This is the size of the shipping container. There are 15 inches in length to the box. The rear view mirror on this Jeep is standard. A bit over 8 inches wide by 2 inches thick
As long as it fits the factory bracket, yes. The last time I replaced mine was I was able to slip this mirror right on without any problem after removing the old OEM mirror. A new mirror took only 30 seconds to install.
I'm not sure if it will fit to the original bracket on the windshield of my 07 Jeep Wrangler. I'm not certain if it will fit to the windshield bracket that came with the Jeep.
My assumption is it would work, but I have not yet

I don't know why this item is marketed exclusively for Jeep vehicles, but contrary to popular belief, it can be mounted on other vehicles as well. It's the same size and style of the original Ford Ranger mirror I had in my older Ford Ranger and it was able to fit on my original mount even though the site says it won't work on my car. It's sold in a kit with adhesive installed, too. The construction is a bit less square and more rounded than the OE mirror I had, but it is still a solid choice for replacement. After searching for my truck, I was unable to find any decent options, so I had to remove my garage filter to find it. The only thing I dislike about the packaging is that the parts are not packaged professionally. I went ahead and replaced the mount for peace of mind since I got the kit and there were no issues. With a wad of packing paper, the mirror and adhesive were thrown in loosely with the mount. A protective film or cover was not present on the mirror surface, and minor marks appeared to be the result of contact with the packaging paper during transit. As a result, I was able to let it slide since it looked so much better than the nearly completely delaminated mirror it had replaced.
A high-quality mirror such as this is available. Those measurements are the same as those of the mirror I removed. The mirror fits my 06 Jeep TJ just fine. I left the old button attached and glued the new mirror on despite the fact that it comes with a button In all, it took maybe one minute to install. A friend of mine would recommend this to me.
On the back of the mirror, the name Donnelly can be seen despite the logo labeled Rugged Ridge. There is a reference to this as a kit with the words, "This rear view mirror kit from Rugged Ridge. . . ". It looks like Omix is to blame There is a possibility that ADA might get the mirror from Donnelly then have some minimum wage employee stick it into a box so it looks like a Rugged Ridge kit even though it is As I'm working it out, I'm expressing my thoughts in this way. There is at least one advantage to it being made in the US. Anyway, I was going to replace my cracked windshield, so I figured this was the perfect opportunity to replace my - This mirror has been laminated. The new mirror on my 2007 Jeep JK proved to be the perfect replacement for the old one. Attaching this mirror to my new windshield was no problem for my windshield guy. While driving, the mirror adjusts nice and tight, making sure it doesn't flop around. The mirror doesn't really have any special characteristics, other than the fact that it's an inexpensive replacement for the OEM one. The only thing that bothered us was packing (other than the fact it was Donnelly mirrors). I opened the box from Amazon to find a smaller, plain box tightly sealed. I don't think there is a need to pack around this inner box to keep it from bouncing around. Amazon is great (thanks. The one thing you're consistent with is your attitude. I was glad that the smaller box was so tightly sealed because when I opened it, I found the mirror, the little metal button that sticks to the windshield, the adhesive, and a crumpled piece of butcher's paper lying around within. Mirrors that are unpackaged don't even have plastic films covering them to keep them protected. There might have been a purpose to the nasty fingerprints left all over Although there was no damage to the kit, whoever packed it up should have a little more pride in their product and show a little more respect for the customer by packing it like it matters. The little metal button would have been long gone if the package hadn't been tightly sealed. Why would it be so hard to insert that little button into a CLEAN mirror and tape it on with butcher's paper and at least wrap it with that? Despite all the challenges, the mirror came out well with no damage, it's made in America, and had a perfect fit. Honestly, I would have been happier if the packaging had been better and the mirror was clean. In spite of the fact that it is a five star mirror, I knocked one star off because of the disgusting fingerprints and because it is not.
As well as the mirror, the car came with the metal piece that attaches to the windshield glass, as well as the glue used to adhere the metal piece. But the metal piece and glue that was included were not needed, as the mirror attachment point was able to attach perfectly to the metal piece that was already stuck There was only one set screw holding the mirror in place, so I simply loosened the set screw As soon as I had the new mirror in place, I tightened the set screw to attach it to the existing metal piece on the windshield. All done, thanks. It took less than 30 seconds to complete this task. Seeing the mirror on the old OEM unit was difficult because it was all jacked up. I am very pleased with the new unit. It is highly reflective and is exceptionally well.
With a razor blade and denatured alcohol, it was really easy to remove the film on the windshield. When it comes to gluing, it's all about the prep. The mirror was installed after an hour of waiting. I followed the instructions and then installed it. I really like the way it looks. Happy to have been chosen. That is a mirror I would recommend without hesitation.
We installed it in our 2007 Jeep Wrangler without any problem. There were no differences between it and the original factory one. Even though it came with a button and adhesive for installation, we did not use it at all. I was able to fit it right on top of an existing button. I am very pleased with the purchase I made.
There is a fit for JKU here. In my 2010 Wrangler Unlimited Sahara, it fits nicely. If you are using OEM mounts, it is higher, but I prefer this way of mounting. The mirror was the only thing I needed. Simply follow the directions and adjust according to your preference on placement if you need the whole kit.
Although, for the majority of people, this is not a problem unless they have additional accessories around their As far as the mount itself is concerned, it is perfect. Thus, if yours is not broken, you would have to use no glue to put it together, which would take only one minute. My overall impression of the mirror is positive since I was tired of looking at peeling and flaky OEM mirrors.
