AMC owned the Jeep brand until 1986 and Chrysler purchased it in 87. AMC had a habit of using other manufacturers parts in order to keep R&D costs down and make the vehicles more affordable. I have seen the underhood worklight with both the Ford and ITT insignia on it. Much the same way that AMC used the GM 2.8 V6 engine in the 84-86 XJs.

My MJ has the blank plate where the drivers mirror should go but has no mounting holes for any other type of mirror. The PO just used drywall screws to attach a mirror in the middle of the door so far back that its useless.
Those look like universal bolt on truck mirrors. Take the door panel off and see how they are mounted . IF they have bolts with nuts on the back then they are not stock. IF there are nuts/brackets welded into the door that are covered in factory paint then they are a factory mirror.
