Reviews for Quadratec Adventure Mirrors with Round Head for 76-23 Jeep Wrangler JL, JK, TJ, YJ, CJ & Gladiator JT
Great for install during the summer. However, nut on the bottom stops it from being a quick install. Going down the highway that will move a lot.
The window are nice and do vibrate very much. The only issue I have is they tend to blow in at normal driving speeds. They have machined in knurling to prevent this but it does not work well. I have to use a tool to get a little more tightness out of the knob. Otherwise they do the job.
Simple installation but the washers that came with the hardware are kinda cheap/weak and they bent when tightened. You really have to tighted the nuts or else the wind pushes the mirrors out of position at highway speed.
Theses mirrors were very easy to put on, but when traveling down the road they wobble from the wind, in town there great.
Quality product for the price but kind of hard to keep in place, especially at highway speeds.
I like the look of these, unfortunately I ran into a few problems.
1. I was unable to tighten the posts to the point where they wouldn't move. This became an issue when driving down the road @ 60mph and the passenger mirror post shifted in the wind and the mirror became useless.
2. The vibration on a stock 2017 Jeep in Park is enough to see vibration in both mirrors. I'm pretty sure this has to do with the lack of tightness on the posts.
3. The passenger side post where the threads start seems to be separating from the rest of the post. (it looks like they are 2 separate pieces with the threaded part inserted into the upper post.) Since only my passenger side post does that, i'm going to assume it was just broke when I got it. Basically I'm down to 1 mostly functional mirror.
These units use plastic washers to tighten, the mirrors constantly have to be re-adjusted as the plastic washers get smashed if you over tighten them.
For the price and the need, being street legal, these are ok. But they do not stay in place when traveling above 35 miles per hour. Shaking is crazy.
can't get them to stay in position any thing over 60 mph
They do move inward at high speeds. I bought some lock washers and that helped somewhat but the require constant futzing while driving.
