I picked up the Lange Outlaw II mirrors. $60 from Q*. I'm very happy with them, though they do seem to whistle a bit (need to check into that).

Nicely done! The '03 TJ I had, I bought aftermarket mirrors from jcwhitney that mounted to windshield hinge. Crap design! Couldn't see outta passenger side and all the hardware was crap and rusted!

I got these same mirrors, and The whistling bothered me very much. It's and easy fix though. If you look, the rubber that goes around the outside of it hangs over and has a lip on it. that is what is causing the whistle. I took a knife and cut that overhang so that it is flush. no longer whistles. Let me know if this helps you out.

P.S. I only trimmed the side farthest from the jeep, and it fixed it.
