Just power, we want to keep everything separate. We still listen to FM/XM and want a second navigation system as Google isn't always correct in Northeast.
I switch between using Google maps and Waze on Android Auto. Even though they're both "Google" their directions are based off of different algorithms.

If Google is giving incorrect directions or whatever about the road / destination is incorrect just report it under their help system. I've fixed many inaccuracies that way. I'm currently a level 8 local guide.

I'm thinking about this mod as well. Did you cut them in place? What tool did you use to make the cut?

Looks much better.

Did you just remove them or did you trim them so that the back of the fog lamps are still covered?

Just trimmed them with a utility knife following the lines in the plastic. It's all still covered on the back side.

LOD Signature Series bumper, Warn VR-10S winch, and Factor 55 ProLink. Couldn't install the LOD skid b/c they forgot to include the crash bar.

I've seen a number of different folks installing locking hood latches. Is stealing parts from the engine bay a common problem with Jeeps? What do thieves usually take?

These days anything is possible. I just did it for extra security and it was a relatively inexpensive mod. Now that this is my daily driver it gets more exposure to the public than before.

Installed chinese mopar replica third brake light relocation bracket

will have to take it off next week when my Chinese mopar replica spare reinforcement bracket and chinese mopar replica spare replicator bracket come in.

then again once I get my new wheels and 37’s. I’m a little worried that the black rhino armory wheels in getting won’t be compatible with the third brake light replicator bracket sue to not having any holes for the wire or won’t fit the extended lug nuts.

Added a handheld radio mount for anything I might need when in a group.

Here are the parts. Note that the actual radio mount bracket holes don't match the RAM ball mount holes so drilling two new holes is needed - and I am proud to say I actually checked the measurements before buying so I knew I would need to drill :).
I have an extra long GMRS antenna on this radio, was too lazy to swap for the stubby. Works fine though.
