Notices
JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What was done to your JK this week?

Loaded them all in the Jeep when they were scared to drive on a dirt road and carried them from 9,200 ft to 10,200 feet. We then ate German food and drank very large German beers at the Bavarian in one of the most scenic places in New Mexico.

I was impressed that the Jeep was able to handle all the weight. Six of us were between 225 and 300 lbs each- the other two were light weights. Still, the Jeep never even spun a tire and the road is quite steep in places with plenty of loose gravel.
Where did you get the mirrors from and how did you install them?

Exactly what I did (even same velcro discs). However, a little forewarning, if you live in a cold area and run the heater, hanging your iPhone on the vent will cause it to overheat and do an auto shutdown... Even if you run the floor vents, hot air will build up and eventually do the same.

Been there, done that. Otherwise it's an awesome setup and I still have mine. Cool thing is that if you want to hide the velcro disc on the vent, just rotate it fully and use the other side for that stock look!

Does bedlining the antenna cause reception issues?
