Hey thanks for the video. If I ever have to rip my dash apart I might do that. Only then though because I am fine with the dash lights as they are. Did install the onewaylight passenger compartment LED's. Very happy with that and Jason there is very easy to work with. Do have one question that maybe you can answer. I put factory fogs in my '00 that did not come with them. Looks factory up front and in the passenger compartment. In the engine compartment not so. I just wired them up. When I pulled the factory fog light bezel from a boneyard Jeep my intentions were to replace my rear wiper switch, rear defogger switch, cigarette lighter, and power plug with mine. I knew mine worked. Thing was for the life me I could not figure out how to get the cigarette lighter and power plug out with out destroying them. The internet was no help. Do you know how to do it? By the way I have a Camel interior too. Don't see many of them.
what did you do to your xj/zj/wj today?

Pretty sure the green one is the power plug and that rubber band is for the plug to cap it. Like I said I could not figure it out. Played with one, got it out, but kinda destroyed it in the process. Not real bad and still might work but you would think it would not be that big a deal. It is not like I need to know. But I would like too. I guess if you need to replace it cause it is bad then you don't care how it comes out as long as it come out.looks like the right side has a rubbery band around it that may release it if removed. The left side doesn't have anything but seems very fixed in the bezel....hmmm![]()
YEAH BABY!!!! Got the Cruise Control in. Air bag did not go off, air bag light is not on, and the horn works. Went for a spin around the neighborhood. All the features appear to work. Will know better when I get her on the highway. I literally live 1 minute from the cop shop. Got her up to speed to check the cruise but did not want to push my luck.

So I figured I would start on my front seats. Just the passenger today. Does not require quite the rehabing that the driver's does. So separated the seat. Cleaned up the back and put on the Coverking Rhinohide seat cover. Gotta tell ya. Not disappointed. Think it will even fit a bit better after some time. Cleaned the bottom good and POR 15'ed the bracket. Now just waiting for it to dry so I can put this all back together and call it a day.

Done. Not a bad fit at all. I am OK with it.

Off next week so today is the first day of "Project Jeep Week". Of course it is going to be the lousiest week possible as far as rain goes. Got the driver's door panel and vapor barrier off. Managed to get the new door check in. Wire trick from the guy who did the write up I read was a good idea. He said he used pliers to get the pin in. I found using my next to smallest pry bar, sticking the pin in as far as it would go, lining everything up, and hitting the pry bar with a hammer got it in on the first shot. Door opens and closes nice now. Started scoping out how I am going to deal with the Dynamat. Cleaned up everything and started to make my first cut and it started sprinkling. On a rain delay at the moment. Going to be a rough week.

So after the rain delay yesterday I was able to go forward. Between yesterday and today got the Dynamat on with some closed cell foam and the Infinity Tweeters in. Just the front doors though.

I want to live where you live. No tax. Thinking my first purchase would be an impact. Thinking one of those kits, like from Sears, would be a waste. Same with the Home Depot or Lowes ones. No idea of what kind of ft pounds I should be on the look out for and what would work good with the compressor. Thinking it is not a bad compressor but it still is only capable of so much. Also would like an air hammer/chisel, I believe they are the same thing, but the compressor says it will only handle intermittent use. Same with a die grinder. But that is OK. More interested in makes and models that you guys own that you like.Oh ya, tax! We dont have that
As for tools, I'd base that on what you do. As an example, I do alot of metal cutting so a cut-off tool and a dye grinder were first on my list.
