Never realized each trim level has a different style grab handle over glove box....from what I can tell, the Sport and the Rubicon have "Wrangler" or "1941" on there's while my Sahara's is plain jane.....any one order a different version and switch out?

First one is Sahara's, second is Rubicon's...I can't find the SPort version, but I recall when I test drove one, it looked better...

My “sport” model has the basic grab handle with no wording on it. I’m wondering if these are from an early run through the factory.

My JLU Sahara was built on 4/19 and it has the plain one. I had noticed the same thing and was a bit disappointed. I liked the exposed bolt heads that match the ones in the center stack.

Yeah I agree with you completely. My JLU Sport was built 12/17. However mine came with the “Customer Preferred Package 24S” and the “Technology Group” that is not available on current Sport models. Basically I have a cross between a Sahara and a Sport S.

By upgrading to the Sport S trim level you are able to add the technology group package. You do not have some hybrid Sport / Sahara model. You have a Sport S trim level with the technology group package. You can build a Jeep that way right now on their site.

I think the Sahara has 'Wrangler' and bolts if it has a cloth interior and a plain handle with the leather upgrade. Pictures from the builder on Jeep website:

Could someone please confirm with their Sahara?

I had a JLU Sahara with cloth but did not have bolts in grab handle - it was plain.
