Hot food on the trail is always good!

Ok, but it's going to be a while before I get this done. I have a looooong list of higher priorities at the moment. The only reason I'll get this done faster is it won't take as much work/time/money.

Awesome. Just put my bid in. I agree the stock bulbs make it hard to see! Thanks!

I used two two seatbelt fuzzy (fake wool looking things) from pep boys. Put them on the bottom of the belts where they flap instead of where they were meant to go. Zero flapping !! 10 bucks.

That's HIGH on my list. My 10 JKU -- no flapping. My 13 JK - annoying as bleep!

Cool Stock wheel painting
I've seen stock wheels painted all black, but before I jump on some really nice wheels I painted mine to look like it has a rim, and silver center
