What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[WES IV]

Should have came with a Teflon fishtape when you get the right angle it’s really easy to fish the bungees in

Hmm, I can get the bungee's in but I'm having trouble getting the clips into place.

Mock up, test fit of my AuxBeam LED rock lights.

Great bang for the buck. This is with only 4 of the 8 lights installed

Can you please show pictures of the lights mounted? I didn’t see any good place for mine in the fender wells.

Hi, Is that 35” no lift? I like the look a lot!

No, I have 37" with 2" lift.

I got a plain red one of these for my black jeep. The clips are a little weird, but works awesome and should last for years and years

Added a sunshield

Installed my Synergy 1 5/8 spacers yesterday, makes for a much better drive (needed after installing the 35s on my Sahara to address the rubbing at full turn) and the looks/stance is pretty awesome too !

I'm probably too late, but check out this video, at about the 1:51 mark. I followed these steps to install my smoked side markers today!

I went the cheap and easy way out for mine, one can of lens tint for $3.00. Haven't gotten it inspected yet so not sure if it's legal, but we'll see next month I guess haha

Absolutely, I have already removed everything, but again last night's effort was the mock up.

I will used automotive grade 3M double sided tape and screws. I will not used the rubber mounts either where they will make them visible from beside the Jeep (front/rear wheel wells).

More to follow

Hmm, I can get the bungee's in but I'm having trouble getting the clips into place.

I ditched the clips and put the bungees around the 4 screws that hold the windshield. Meaning, so that the screws held the bungees, by unscrewing the screws, push the bungees in, screw the screws back in, so that the screws are going through the loop of the bungees.

Which wheels are those? I really like them!

If you still have trouble, I can tell you that dropping the windshield is really not as much trouble as I expected. I dropped mine to make it easier to mount my 67 Designs JL Rail system on dash.

Don't believe people who tell you you need a special wiper arm removal tool... mine came off super easy with a little wiggling while pulling. Pull wiper arm caps off, pull wiper arms, undo 4 bolts with the provided Jeep wratchet, and fold down the windshield. Whole thing was <10 minutes and made the install SO much easier. Convinced now that I've done it once, I could get my time down to <5 minutes.

I like it. How difficult was install? What color is that, gloss or matte black?

I used the matte black. I did it while the wheels were on my jeep. I also didn't have the best lighting and I'm pretty blind and impatient. It took a few hours, but I managed to get them on there. There were some air bubbles which I managed to shrink with a heat gun, and there are some spots that overlap, but once you take a few steps back, it looks ok. Not sure how long it'll last, but if they don't hold up I plan on having them professionally painted.
