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

CMM here. A well-engineered product. Expensive? Yes, relative to cheap mirrors. Relative to the Jeep itself, still pretty inexpensive.

Another Carolina Metal Master mirror user checking in. I just wanted to comment, since size was mentioned, that I, too, thought the CMM mirrors seemed undersized. Especially for someone who'd only been driving "modern" cars with larger mirrors. I mean, I'm pretty young, compared to the old-farts around here, I've only been driving 5 years...J/K I've been driving since the 80s, and am over a half-century old, doh!

But back on topic, and seriously, I had thoughts about replacing the CMM mirrors with something bigger, but after driving hundreds of miles with them, they're perfectly sized. There's a RAM-type of ball on the end of them, too, so you can use RAM mounts for cameras or lights if you're into that.

The only "fault" I've found with them, and it's really my own fault, is that I forget to put them on. I guess I'm too eager to get out driving doorless...or it could be old age...probably both.

Can someone post pictures of their CMM mirrors, especially the mount. I like the design, but the pictures on the website show what looks like very poor machining on the mount. I hope that maybe they are just an early version or look better in person.

The lighting wasn’t the best in the garage just now. But here’s a pic of my CMM driver’s side mirror mount. Note that I installed the passenger side mount on the lower position on the driver’s side.

Thanks, it looks great from that angle, can you take a picture looking straight on at the handle?

I use a pair of Harley Davidson take off mirrors. They cost about $19-$29 for the pair.

Is this the angle you were looking for?

I was afraid I was not very clear. You can see a lot of tool marks on the image they use on the website. Is this what they really look like?

This thread, again?

CMM mounted in the lower position is the right answer.

No. Look at @Buffallobill14 ‘s picture, above.

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).

Me too. Very happy with them.

Oh, where did you get these? I like the look of these! How much vibration do you notice from these?

Any Harley Davidson dealership, just ask for take off mirrors. And no, no discernable vibration.

Can you guys confirm for me what the “normal” price of the CMM mirrors is? I see they are currently on sale for $140, listed as normally being $360. Is this the true non-sale price for them?
