I have the Olympic mirrors and they do shake. I mostly use them just because its the law in some states. However, you can still see shapes and you still know if somebody is there, just can't see their face. Plus the doors are off so the blind spot is not that big. I couldn't justify spending more the $50 on a set just to appease the law enforcers out there.

Made these a wile back, they work great but I think I'm going to change the mirror parts to 5-6 inch round convex for better viewing

I struggled on my 2010 with the BODY ARMOR MIRRORS FOR TRAIL DOORS 5126 from Quadratec until I moved the doors to my 2012 and figured out if you don't extend the mirrors all the way it pretty much stops the vibration. They do need to be adjusted every couple of days or so but, they do work and look good. A blind spot convex mirror on each one helped as well, I now have great vision.
