for my side mirror I took a bolt, bent a small L bracket. and bought one of those cheap stick on convex mirrors like what you see on semis and blind spot mirrors. I didn't get the tiny one I got I think a 5" mirror. just drop the bolt thru 1 hole, and stick the mirror to the bracket. put the bolt thru the hinge hole, and thread a nut on it.. I can get a pic if you want lol

I got pulled over tonight by the police because I had my doors off and he couldn't see my side Mirror.

After going through his normal license and regestration check, the officer admited that he pulled me over to check out my rig and see how I did the door mod. So he could go home and cut the doors off of his XJ

well i've had the fronts for two years now i love it, i even rock them on warm days in january and i finally have the extra cash to get the backs... are they worth the money? i'd say yes. it really cleans up and smooths out the no door look. not that it doesn't look badass but to the average person they probably assume your door feel off. with the tube doors it kinda shows that i mean for it to be that way haha
