I wasn't happy with what I was finding for mirrors, either cheap junk or expensive. So I made my own, or at least the brackets. The mirrors I got off Amazon for $15 a piece.

The bracket attached to the roll bar is 2" angle. I got longer bolts and used an oversized nut for a space to attach it. The mirror arm is 1" angle. I put a thin piece of plastic between the 2" and 1" angle so it'll swing easier.

The 2" angle sticks out a little further forward than needed but that is because I plan on using it to attach a light bar later on.

Simple, I like the design, and nice right up.
Do you have a link to the mirrors?
If I copy it....ahem, I mean... design my own.. haha! :) 👍
I think the only thing I would do different is use a nylon locknut for the bottom nut.
As many trees as I hit my mirrors on now, it will just turn and the nut will not come loose.

Have a good day
