David, thanks for posting about this radio and the coupon code. I bought the same Midland and got 20% off, so thanks! I am installing mine now and was wondering where exactly you got power? I can't recognize where the pic is on the Jeep. Obviously, I'm stupid and would appreciate any help.

Feel free to PM me with the details or post here.

That pic is behind glove box. Your aux switch wire bundle (if you have them) will be behind carpet near passenger's feet. I took that 6 wire bundle (aux 1,2,3,4,continuous, ignition) and put ring terminals on those wires and put them on a terminal board. I use the continuous power circuit for Radios. In terms of ground I used a decent gauge wire and connected a negative bus bar to the body ground bolt behind trim near passenger's feet. If you don't have aux switches you can run wires through firewall to battery. You could also run wires behind center dash and connect to cigarette lighter. Quadratec makes a nice little adaptor that splices into cigarette lighter circuit with quick connect adapters. This circuit would be ignition not continuous. I posted a picture of it early on. I had no clue the aux wire bundle had those other 2 circuits back then.

Looking at soft tops now. Can’t decide, I’m in Michigan so it would be used a few
Months a year. Would I be happy with a basic bestop soft top? Is the Mopar worth the extra coin?

How many days/weeks did it take after you ordered it to arrive?

Ordered it on the 24th and it arrived yesterday, the 30th. Pretty quick delivery. I ordered from ExtremeTerrain. Would have ordered directly from Bestop but it was actually cheaper from ET.

Thanks so much for your reply. I just ran it to the fuse box under the hood.

Installed the Midland 275 in the old Jeep. I used Velcro because i hate drilling holes in the trim and it gives me the option to move it later with no penalty. I ran the wires out the drain plug and then to the fuse box and ground under the hood. Mounted the antenna on the only non-aluminum place i could find. I’m obviously a hack, but at least I soldered and shrink wrapped all the connections. Lol

Got the Topsy Hooks installed.

I hadn’t seen these before, they look awesome, I had to go and order a set, I am not happy with straps across the weather strip/seal of the back window when is on my Haven Hoist.

Waiting for them to arrive!

Wish I would have seen these before I bought my hinge mirrors and separate foot pegs! Nice.

One mistake I made, I unscrewed one bolt all the way off. No need. Just unscrew enough to slide the hook in.

I don’t have pics but today I spilled about 4 oz of dip spit (way more than it sounds) on my lap and seat while in a hurry trying to get to a meeting.

Normally I wouldn’t be too concerned about this (just very annoyed) but the weirdest thing happened. There must have been something in the spitter cup in addition to dip spit because towards the bottom of the stain there was a very wet blue ink spot. I started dabbing it up with a towel and sure as shit, it was like I had spilled half a pen’s worth of ink on my seat. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I didn’t have a blue pen anywhere near me, there was no blue stain on my ass, and I couldn’t remember putting anything into that cup besides spit.

I’ll take a picture of it tomorrow in the sunlight but all that’s left of it is my red stitching is stained blue near my left ass cheek. Oh well, first blemish on the Jeep is now under my belt... expected it to happen off-road but what can you do.
