    If you bend the clips, it is no different than the original. Just thank KTJO 4x4 :puke: for the design failure as you do it.


    The speaker upgrade is very nice.

    They have some really cool ideas but I try to listen to others experiences and try to learn from them. I don’t always do it but with 276 pages (and counting) of folks pulling their hair out there is no doubt they have issues.

    Seriously good on you! I completely understand the difficulty of wanting the unique mods.


    The best that I can say is to make your wish list known. Other vendors might pick up the slack, except for maybe the grab handles.

    Do you know the wires would you need to tap in to to archive this? I have been looking at some small chipset leds on Amazon that I think might work. It may be a bit of pain on my end but the peace of mind might be worth it.

    @caribe makaira sent me the pins for the rear seat window switches. Finding the parking light positive with a meter is pretty easy. PWM ground is maybe a little trickier.

    Yeah this pwm is a bit confusing for me. I guess I will probably have to order from her if I want them.

    It's just the beige wire for the PWM ground. Green for (+). No trick there.

    So bare with me. It has been years since I messed with automotive electrics. All I need to do is connect the led to the green and beige wires?

    Look what we have here

    No free pen. All hardware included.

    Install was ~15min. Had to use exacto knife to cut some of the white, inside top portion of the handle bar due to having enough clearance for the washer and bolt to pass while tightening. Otherwise it would knock the grab bar off alignment. Product was brand new wrapped in packaging :anonymous:
