looks handy, does the mirror use the same ball?

No the mirror stem mounts in the hole above the ball. There is also a mounting ball at the end of the mirror stem, so you could mount a camera just outside the Jeep

Murphy's Law

My dash is on hold until I get more paint. The dealer has it on order and it should be here in about 4-5 days.

SO, make sure you have a few cans on hand before pulling your dash.

That sucks! Think it is going to look awesome, pretty sure I don't have it in me to do it though.

I wish I had more than 5oz per can. I'm thinking I might have been better off paying a shop to paint it, but I love doing these things. While I have the down time I'm pulling panels and securing the remaining rattles, while looking for mounting options for the C02 tank, recovery gear, etc.

I'll do something about the speaker rattles and add more Dynamat here and there as well. All good fun. Give it a shot, if all else fails buy the broken bits and start over. (Just Empty... well yeah you know.)

Darn it, all that care, and still I dislodged the lever to bring front seat forward! How can they make such a crappy, cheap plastic piece???
There is only one solution: take the darn back seat OUT!!!!!!!

Thank you but I didn't find Punk'n PE4. I've already put in an order for 3 more cans. I'll just keep driving the Subaru until I finish it right.

Most modern body shops have in-house paint mixing systems. You can have them custom mix your paint code. Also, many body shop / paint supply shops can custom mix your paint code and load into a spray can for you. the cost around Chicago is about $25 for 4-5 oz loaded into a pressurized spray can.
