Hey guys, i am interested in everyones different mirror choices, I am undecided and am leaning towards j**p that attach to windshield or utv type mirrors that clamp onto roll bar for summer with the doors off.
I searched the other mirror thread but its 3 years old and i just thought maybe there were some new ideas or new members since then.
Thanks
Tim

mid 80's junkyard specials from an f series truck, super cheap and abundant as well as affective and they fold in which has been more than useful on several occasions out on the trail.

Mine are the same as raptors only scuffed up and painted black. $15.00 a side at the salvage yard. They haven't been installed yet though.....

Here's mine from a Montero. They aren't as big as the 80's Ford Truck mirrors, fit the body lines, convex passenger, and fold out of the way with out loosing the adjustment.

Heres mine - came from eBay I think it was for a motorcycle. Had to fab up my own mounting plate and cut down the shaft a bit but it came out nice.

If you want a bigger mirror check out what 73stallion did on his rig - FJ mirrors.

Remote adjustable and narrow field of view on a lifted bronco. But it's got style.

I have a set of mirrors that where made by Mike Bowlin. Got them about 5-6 years ago.

I get the most questions about these mirrors from this board than anything else I have done on the Bronco.......seriously guys, I have done other things to the bronco too;D

Good ol stock type on my rig:( ...the door had a hole in it so had to put something there or weld up the hole, which seemed like a lot of work! But I have a nice rear view with map lights....now if I could just get that original RV mirror mounting ball off of my new tinted windshield;D If you look at a supplier like 4WD, they have about 50 different Heep mirror choices for you to pick from.

I don't have any side mirrors--luckily only '68 and up are required to have them to pass inspection in MO. I only have a wide rear view attached to the windshield from a full-size F-150.

I made the mirrors one weekend while waiting for parts to come from BCB. The color is a little off from the stock blue that Ford offered in the 60's, I had it mixed at the local paint supply.
