Did you break a wire too, or just didn’t like the thing?
Did not like the thing. Could never get the appropriate light color once I plugged in the module. That said i was having a huge issue plugging in one of the two wires and could feel it getting weaker with each attempt. So I can completely see how it finally broke on you. I got so frustrated I just left the entire mess and tossed the module in the console and there it has sat for a couple of months. I don't feel like taking out the glove box and panels to get all the wire back.

Finally got around to making a ladder for my toddler to climb into my Jeep. He loves it!

Installed the EVO JL hinged carrier after I started getting some creaks and rattles from the stock one.

I don't know if I got one that has a manufacturing defect, but I'll be damned if I couldn't get it to not warp the right side of my gate out, leaving a huge gap. I adjusted the hinges, bolts, and moved the gate around and half-dozen times, and just could not get anything to align properly. I ended up adding quarter-inch thick washers between the gate and the spacers it comes with and it made everything align nicely. It opens and closes smoothly, too.

You're way over the character-limit for a Jersey plate.

Managed to find time for the @ROCK HARD 4X4 muffler skid. Solid & hefty... I used a floor jack to hold it in place.
I don't mind the stenciled logo here... Small, and not gaudy or blingy.

Nice! Always hated that big silver boat anchor hanging off the back end. Ended up getting rid of that muffler all together (now has the first Borla Climber exhaust in the Touring version for the 2.0T :like: )

Finally tagged my dip stick...

And yes it’s double sided. So they’ve been informed twice.

They can’t mess that up right?

Idea from another member in here. Can’t remember who. Amazon blue light special.

Yours looks good to me. Did you deal with the same issue? Adding the washers aligned the gate and body lines perfectly, so I don't know if their included spacers are too short or the holes for the hinges that attach to the tub were drilled a little too far forward.

I like it but I bet they still put 6 in and say “oh man! I wish I would have seen this on the fill cap instead!”

Funny!

thanks... no issues, I’m not sure what’s up with yours, like you said, could’ve been oblong hole. I did use all the shims on the bottom hinge to the body as instructed. At first I thought it was going to be to much but it came out good. I didn’t have any trouble with it front to back. If you could show me with picture?

I emailed evo about the threaded holes to the right of the tire.

They said “ at this time they have no purpose” lol. I did the leg work ( in and out of ace hardware a dozen times) and figured out the size. It’s 8x1.25. What threw me was the bolt only went in about 3 or 4 turns and stopped. Finally determined that it’s either some kind of pinch but , or lock nut, or to much powder coat. When I used a wrench it went in all the way......:facepalm:.
