I run the one from Rugged Ridge. Our comes with easy to remove knobs and looks awesome. Never had any vibration problems while running them and it looks great.
I've got ones a lot like that, except they are round. Easy to put on and take off, if the bolts are tight enough they don't vibrate or move and they give a good view.
No photos before the tubular doors. But this setup is the same. A basic add-on round convex plus some hardware store bolts. Just put the bolt thru the doors hinge.
I have the Barricade brand re-locators. They are designed to be on even while the doors are still on. The passenger side is extendable, so as to clear the door jamb. They use the stock mirror. I am very pleased with them so far.

I wanted a solid mirror mount that maintained a factory look. I didn't want to fight tacking the factory mirrors off the doors. I bought the Die-Tech mirror mounts and a set of OEM manual mirrors. I've had the setup 2 years and they've been perfect.
I didn't really like any of the relo options and the associated door plugs. I also didn't want to have to remove my mirrors from the doors or buy a separate kit and another set of factory mirrors. So I ended up ordering these for a little less than $50 (forum discount)
Bofa, did you get them yet? I ordered these from Q-tec and got them today. The lock nuts don't thread onto the shaft squarely, you can't get them on without stripping the threads. I'm far from a first time wrencher, so I know how to put on a lock nut. I'm sending them back and looking for another inexpensive alternative.
I've got the quick release quadratec ones, there well made but you really need to tighten down the knob super tight so they don't move while your driving
I got these and hate them. You have to be Superman to get them tight enough...pain in the ass IMO. I will be glad to trade them for something more simple that just slides into the door hinge...
I have never used mirrors when going doorless. At least one mirror is required by law in N.C., but I stopped worrying about it when I went through a license checkpoint with no doors and the trooper's only comment was "nice Jeep."
I have the Dietechs (also, their "seat retainer bracket" for the 2-door). I love 'em, they're quick and put the factory mirrors in a near-factory location The ONLY downside so far is that if I decide to go with tube doors, I'll have to find an alternative.
That being said, this new solution from Quadratec is freakin' inspired, if not a little expensive. But really, isn't everything for our JKs?
I have the Just Add Mud mirrors, but haven't quite made up my mind about them. They're hard to adjust and move around a lot while driving. I am really thinking hard on going with a factory type replacement with the Die-Tech brackets.
Not sure why you are having these issues. I adjust mine once (once they are adjusted I have no reason to play with them) and they barely move at all for me on the road.
Sorta...... although it's a slightly different shape, and the passenger side mirror would be almost worthless.
