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.

What was done to your JK this week?

hurt my back this week so can't do much, let alone drive, so I decided to do the side blinker mod. So easy I couldn't believe it. Had the wife take me to radio shack for some connectors and had it all done in about 20 mins, and I've never done anything with wiring before. I wasn't sure what to get for connectors, and couldn't find a good answer here so here's what I bought, followed the instructions in the free or low cost mods thread, and electrical taped up for extra weather protection. Worked like a charm. Here's some pics of what I bought (only $2) and how it looked before the grill went back on.

Just a little trail rash that gave me a slow leak. 1700 miles and the tire is garbage.
