I know they make side mirrors that install at different frame locations, and it seems they all have similar complaints related to vibrations, not staying in place. I was wandering if they make mirrors where one can secure to either side of the rear view mirror and point them sideways. Visibility would not be obstructed by the doors.

I had the Kikbax on the JK and loved them. I also ordered the CMM but canceled the order after waiting for 3 months without a product but they do look great. A Harley Davidson motorbike mirror also fits nicely into the hinge but wont work with safari doors.

Carolina Metal Masters make the best solution - they are pricey, but worth it.
This is the correct answer. Check out @swampcat14 review of them: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...masters-side-mirrors-with-1-ball-mount.23903/

Some of us mount them on the bottom of the grab handle. I like them there because it puts them at the same height as the stock doors-on mirrors. I also went with the ball delete version, as I’ve nothing I’d ever want to mount on a ball. I love how when the mirrors aren’t attached the grab handles still look factory. Well worth the $$, and CMM always run promo codes for 10% or 15% off.

OP, check out other discussions on mirror choices which include some DIY solutions.

I like my Doubletake Enduro mirrors with a Ram ball attached where a bolt went into the factory cowl that wraps around to the fender and a short Ram arm.

Those look awesome, man. Thanks for sharing. I just added a bumper/winch so need to let the credit card breathe a bit, but then I'm gonna have to order 'em.
I got them from Amazon. I only got 2. Leave the back on for the dogs. The were really inexpensive. Think $230 for the fronts.
