Where would you mount the foot pegs? You have any pictures of them mounted to the Jeep?

Unhappy

Sad day for me. Went out today with some buddies of mine, it rained all day and fill the tub to the door sill. Haha. Had to put the top, doors and windows back on because it's still raining. And apparently it's supposed to do it all day tomorrow. Thank god for floor plugs, huh? Hopefully my seats will be dry by tomorrow when I go to pick up the girl.

So sad though. I hate having it all on, and it's all been off for about five weeks, and all the females love riding topless

I refuse to put the top on, raining in Geogia, Jeep in the garage with the top off. I guess I will have to just sit at the house until it stops raining.

All states could be different but in all states I have lived in you need two (2) ways to look back. One (1) is the rearview mirror the other (2) is to turn your head. So... in most states it is legal to just have your rearview mirror if the line of sight is not blocked i.e. if you have a large box in the back seat. Same way with a motorcycle, one mirror does the trick.

after a week of sun, low humidity and 90s last week I had to put it all back together over the weekend so that now we can have a week of typical ohio weather... rain, clouds, drear, and low 60s..... I really dislike cold and rain....

as for mirrors I dont like relo brackets because when the doors are on the mirrors esp the passenger side are tough to see.. I use lange quick mirrors for when I have the soft doors on or no doors on at all....

they easily remove for when the metal doors are on...

unfortunately in ohio here the metal doors may be on till spring... unless we get lucky and have warm weather return
