These look nice but how do you flip the hood back all the way when crawling in there wrenching?
There is a small release lever on them. They disconnect very easy at the bottom. Then the hood will go all the way back. Best of both worlds.

The single best upgrade you can do for under $100 is buy a pair of Kenwood KFC-X3C for your dash. It takes under 30 mins to install and gets you huge benefits in the sound stage. You can substitute the Kenwood with Kickers, etc, etc, of your liking - lots of other good choices - but avoid the higher end speakers as most of them expect 50W or more of power that the factory system doesn't have. So you have wonderfully awesome speakers but just not enough power to show it.
Are these a simple “plug and play” option? I’m asking because I have the 7” screen “stock” radio right now and I’m super disappointed in it. But I have exactly zero experience with aftermarket sound. Would it be something easy for a noob like me to install?

Yes, very easy, and lots of people here you walk you through it if need be. One of the joys of owning a Jeep is to learn to become self sufficient on some of these items as lots of community support....

Awesome - will likely pick these up as a Christmas gift to myself and see how it goes. Only $69.99 seems like a no brainer.

Check the Inifiti 3032 version as I think they went on deep Cyber week sale and might be the better deal. They work fine as well.

Hey John, Do you know if these plug and play no capacitors needed? Amazon has these at $57.

Let there be light!

Baja Designs LP6 lights. My first attempt at wiring and installing auxillary lights. Wired the low and high beam functions to the OEM aux switches. Going into it, I felt like Clark Griswold at Christmas troubleshooting my way through this project! Coming out of it, it was much easier than I anticipated.

Tomorrow, it's time to figure out how to wire their backlit daytime running lights function.

Anybody have thoughts on tapping into a fuse in the fuse box vs tapping into the actual DRL wire?
