They are definitely $26 seat covers. They are okay.. only okay.
No option to get to the back or seat side pockets, either.
Probably would not recommend.

Had AC recharged. Everything is working now, nothing is leaking, everything is attached, so I'm calling the WJ cooling mod DONE.
Now when the KC lights get here I'll start the next mod....

Installed the Hella horns I bought a year ago finally. YouTube really helped until nothing happened when everything was done. had to do some googling and found out the the attaching point is not a ground for these horns unlike the supertones. Now all is well and they are loud.

Where are you hiding your wiring. How do you get the wiring to a switch inside ? Ypu did a nice clean install.
Member II
The wiring is not 100 complete but it will run on the innerside of the rack then into the H2 roof channel for the roof crossovers from there it will run down the left windshield molding to the light junction box. Instead of rocker switches, I'm using an 8 gang switch panel mounted in the vehicle, currently, I have the front bar connected to it and it is a great little unit.
Always trying to make my builds sleaker and better

I like the switch panel. Where did you mount it ? Will the wires be inside the rack rail tubing or just attached to the inside of the rail ?

Finally swapped the valve covers yesterday. It is a not-fun job on a 4.7L Jeep WJ. I guess I didn't take an after pic, other than these to show what the issue was:
That's a machinist's straight-edge with light behind to show the gaps.
Also installed my little hand-held Rugged radio and a phone mount using Panavise mounts. I know most people go with more serious comms, but for my group I think this will do well (along with an inReach device for emergencies). We're not running 20-30+ vehicles where you end up miles and miles apart (typically it's 2-4 vehicles) and we have the same type of radios (granted, higher-powered hard-mounted units) in our SxSs and other toys so I can keep in touch with them, or use the radio on "toy trips."

I mounted it on dash area left of my instrument cluster, I will get a picture of it once I get home from work. As for the wires I will be using Delphi weather connectors with the wires sealed in heat-shrink tubing, the wires will run on the inside of the rail.

Thanks, it's hard not to be able to meet up with other OB guy and eye ball these things first hand. I'm in build process and lack a lot of DIY knowledge for this sort of thing. I don't like the hit and miss process. I like to do it once and do it right when possible. I'm not the brightest star in the sky when it comes to
electronics on vehicles.
You said you use an H2 in the wiring. Is that the devise where you can drill a hole in the roof with water proof connectors, similar to a solar hook up ?
