Mirrors for when doors are removed?
What are our options for mirrors when the doors are removed? I dont wanna do the mirror relocation things, so Id prefer just an add on mirror that could be slapped on quickly. Seems like ive read about them on here, but couldnt think of where they came from or a brand name. Any info is appreciated.

I think you mean the Harley mirrors folks are fitting into the hinges.

I have been looking at using these. Don't go buying them all up because if nothing else I am going to buy a pair of these. Whether I can afford the soft-top this year it doesn't matter. If nothing else the hard top and doors are coming off and I will just carry a tarp with me

Got these to solve the problem to your question
Check out the Rugged Ridge mirror relocation kit. I've had these for a year and half...no issues...solves the problem...just have a little less visibility on the passenger side - no biggie..just turn your head and look

Texas only requires a single mirror, rear view will legally suffice, but I felt a little lost without the side view mirrors, accustomed to driving it like it's a semi. Tried the stick on 2" spot mirrors on the AC vents and didn't care for the coverage, couldn't see the driver side rear fender pulling into the garage. Hit the search function and ended up going by the Harley dealer. My sig has the part number for the drivers side and Jiblet's link has a pic in post #8. They rocked 
even at 80 there was no vibration, no movement, i.e. they did not slowly rotate inward and become useless. Use the supplied cone washer on top of the hinge tube and the acorn nut on the threads. On 2010's the threads will just barely protrude past the bottom of the hinge tube but the supplied acorn nut will grab and tighten just fine. Supposed to rain the next 3 days so I reinstalled the doors tonight. After removing the mirrors I did a damage inspection and found none. For me Harley supplies the perfect solution for $60 a pair, requiring only a 1/2" socket to install. Did the install in their parking lot. Just my two centavos. 
Did I mention I had a blast?

American Outlaw
I have American Outlaw mirrors which I carry around in the boot. So when we arrive at a camp just remove the doors and a quick allen key operation to attach mirrors. They vibrate a little at speed but are fully useable on the trail and the highway. The passenger side mirror is fully visible too.
