Those are killer pics man! I love everything you've do so far, it looks great! I was thinking about the console safe, seems like it would just be plug and play, sounds like from what you were describing it was NOT...maybe I'll have one of my kiddos help with that one.
Once I figured out the instructions are wrong and I decided to build it outside of the center console to see how I needed to build it in the console it was easier. However, FAR from an easy task with only two hands. You need three for sure and tiny ones, and small tools.

Got my fix last week - can't really tell the difference. Dealer did it while I waited. Took about 40 minutes.

@JimmyZ any loose fuses? I’ve heard a lot about that being one of the first things people are checking and finding a lot of them loose and not seated properly.

Jeep may have prioitized the recalls. Mine took 5 business days from train to dealer. My dealer thought it would take longer. I took tomorrow off to go pick up.
Mine it’s taking almost 3 weeks to get down to Florida. Happy for you though! What an exciting day tomorrow is going to be! It’s fun watching you guys get your Jeeps.

About 20 of them were loose and/or not seated correctly 🙄. Thankful for the knowledge of the members here.

I realized today my tire pressure was at 43 when it should be 37ish. Hoping that since I corrected that I'll see some improvement in the gas tank. I've been getting a measley 15 even on the highway, and I baby it.

I wonder if its insulting to check the fuses on the dealers lot. I feel like that should happen. No doubt there is a wealth of knowledge around here, I am very grateful for that. Tire pressure is another example of what I have to learn. I assumed it was on the inside of the door but since I have no doors......😩.....it hadn't crossed my mind. It's going on my list of things to check now though. Currently I have a 2018 Toyota Tundra and I get 11.5mpg so 15 sounds like a dream. haha!

My wife called Jeep today, ETA April 5-19. So 4-6 weeks after build was complete and recall showed done. Unbelievable.

Jeep Wrangler JL STOP ORDER on all Manual Jeeps [Update: software flash fix arrives in March] IMG_20210319_102307_HDR

Got Banana today. I was really happy to find they had corrected not being able to turn off the automatic seat and wheel heat in the manuals. Still figuring out the computer. If anyone has tips on adjusting heat or the radio while using Android auto I'm open. I drove half way home with static on the radio and the heat on 86.

Picked her up on Friday, finally got some pics today. The front end is a bit high because I had them add 3/4 inch spacers along with the lift to offset the weight of the winch. Winch was supposed to be on today, but was missing spacers in the winch plate kit (glad I found that out AFTER I had the bumper off and the winch was installed and was about to put bumper back on 😡). But here she is for now.

Finally got my 21 manual Saturday! I've used 6th more in the past 2 days than I did in the 2 years with my 2018....not sure what changed. Same roads etc.

I wrote Jeep about my 2018's power back when I first got it, I don't have the same issue with my 2021. Both near identical builds too....
