Show off your mirrors thread

I used the mirrors from an H2 with the billet base plates and covers. Rather shiny I know, but it fits the look of my rig (you can leave them all black which is also cheaper). The thing i like about these mirrors are that they look tough and the visibility is great. Only problem is that they are kind of heavy so we fabricated a mounting plate the mounts inside the door to keep the exterior door skin from distorting.

I still have mirrors when you fold down the windshield and the don't shake from the wind hitting the windshield.

Like anything you can pay to much if your in a hurry but if you keep checking eBay you can get some pretty good deals on them. Here is a link for example:

Plus one more cool thing about them is if you want, you can hook up the power adjust feature and heated mirror if you want.

While I was looking I came across the H3 mirrors which you might like instead:


I also found a picture of these mirrors which came up when I was searching ebay. Don't know what they are for but it says it is for an H3 (they are selling the cheap chrome cover) but I think it is a stock photo and they just change the name for whatever actual product they are selling. Could be good if you could mount them to the windshield frame so you could still remove the doors.

they weren't too bad, about $97 a piece. did require a little trimming to make fit.

I have $75 in my passenger side one. Thats the FJ mirror with lights. The factory lights are not good but there is an easy conversion to put a good light there. I have a line on a drivers side one but they want $99 bucks, and thats with the light.

You can find deals if you are patient. I missed a couple opportunities to buy them at $150 for a lighted pair.
I think they are the most modern looking mirror you can get for an EB. (I also owe the idea to 73stallion)

For these FJ mirrors, TRD Parts 4 U is a pretty good source for Toyota OEM parts. I buy from them for my '85 pick-up, and they are usually 25-40% lower than list price.

If anyone is interested in the Fj mirrors that are sprayed textured black there is a pair for sale at the FJ Cruiser Forum for $75.

UTV Mirrors

These are off a Kubota UTV - 14.00 for this one.

The Kubota was the only one I found with a 2" bar clamp. It is cheap, doesn't wobble, and is out of the way when I get in and out of the truck.

anyone here use these? they look like the jeep mirrors.

 

[AGShelby]

Odd that they put their label over the mounting point ..

Can't see how they are mounted with that label. Makes me wonder what they are covering up - there is plenty of room in the photo to move their label. Note they covered the mounting points on either side with a separate label.

"Note: Mirror mounting does require drilling of 4 small holes in window frame. Detailed installation instructions are included."

Still seems fishy to me... I'd pass.

Heres the mirror I run with the tube doors.
