I added the later XJ mirrors to both my MJ and XJ.  I like the slightly larger size and the fact they don't fall apart at the joint like the originals.  Some people don't like the styling though.  I will say it is some work, you have to remove and carefully trim the stainless steel door trim to make the mirrors fit.

How is this Mirror attached to the door?

If you are talking about the small one, it was screwed to the door with two screws.  There was a small plate that was pop riveted to the inside of the door that had two threaded holes.  The mirror attached with screws to that.  It had a similar (but different) mirror on the pass door that was just screwed straight into the door.  Not sure if that was factory or the pass was added later, either at the dealer or by a previous owner.

 

If you are talking the later style mirrors, they are held to the door post with three bolts from the inside.
