This is my WK Build Thread, 'The Core'.
Although I am on multiple forums, this forum and thread serves as the 'home-base' for my build thread. This means all of my mods and updates are typically covered in greater detail here than other locations that I may frequent.
Many thanks to these guys: Lifted_Up, cricket, xOakley, Sal-XK, and Omelet. As a 3.7L WK, I drew most of my confidence from the momentum generated by WSPJeep - your WK will be remembered, dude.

Remaining mods to complete Build
Bought my 06 WK in 2009. I have VERY few surviving pics of this thing stock i mean bare bones stock. After a couple hours of owning it. I had the same Jeep dealership install a sunroof in it (for free).. (they were nice people)... Majority of the things I did for the first year were all interior
After this picture I took the Jeep to get an after-market sunroof installed.
When I returned I got the Yakima bike racks and cross bars, and wind deflector installed up top
Then a couple weeks later I had the Nav system installed. Which allows me to integrate my IPOD with the Nav system, it has some basic voice command system, and bluetooth capability. It's also got Sirius radio membership (which I still think is a waste of my 12 bucks every month). And i installed a back up camera on it as well which is also hooked up with the NAV.
(I'll get placement of IPOD later)
Slapped on the wind deflectors on the driver and passenger side windows, and tossed in some slush mats, and threw the carpet ones in the cargo area... Just some easy cosmetic stuff. I also put in after-market headlights that I am still thinking of putting back in the OEM.
Then me and a good friend of mine decided it would be cool to slap on some nerfbars, which it did look good, and some splash guards. I have some pics. But I have removed them both now.
