Installed M.O.R.E. Dead Pedal drove over 3k miles in the last 3 weeks and this was a necessary mod that I wish I had done before the long trip!
Also installed a set of GraBars, and Finally I installed the soft top and that was a CHALLENGE I must say! It was SUPER tight since its a brand new jeep and top and it definitely needs to stretch but its on and I can't wait to be able to enjoy this summer with the top down and the doors off! Anyway on to a few pics!

For the headlights, you'll want to grab the adjuster screws from the dealer and your output will be better. I've got the TL and after adding the adjuster screws, it's ridiculously better.

The soft top will stretch, give it a good solid month of opening up with the heat and it'll get easier.

I have to buy screws to adjust the headlights?!WTF?! LOL ok thats just weird but just another "Jeep Thing" I guess! They do need to be adjusted thats for sure! Also I am a little disappointed in the way the foglights line up with the Maximus-3 Bracket not alot of adjustability and I am a bit of a perfectionist so no one will probably ever notice but I will for sure!

So with stock headlights we're only allowed up and down adjustment but adding the screws for horizontal adjustment helps out quite a bit, particularly with the high power LED lights.

GOTCHA! Ok makes a little more sense I guess. I will swing by Jeep at some point this week and pick up the screws. Thanks for the input. I would still Like to get up with you and some other jeepers and check out some builds!

I'm running SOL testing for another week but then I'll be free. Also looking at doing a run to URE (hopefully) within the month.
