Your tint looks really good. Did you get window tint to match the rear windows or slightly less for the front? If you can, report back on the visibilty with driving at night.

Considering you live in Roseville - I'd avoid anything over 70% for the fronts. Unless you want easy PC for police to light you up.

Did 20% in the front to match the backs. It’s the legal limit in CO so I wasn’t going to go any darker than that.

Hardwired my dash cam to the aux harness battery cable and changed out the fm/am antenna to something with a low profile

The setup of your dash cam looks so clean! I love it. How did you fish through the wire? Is there a fuse box in the cabin where I can source the power from? I know you have the AUX option, could you please share some detail pictures? Thank you so much!

How are the grab handles?
Love them. Easy install once you get the right length torx tool under there. Super easy of you take the top off/down. Only took about 15 minutes to do even maneuvering in the narrow space between the roof and the angled screw head.

My AntennaX is the 13” model. I live in the foothills of CO and driving around today didn’t notice any signal loss on FM. Sounded crystal clear.
Thanks for that info. After reading reviews on Amazon I opted to stick with the factory antennae, even though I love the look of yours.

Took my doors off and went hiking with the dogs today. First time ever taking doors off a vehicle and couldn’t have been easier. 10-15 minutes for both front doors and I was being mega careful. With experience I think 4-5 minutes per door.

Roseville police don't care about window tint, a ton of cars here have it and don't get bothered, it is when you drive in the bay area that you are sure to get stopped. That is my experience and am around police and sheriffs often. Hopefully now that I said that I don't get stopped and prove myself wrong.

I'll be upfront... I didn't do any of this myself the boyfriend put it all on for me.

Grab handles, slush floor mats, fuel door and the tub insert not pictured.

Check your state laws about mirrors, most states require at least 1 if not both side view mirrors when your doors are off.
