I actually really like them, part of the reason I have just not made time to install the door mirrors. I went with the setup from Carolina Metal Masters, Only down side is I bump my head on them every now and then getting in.

68358392AB is what I have. If there’s a 2dr specific one, I’m not sure what would be different. The back window (maybe all 3?) is the same size, I’d imagine.

My guess is the Quadratec description is just wrong.

Asked Quadratec that very question 2dr windows are larger and do not fit in the bag.anyone found one that will work?

They are wrong. I have a 2dr and the bag, and the windows fit just fine. Better than fine, they fit like a hand in a glove. The back window is the widest of the three, remember, so it makes no difference if the side windows are longer on a JL than on a JLU. (They only consume about 2/3 the width of the bag. The back window consumes 100% of the width of the bag.)

I’ve seen the threads with pictures of Smittybuilt bag and of the custom mom & pop offering. Both of those bags are a “baggy” fit (see what I did there?) I’m extremely happy with the MOPAR offering.

Stopped in the gym this morning and my Jeep made a friend while I was working out.

Chad, what rock rails do you have?

ACE Rock Sliders. Wanted to keep the rubi rails, think this is the only option for that at this time.

Well I guess I better step up my game! Lately I’ve been feeling rather glum...

Crazy busy at work & lots going on outside of work. I think there’s an end in sight though! Yaaaaay for that! Time to get back to bouncy & positive & forum fun!!

Hope your day got better, Lydia!!!
Busy time at work for me as well. Aren’t summers supposed to be quiet?! Clearly just a myth...

i like the attachment a whole lot! did you order direct? i might try these, i like them.

All right you all.... you are having to much

@jlopes68

You order them direct from CMM. Takes them about 2+ weeks to get them to you. Suggest you WAIT a few days before ordering as supposedly CMM is going to have a different improved ?offering ... perhaps a longer stem and bigger diameter mirrors.. Watch CMM's website as they said the offering will be listed in a few days.

Owner's of the current model say mirrors to small and stem could be longer.......

@cmb

Mount it lower as some CMM mirror guys have. That may help you.......

Yes I ordered direct. I really don't mind the small mirrors.
