Mirrors For Doors Off Question

[JasonInDLH]

Just curious what you all use for mirrors when you take the doors off?

I would do this Quadratech product (below) in a heartbeat to retain the power function (but only available from 11’-18’ model years). I have a 21’ JLUR.

IF, you are going to be running with the doors off lots, DI invest in a CMM mirrors.... pricey but when the time comes you can resell for much of what you paid for them.. You will not find a better set of mirrors for the JL/JLU/JT.

If you are just going to poke around town, slow driving and just want to have mirrors mainly to appease law enforcement..... then but a $20+- set of scooter mirrors as the install easily and do the job of meeting laws and your seeing back there pretty good.

Until you do your research ... if you want a set of mirrors that are not all that bad and only cost $8.00+- ...

Buy a set of elcheapo side mirrors ($8.00 each) that install via the cowl bolt(s) .. Easy, fast install.

I can't vouch how the mirrors fair at 60 mph but.... 8-) Having side mirrrors installed make you legal in many states. so these would do the trick at least in regard to that legality.

Thanks for the responses, fellas.

I’ll be looking into those CMM as a couple of you mentioned them.

Those CMM mirrors are pretty small (I’m half blind already, so I need some bigger mirrors). I did see someone install larger rectangular mirrors to the CMM that looks great…

It's the CMM mounts that are terrific..... much wanted..... the mirrors themselves are mirrors... so, sure you could do as in the picture above....

Or, if you want to spend way too much time looking at a million different ways to mount a mirror on a stick to the jeep, search the forum.

If you are looking for oem-style i think the mopar mirrors are a good option.

i love my CMM mirrors but they are more a trail-style mirror.

Another option for an OEM look : DIE-TECH Off-Road Mirror

I run without side mirrors typically from May-ish to Sept-ish, never had an issue over the last 18 years. Colorado (and I believe Minnesota as well) only requires one mirror with an unobstructed view, the center mirror works for this. I do not feel it's dangerous, I have never had a close call due to not having side mirrors, with the top and doors off visibility is fine in all directions if you turn your head, the center mirror gives you plenty of visibility farther back. I see a lot of people feel the need for mirrors, so maybe the four door has much worse visibility and I don't realize it.

Minnesota Statute 169.70 seems to be the only thing that addresses mirrors in that state.

169.70 REAR VIEW MIRROR.
Every motor vehicle which is so constructed, loaded or connected with another vehicle as to obstruct the driver's view to the rear thereof from the driver's position shall be equipped with a mirror so located as to reflect to the driver a view of the highway for a distance of at least 200 feet to the rear of such vehicle.

I love my CMM mirrors. I use tube doors so the ones that fit in the door hinge are not a good option. You can also get a lock for your pricey CMM mirors.
