I think someone asked for photos of the side camera set up so here are some shots, of the camera on bottom of mirror, and of the monitor in the door - photo taken from drivers seat.

Anyway, put 1200 Klm's on it last three weeks. Stopped looking for folding power mirrors as its really not a problem so far. As someone mentioned, sticks out just a bit, maybe an inch, from the fenders. I've been getting 24.2 mpg highway - that's 3 round trips up to mountain area I usually go, 150 Klm's each way, gain of 3000 ft going, and downhill back - average of all that, at about average of 100 km per hour.

So far no problem with it. Really enjoying driving it.

All export version of JK,have these bumpers.

Nice car Casper,but bumpers are very ugly. The rear bumper has foolishly placed the number plate. It is partially below the bumper in the middle

Those mirrors will fold in manually. I found that out by accident when some one clipped one. Good thing they give. Also, you can modify the tag location without any problems, you just have to get your "Hanko" thing reloated. (750 yen) See my mod in https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...eign-JKs/page7

The bumpers can also be modified too. I think the biggest thing you can't do is have your tires extend out past the fenders.
