For sale is the premium OEM black soft top. I got both the hard top and soft top with my car, and it turns out that I prefer the hard top year round.
It's in good condition, though it's been used. Stored in my basement, so it was only exposed to weather while it was installed.
I live in West...
I've managed to install a Kenwood TM-D710GA in my Jeep and figured pictures of the install might help others.
My goals were:
As little permanent modification as possible, ideally no drilling holes in places where if removed, it would still be visible
Since I live in Seattle and it's crawling...
You nailed all three of the things I was hoping to use it for. If it could do any ONE of them, I'd have been pretty happy. It can do none of them, and on top of that, as you mentioned it takes a lot of effort to get a good path recorded and stored solely on your head unit, since each time you...
No, the same tire is available studless and studded. It's the same mold I guess, just in one version they stick studs in. I don't want to be part of the problem of Washington's roads turning into powdered rock, so I bought studless. If it was up to me studded tires would be illegal or have a...
I've heard lots of great things about the BFG KO2 in snow. I can tell you that on Seattle's 35-40 degree, wet, and shiny non-snowy streets, the KO2s are not all that good. They're not dangerous, but provide noticeably less traction than the garbage Hankook all-seasons that came on my Sedona. I...
Why'd I do it? I wanted to try it. I bought an extra set of wheels and got 5 studless Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT2s in the stock 285/70R17 size.
So far they're good - noticeably grippier than the KO2s on Seattle's wet 40 degree polished-to-a-shine-by-studs streets. I'm heading to Montana next week...
Very good description of how LEDs aren't a linear resistive load.
Our cars probably use a much more complicated constant current switching power supply for the LED headlights though. The variable alternator and ESS systems mean that the voltage fluctuates between 12V and 14V pretty frequently...
Yup, absolutely correct. I get crap mileage most of the time due to city driving and short trips. When I head out on the highway with a pretty full tank, my estimated range increases for 20-30 miles straight.
I haven't figured out how much history the computer uses for the estimation, but it's...
I know you got the bumper back on, but I wanted to put in my 2 cents since this happened to me.
I also ended up enlarging the frame bracket holes a bit so that I could fit the bumper back on.
I realized after the fact that it's almost definitely the rear frame bracket being pushed out of whack...
On Android there's a solution: you can mark WiFi networks as "metered" and then they're treated like mobile connections in terms of background bandwidth usage.
Settings -> network -> data usage -> network restrictions. Choose your car's WiFi network and set it to metered.
On iOS I have no idea.
The automatic's shifter is the user interface to control hill descent control - you choose the speed with the 'manual' mode. The 6 speed manual has a mechanical linkage to the transmission, and so there's no way it could be used to set a speed. I'm guessing this is why.
