They are for when the doors are off. Same ones that are on the Mojito Jeep at the launch

When I look at the video of the Mojito Jeep it looks like those mirrors are attached to the tube doors and not the body of the Jeep?

Question to dealers: Could I still go back on purchasing after placing an order, paying the deposit, and after the Jeep has been delivered to the dealership?

I have mine on order set to be delivered in May and already put a $2k deposit on it. I didn't get any discounts on it, paying MSRP AAAND it looks like they offered a shitty 11.2% APR financing which seems pretty ridiculous considering my Credit Score is in the 800s.

My point is, do I still have any leverage left to haggle with them AFTER the Jeep arrives or will I lose my deposit if I back out then? I feel if I can still get 100% of my deposit back, I can still haggle over the interest rate and maybe get them to throw in some accessories like all-weather mats or something.

Thanks. Is there a set time limit when you can escalate it, and if so is it 21 or 30 days?

30 days, i'd say

I got my dealer down another 1.5% by bringing in a offer from Dillon Jeep. Would've walked and lost my $500 deposit to save on the jeep if my dealer hadn't come down any more. Shop around on interest rates....your bank/credit union is going to be waaaay cheaper than 11.2%. I'm at 1.9% with my credit union with similar credit score as you.

Correct, but it looks like they should be able to attach to the top door hinge, at least that is what I am assuming.

You can save a lot more than $2,000 if you walk.

They can't lock you in on financing until there is actually something to finance. Why don't you just go to a local credit union?

Pick one of the group buy dealers close to you and get a quote from them. Then get credit union financing and go in and just tell them you want the jeep you ordered but you need a reasonable deal or you will walk.

And don't wait until the jeep comes in! Do it now.

So I will lose the $2k deposit if I walk?

Does your paperwork say refundable or non-refundable deposit?

It depends on whether it was non refundable. If you didn't specify then that is up to your dealer. You need to talk to your dealer.

Is it too late to try to add LED headlights if I am still not showing up as D1 status on the tracking list? Jeep Chat had me at D1 but I don't believe them.

Lol, that will never happen. Originally wanted halogen lamps but after staring at JL's for weeks, the LED's have grown on me. I wouldn't be hurt either way.
