It is for the Doors also! Great cheap little tool kit to remove the door hinge bolts. Very convenient to keep in the glove box or in the rear floor storage area.

LOL, I figured most would just see "Hard Top" and not the next word "Door"
To preface, I haven't used mine yet.
But, is there a practical reason for buying a different torx set aside from the one that the Jeep already comes with?

Hi all, I am expecting my first Jeep next week. I have purchased a Jeep Sahara. I was reading in Google that there are several must do customization require in Jeep, like seat cover, steel bumper, entry guards, hood latches. I am not sure what are the must do and which are just advertisement. Can you please guide
Nothing is a "Must Do" except putting gas in it and going out and having fun.

It's a "pedal" that doesn't function, usually located to the far left of the driver's footwell. Most vehicles have some sort of "pad" or block or something over there. It's where you would rest your left foot while your right foot is manipulating the pedals. Less common on manual transmission, since you have the clutch pedal.
Funny, my Mini and my Audi both had dead pedals to the far left of the clutch.
The Jeep, well there's just no room to the left of the third pedal lol

It’s all advertisement. But we all succumb to it.?. Like was mentioned previously…once you pop, you cant stop!

Ohhhhhh that's what it is. So no need to get those little blue pills.

Just to clarify, I'm pretty sure most (all?) of the posters suggesting an Angry Grill as a must-do mod were being sarcastic. Some folks like `em but most folks around here have an abiding and deep-seated hatred for them, so it's a bit of a running joke. They don't have any functional benefit, so even if you wanted one for some reason, they're certainly not a "must-do" mod.
