jeepmon Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 anyone know of mirrors that will fit on a 92 that are a little wider than stock?
Exgrayxj Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 :agree: Did this on my '90, even with the vent window post there visibility is much better. Couldn't find any manual ones, so got a pair of power ones, and cut the wires, I just move the glass around to where I want it and shazam, good to go.

Works perfectly.
HOrnbrod Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Why didn't y'all p/u a switch and wire up the power mirrors?

shelbyluvv Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 I like my first gen Ranger towing mirrors.
88whitemanche Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Got lazy and got really tired of the mini mirrors plus it rained 5min after that pic I took
Exgrayxj Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Why didn't y'all p/u a switch and wire up the power mirrors? If you could only see my truck, it would answer the Q. I had the tiny plastic Wrangler type, and the right was broken, the truck needs other stuff, and PM's just aren't in the plan ... maybe later with some power windows? and maybe, possibly, somewhere down the road, is a door swap, I just needed to see where the enemy was. And, Don, best reason I can give, THEY WEREN'T CHROME! JK (also my initials)
HOrnbrod Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Yep, they never made the later XJ mirrors in chrome. :cry: If you decide to wire them up let me know - can send a wiring diagram.
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 So, are the 97+ mirrors a direct fit?... just unbolt the old and bolt up the new? I've never explored this before and this thread has piqued my curiosity.

johnj92131 Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Why didn't y'all p/u a switch and wire up the power mirrors? I used a power mirror switch from an Isuzu Rodeo. Put it in the blank spot right between the light switch and the steering column. Looks and works great. Way better than trying to adapt/install the Cherokee mirror switch. And shorter wire runs.
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 http://comancheclub....added-6-may-09/ Thanks hornbrod. Looks like I need to visit the DIY section more.
willi2ds Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I ran with the newer mirrors on and dealt with the post/wing for a while, I just swapped in the newer doors w/no posts. What a difference!!!
