Putting useable mirrors on your Jeep

Putting useable mirrors on your Jeep

why installed new mirrors on my CJ7

It felt like I had to readjust my rear view mirror every time I wanted to change lanes, and the passenger side mirror - forget about it. I get envious of the fancy TJ mirrors, and finally decided to do something about it.

What you'll need:

Socket set
Torx (or star) bits
Small wrench (to get up under the
windshield)
Some friction increasing liquid really
helps (Get it from Sears)

I purchased new TJ mirrors from Quadratec.
I wasn't in the mood to drill a bunch of holes in my windshield frame, so I splurged
bought some of Sun performance's mirror movers (also from Quadratec).
A picture of just the mirror mover is to the left.
It can be really difficult to get the old Torx bolts
out. If they break, you may have to drill them out.

Step 2

Once the mirror mover is onyou're really home free. Just put the mirror on, tighten the large nut, and adjust
