Alright, been looking at body mounted Doors Off Mirrors. So far I've only found three for JLs. Lange, Reno and a windshield hinge mounted ones.

Lange looks like it won't work with doors on, Reno looks like they dont extend far enough to be useful with Doors on (or doors off for that matter) and I think the windshield hinge ones look goofy. Any other brands out there that dont use the door hinge or grab handle? Or any JK body mounted ones that work on JLs if I use different hard ware?

The other part of this is I cant find a cap for where the door mirror mounts. Any solutions other than fabricating one?

For those who will ask why, I dont like the stock mirrors.

I went with the Coyote because you leave the base mount on the jeep, under the cowl. Here are some photos with the doors on and off.

They do not vibrate and rattle, I prefer the round mirror as it lets me see more. And i think it looks more retro with the round style, matches the headlights.

I am using Lange as well. They may work in place of stock mirrors, but I do prefer the stock mirrors to the Lang mirrors. They are a convex Mirror

Does the Lange have good visibility for the passenger side?

Quadratec have also one body month style
This looks like the mount isnt usable with doors on? Does the mount stay on or come off when the doors are attached?

Sits a little low. I haven't tried with doors on but I don't think it would be a good fill time mirror.

I say they are good enough on the passenger side. They work perfect for backing up, since they are convex you can see pretty wide. But what I use them mainly for is seeing my blind spots and just knowing I have someone behind me. I have a Wolfbox rearview camera mirror that runs pretty bright at night, so when I see I have someone behind me in the side mirror, a lot of times I will turn on my rearview as well, since I keep it off at night. If you've ever driven a tractor, these mirrors are like those. You're going to have a wider field of view than your factory mirrors, but it will be skewed just a little due to the convex round design.
