They don't make the greatest step, but the little lady uses them as one. As far as install went after paint was dry it took me and the Misses about an hour forty five to mount!

Usually people mount them outside.
I'm probably going to try different spots like the bumper, sliders, etc. It has a fully waterproof case, so I'll probably just check it occasionally to see if it's dirty. I think the WOL videos are all shot with gopro.

2) if I don't offroad in mud, but I'm on the street and run in a couple of inches or even 1 foot of water, can I damage the air intake or the engine?

Thanks

This looks really good. Where did you get the rails to get the cross bars on?

Intakes or aftermarket air filters are definitely worth the upgrade. It is a simple concept - more smooth, colder air in and more, better exhaust out. Better than stock setup.

Your choice and research is best for deciding. I like Airaid.

You will have no issues with an intake, as long as you don't swamp the front end. Run a pre-filter and keep it clean. I only clean my air filter once every 2 to 3 years.
