    Nice! Cheaper than what I paid, but there's more snow on the way, today was my day off, and the tax refund is here; I couldn't stand how crappy the inside was looking, after discovering Ziebart coupons last week in the local Thrifty Nickel!

    I'm guessing this is gonna be the "What did you do to your Ultimate Jeep today - 2014" thread, soooooo... I washed, waxed & detailed mine today!

    Since I Ziebarted it in February, that made it a LOT easier. Basically wash and wax, Armor All the trim & tires, and polish the headlamp & foglamp covers. Would like to have cleaned out the sunroof area, but I have a barfy kid this weekend, and he & mom had to run off to the doctor late this afternoon.

    Couldn't make it to Bantamfest this weekend, either.

    Yesterday I removed my bull bar (got tired of it) and put the lights behind the grill. They're not very bright so I'm looking for LEDs to replace those with.

    Then my friend and I put an LED light bar on the roof rack, ran the wires, and installed the switches.

    Is that one of those XJ switch panels with 12v outlets? Where did you get it?

    Looks good!

    Thanks! It wasn't a panel but just switches I found that I really liked. That location is where I've always wanted to put them and I got lucky that they fit so I'm not sure where I would have put them had they not.

    Thumbs up

    Just saw this mod done on another Jeep forum (I only frequent it to taunt the lesser Jeep owners ), an tried it on mine today (in-between showers). Pulled the cover off the air intake, so it could finally BREATHE!


    Took it for a brief spin on the local highway - couldn't go over 45, so I can't comment yet on how awesome it is, but it seems like a good mod, if you're not driving through deep water!!!

    You don't need to drive in deep water. A really good down poor will be enough to suck water into the filter. By eliminating the extra turns the water has to take, you gave it an easier path to the filter. I was in a heavy enough rain storm a few years back (stock setup) that caused mine to do this. The Jeep actually hesitated because it sucked enough rain in. Think about your shop vac, now imagine you had a 4.7L shop vac LOL I use to find mud drops on my filters (stock setup) from splashing threw small puddles.
