I bought 2 pairs of these, one for my permanent mirrors, one for my "doors off" mirrors, for my JK. Visibility on the JK sucked trying to see both the road when driving and the curb when parking. They work great and are super cheap.
Now I can easily see if I'm parallel with the lines when...
Remove the springs from the headrests on the rear seats so they will stay down. This way you have better visibility out the rear when driving.
You have to manually put them up if you have rear passengers but in a Jeep, you may not have adults in the back too much, so better to have them down...
Hey now... my first (and still current) Wrangler is a 2018 JKU. I purposely waited on the purchase for over a year waiting for the JL to come out. When it finally did and I test drove both, I would totally agree the JL is more refined, drives smoother, etc.
But I went with the JKU over the JLU...
I say purchase the hard top from the factory then watch craigslist for soft tops (or vice-versa). People are selling tops of both styles all day long for less than MSRP, but I generally see more soft tops online than hard.
I'm in Northern Virginia just. We rival Los Angeles in traffic and are a huge tech industry. Very expensive area to live in but also not too far from farm land. So most jeeps in this area will never see dirt.
When I'm driving around the city I get a pretty good return on the wave. Even on 2...
I always dry my vehicle (and dishes) with "The Absorber". Love it. Picks up all moisture and when it's damp, you can wipe over any late drops or streaks and it will take them off and immediately evaporate.
I wanted a 2 door convertible. But I have a 3 year old so I need a car seat and room to travel with 'stuff'.
Solution: The ultimate 4 door family convertible... Jeep Wrangler (JKU in my case)
I went with the JTops for a few reasons:
I have 4 door and wanted full coverage (doing separate front and back leaves gaps around each so less protection from sun, etc)
The JTops uses clips rather than bungees. Just like your stock jeep grab handles use. So not as much wear on your rollbar...
Also remember that if you’re driving a JL, according to proper jeep wave edicate, newer jeeps are supposed to wave first. So if you’re in a JL you may not be getting waves because technically you’re supposed to wave first. If you’re waving and not getting any waves back, that’s a problem. If...
My dealer emailed me the program info next day. I also got a packet in the mail a few weeks later with the coupons. Also got mailed the recovery kit (tow strap, gloves, bag, etc)
I have the Wrenches & Bones keychain. It's not that bright anodized metallic red at all. It's a muted matte/powder coated burgundy.

I got a JTops USA shade for my JKU. Some things I liked about this over other shades:
Uses clips to secure instead of ball bungies (more secure, less prone to breaking or loosening over time)
Sits across the top of the cage down the entire side (no gaps)
Has a metal cross beam in the back to...
