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.

There's a good reason that I'm installing these seats. My son was injurred a high school wrestling match a little over a year ago and is a quadraplegic. We used to Jeep together before his injury (he has a 2002 TJ). This is the first ride that he's wanted to go on. The Jeep seats would not support him enough to do this. With the Corbeau and 4 point belts, I feel he will be kept upright in his seat.

He's training at the Quad Olympic Rugby Training facility in Birmingham. For those that know, this is the game "Murderball". We are lucky to have this facility in our city.

Wow. That IS a good reason! What a tough thing to deal with.
I have 3 kids myself and my hat is off to you for finding a way to keep doing what you and your son love after a terrible accident like that.
Looks like a great kid!

I put the passenger seat in this morning. The air bag light is on. There are 4 sensors on the passenger seat. I'm thinking of taking them off and mounting to the new bracket. I'm going to message Corbeau and see if they have a solution.

Looks really good and that harness bar will come in handy as an OH S!@T handle for the rear passengers. Good luck, I hope you both enjoy the time together.

Now we need a picture of your son strapped in hanging on while your climbing a rock face! Glad to hear that he is involved in activities!

We need to get together over the summer!
