Does anyone have any pictures of the trunk space in a JL 2 door? I cant seem to find any in person or even pictures online. Would love to see with and without the rear seats folded. Thanks!

You’re not going to find any in person, they don’t exist yet, maybe mid-May they’ll start showing up on lots.

Very similar to the cargo room in a 2 door JK. Not very much at all.

It’s just about big enough to fit the key fob.

The key is to not get the alpine stereo option that puts a sub woofer in floor. I am pretty sure in addition to being the the middle of where I unload stuff into back, it also fills up the secret under flap cubby.

I will have back seat out most of the time, as thats the dog hang out zone..

That's a lame reason for passing on the Alpine in regard to a 2 dr.

Yes, you lose the little cubby storage area.

You can stack crapola on top of the floor Alpine which is shielded/protected. Sure it will impair the Alpine output while it is covered over but that is only temporary.

YES, back seat out and the back of the JL will hold lots. 4 very large totes and more.

What's lame is spending $1300 on a speaker. But to each their own.
Where are you coming up with $1300 on "a speaker".

Yes, the whole Electronic Infotainment Center is $1295.

Oh, you bought a 2 dr Sport. I got it.... Yes, to each his own.

You can’t really fit a lot in that cubby anyways; if you like/care about great sound get the infotainment, if you don’t, then don’t.
But basing that decision on the cubby space seems a bit extreme IMO

gotta read! cubby is an additional thing you lose, the issue is putting the speaker in the middle of the cargo area.

I don't want a speaker in the middle of my cargo area, its stupid period. I use the back of my vehicle alot, it will be smashed, full of sand and boxer debris.

Ah I never thought I would see a day where wranglers had 4 doors and guys want a fancy stereo from the factory! lol.

I really dont want carpet in the back either, I really wanna hose out my entire jeep like my brother does his CJ. I will load bricks, dogs, gear, it will get full of sand, dirt, weird stuff the monster dogs pulverize back there.. A speaker is the last thing I wanna see in the middle of the back.


I could live without the cubby, sure, but it looks a like a great spot to put tow straps, some tools and ka-bar thats locks with back gate.

Nice post and good review. I like the way the back seat flips all the way back - plenty of room back there. The split seats were nice if you needed to load up the back but needed room for a third passenger.
