Two questions..
How does the Baja boss compare?
What are the emblems below your trail badges?
Night and day difference on the trails. On road, Patagonia’s are still quieter on pavement, but the Baja boss’ hold their own.
The badges are trail badges from Conquered Trailz. They have badges not in the Jeep BoH system.

I replaced the dash and knee speakers in my Sport S today. I have the 7” display non-Alpine system. The dash speakers I went with are Infinity 3.5” ones from Crutchfield. As for the knee speakers, I was really worried about the whole process of pulling the dash apart and getting the knee speaker pods out, but it really wasn’t that bad. I used the Metra pods and installed Infinity 6.5” speakers. I covered the inside with Dynamat and filled with poly fill. Pic is a comparison of the factory pod and Metra pod / Infinity speakers I used.
All in, a $275 upgrade and TOTALLY worth it!

On my list of things to do when the weather gets warmer. Is there a big difference in sound ?

I used two Rugged Ridge clamps with a piece of 1.5x 17.5" flat bar between them.

What is the cover you have on the winch? The whole setup looks nice!

Nice, which Teraflex lift is that?
Nothing fancy - just the Teraflex Performance 1.5” spacer leveling lift. Met my “needs” and selling point of maintaining stock ride (which on initial drive seems true) was important to me.

Installed a DIY top hoist/hanger in my garage. Total cost = $33. It is simply 4 screw eyes (something like 3/8" x 5") and a couple of ratchet straps from Home Depot (3333lb, 27' x 2"). $15 for the screw eyes and the straps are $8.88 apiece.

But, you know the best part? When I take the Jeep to the camp, all I had to do was put some heavy-duty lag bolts in the floor joists, and I can remove the top there (yes, I have to get on a ladder to raise it - but I have to anyway to attach the straps, because we don't want stuff hanging all the time there).

You actually don't need to pull the whole dash. I'll be honest, the drivers side was easier than I thought. The passenger side was easy, but there was one screw for the top pod that was hard to get out, unless you use a 90 degree adapter for your drill. All in, 2 hours.

I cut a piece of plastic from the front plastic skid plate to side in and cover the line from all the elements. Very easy to slide out when I need the winch

Decided to pull the grill and Plastidip it to change up the color. Love the black grill against the orange. Had to loosen the whole bumper to get the grill to clear the winch.
Then added Rancho diff skids...after making them the appropriate color of course.
