JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I fixed all the pics...
The pic of the fuse panel is a bit blurry...it is different from the original one. My current panel (the one in the pic) holds six fuses and is watertight. Let me know if you want more pix or additional info on anything I did.

The only other thing that has changed is that I wired the aux reverse lights into the factory reverse lights so they come on when the vehicle is in reverse, or by the switch...

Thanks for fixing the pix

Can you explain where the dimable wire tap will be. And what type of LED are you using to be dimable.

I read the posts above describing a wire but just where is it?

You can tap into the orange wire with the gray stripe...it feeds power to the lights on the HVAC controls and the power window switches. Just remove the panel where the HVAC controls are and you will find all the wires behind there...its very simple..

For a ground wire you can either ground to the chasis or tap into the black wire on the Cig Lighter. Once you tap into the orange/gray wire the lights will be dimmable just like you dim the rest of your dash lights. The lights I used were just single LEDs. They are from Advance Auto Parts and come 4 to a package. They come in several different colors and can be found in the section of the store with the ricer accesories.

PM me if you need more info.
