I put on the Brawlee Led light bar for the rear window so I can have a light while overlanding/camping! I decided to wire it into the cigarette lighter so I can have it running with the jeep off and then added a switch into the small cutout. I can't tell if that spot was made for a switch since it fits perfectly!

It's possible to run the wires thru the inner and outer shell of the hardtop, then open the existing wire track and run the wires with the others. There is enough room for more wires. I know, I did it. Came out super clean!

This, I like! Although I already have mounted in the rear cargo, I think I might look into this. Nice job. Looks great. Looks as if it cuts down on foot room though, no?
How do you route the air hose from the passenger side to the driver side? Can you take a photo. Thanks

I like to carry bolt cutters, but had no place to keep them, now I do. Yep that's a Missing sensor plug in the bumper.@JcrOffroad

No, its under the seat , cuts down on nothing. I will try for better pics to show you.

Installed door sill protectors today. I'm a big fan of the look, but also like the functionality.

Honestly, sorry to sound dumb, but what is the functionality of the door sill protectors?

Really out of ignorance, I can’t figure it out.

Don't worry! They probably aren't for everyone anyway.

For me, not only do I like the more finished look with them in place, but they also help if you have shorter people/kids in your family. Not only is it more textured so they are less likely to slip, but it keeps wear and tear off the metal. I also have dogs, so when they are climbing in, it's another spot that isn't getting their claws on it. Water also likes to pool up there and leave a bunch of water marks. There are quite a few reasons. I'm 6'4", so I step right over the sill into the jeep, but not everyone does that.

We put the sill plates on two JKs because of scratches caused by getting in and out. Thing is the scratches would occur on the metal lip, exactly where these new protectors don't cover. I'm probably going to skip these on the JL and find another solution.

Thanks I should look if the dog is tearing mine up. Lack of rain here and rock rails probably had me confused as most step on the rails.
