Since it's just disconnecting the electrical plug to prove this problem, you should be able to take this to the dealer and get them to fix it. Knowing dealers they'll give you the old "they all do that", but show them on one of the new Jeeps that you know what you're talking about and insist that they fix it.

Not for JKs. There are no pins on JK doors. The computer "sees" when the door opens and closes, then the light is on a timer and dims after a few seconds. If the computer also "sees" if the door was disconected so it should shut down the lights when you remove the door. Obviously in the OP's case it didn't. It should be an easy fix by the dealer.

As far as the mirror relocation goes, you should get this or at least some other type of mirror. I know there are many other ways to do this and maybe someone will chime in that knows more about it. You can ride without side mirrors (not legally) but it is not recommended. (at least by me) I have done it, but did not like it. I use my side mirrors a lot and really missed them.
