirrors. If you were going back and forth alot during the season I could see the need. Mine is not a dd and when the weather isn't right it stays covered and I drive something else. I Just put the doors back on and it didn't take that much extra time to move the mirrors.

Has anybody thought about trying something like this, modifying it to fit where the Rugged Ridge relocation brackets go? I know they're huge, but I really think they might look pretty cool!

Not sure how you'd modify the bolt pattern to line up. Seems like a LOT of work, and it would be tough to make it neat.
