Why are Wrangler mirrors attached to the doors?

[Rufus]

I'd say there's a difference between tradition and a gimmick. Quick release mirrors would be great, but the wiring makes that difficult especially with the advanced safety group/bsm indicator built in. Too many government regulations and sue happy morons to include a simple quick release mirror for doorless use. I'm just amazed so many are able to unbolt, unplug, remove, and store doors yet are hung up on simple, unregulated, drop in aftermarket mirrors.

Gimmick masking as tradition I’d say.

If everybody bought Sport S models we wouldn’t have the wiring issues . But you’re right the cost of implementing a solution likely isn’t justifiable when they can just send people to the aftermarket. Most jeeps I see in the summer don't even have their doors off. I doubt that having that feature would affect sales in the slightest.
