I just wanted to thank YellowToy for the post on putting the garage door opener in the plastic windsheild corner piece. I did mine this weekend while also putting in my UConnect Mic.
Thought I would post a couple pics showing my opener in case anone has a similar one.
Rectangular Craftsman opener. I wasn't sure it would fit until I tried
Using the ties may not look too pretty, but it holds it tight. Not worried about it moving. Just have to cut one tie to remove when I have to replace the battery (hopefully not anytime soon
)
Unless you are looking for it you might not notice it. Had to tell the wife where it was so she can open the garage in my JK.
Cheers,

JMP8562 - If you are not seeing my pics you can see them in my album area under my profile. They should be viewable by everyone.
It's a Jeep - take it apart and see if it fits.
if not then just put it back together and try something else
That's part of owning a Jeep (for me anyway)

Plastics Screws
I actually thought the one in the windsheild A Pillar was a Phillips so I just used a screw driver. After getting it part way out I saw it was plastic 
For the one above the door I was able to see it as I had the Freedom Top panel off. As soon as I saw the white plastic I could see that it was one that has the fins that "just" fit in the hole. Don't know if I would want to keep removing them as they will likley wear out and break.
Hope this helps. :-)
