I got caught in my first severe thunderstorm last night with the top down and front doors off. The good news was that I was able to pull over and put the top up VERY quickly. The bad news was that the rain was sideways and soaked me to the bone! Oh well, that's Jeep life. The safari top did its job, well, though. I didn't get much water, at all, in the rear cargo area.

Wife and I installed some lights on our @ROAM bumpers.
She installed a single row 20" @Rough Country Suspensions Black Series light bar(I've had great luck with their lights in the past.)

I installed two cheapo side shooter LEDs to make sure I would like how they fit and how the light spread would be mounted on the bumper(Before I spend $$ on a set of Rigid LED's that may or may not work.)
Light output on both is outstanding, if mine hold up I may keep them rather than spend over 5x as much on the Rigid LED's.

Like others on the forum, I installed the Ace Rock sliders and got the front windows tinted.

Everyone!!! Just changed my oil today after 1000 miles. I know some people say it’s not necessary for brake in but I’ve done it on ever vehicle I have ever had. I am so glad I did. My drain plug was finger tight. So Everyone Please check yours!!!

Upgraded my radio from the 5" UConnect 3 to the 7" UConnect 4.
The 5" radio is a piece of garbage and shouldn't have even been an option in a $40k+ vehicle.

Awesome! Where did you get the radio? Self install? Is it fully integrated - like with climate control? Did you also upgrade the center display?

I purchased the radio and trim piece and installed it myself. It's only half complete -- I need a different climate control assembly that is more integrated with this radio. It works fine as it is now, but I want the additional buttons for convenience. I did not upgrade the center display between the speedometers, but that's on the list of things to do. I have several parts on the way.

Thanks. I am very interested in this process. Wishing I would have gotten the tech package.

It's quite easy to do... almost all of it is plug and play. For the radio, trim piece, climate control, and climate module (for dual climate functionality), it was around $700 total. You can also upgrade to the 8.4" radio, but that is quite a bit more expensive.
