Default Assembly to Delivery?

I got an e-mail from my salesman that said that my Unlimited X with half doors was scheduled to be built next week! What does this mean to me, when can I realistically expect to drive it off the lot? Anybody know the approximate time from assembly to delivery? I asked him for the VIN, but he didn't have it handy, is he blowing smoke up my a$$?

I also didn't order the side air bags, but some threads say they are required for the half doors. What's the deal?

side airbags are automatically optioned in when you order half doors. try calling your salesman/dealership back, if they can't supply you with a VIN, then they don't know when your JK is scheduled to be built; that goes hand in hand with D/D1 status. and depending on your distance from Toledo, build start to delivery is 2.5-4 weeks in most cases. there have been some cases where the finished JK sat in storage for weeks before finally being shipped, but those seem to be anomalies. good luck!

There was no mention of the side air bags when I ordered, other than I declined them and we moved on to the next option. Could the requirements vary state to state?

I'm with you Immortality, If I get them, fine, as long as I don't get charged extra.
