Looking for side mirrors for door-less driving. Soooo many options out there

[ForeOSU]

I want something simple that works. Don't need anything fancy. What have you all found that fits the bill? I see the prices range from $30-$179 or more.

We’ve got Lange Coyote mirrors and couldn’t be happier. Easy to install. Simple to use. No vibration or noise. Very pleased with their performance.

I ordered these last month, but they are not in stock yet.

JAM are full size and simple.

I like the Carolina Metal Masters personally but they are much smaller.

I was looking at these and the Rugged Ridge website shows they only fit Gladiators. Any reason they wouldn't fit Wranglers? I have to imagine the mounting area is the same.

I have the CMM mirrors also and love them. Yes they are smaller and very expensive, but the quality and design are great.

That being said, I'm not generally a big fan of the door hinge mirrors, but interested if anyone has experience with these JAM mirrors.

I second the Lange Coyotes. Love the look and quick and easy to take off and put on.

I use the Doubletake mirrors. Easy to install and absolutely no shaking, vibration, or movement in the mirrors at highway speeds (tested myself at 90 mph...LOL).

Love our CMM mirrors. Have had on the interstate doorless. No vibration. They are side view mirrors - not sure how they need to be any larger than the CMM. Worth every penny.

Another vote for CMM mirrors. I love them. They are expensive, but worth it IMO.

The only thing I changed is I switched the mounting location. Their instructions say to install using the top bolt of the A pillar handles, but I swapped the mounts from one side of the Jeep to the other and then used the bottom bolts on the grab handles. This puts the mirrors very close to the stock mirror position.

I've got the kikbax mirrors w/ footpegs (https://www.kikbaxoffroad.com/jeep_jljlujt_foot_pegs_wmirrors_jl_jl_unlimited_and_jt_kikbax_offroad). A bit pricey but:

1. they install easily and can't move out of place
2. they've got the footpeg which is neat

Great style, Awesome quality.

(note: on install the factory antenna gets in the way but does not cause an issue when driving. definitely not a reason to not buy... just something I noticed)

I got these as well at first. IMO they're a little more annoying to mount since you need to remove the two windshield nuts and mount these in place. It's not a big deal, and they look pretty clean (why I got em in the first place), but I found it easier to just throw something in the door hinges.

Kudos to Motor City for considering the threading direction and using stainless.

However, who wants to manipulate the (body colored painted) hinge bolt every time you take these on and off?

I like to keep it simple and stupid. The CMM mirrors have the mount that stays in the vehicle and when needed, the mirrors slide into it and you nut it on. I adjusted them once and not had to touch again to adjust even after taking on and off a few times.

I saw these on a Wrangler on this site. I didn't see on the Quadratec site that they were for a Gladiator only.
I like the round mirror shape.
