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?

Does the light shine through or are they too dark?

Built a antenna mount from a piece of a curtain rod mount and added a 2' antenna from rat shack. Works great so far...

Have you checked your local laws? I think in Texas they not only have to emit amber light but also reflect amber as well.

no I didnt check, I see people running this setup all the time so I didnt see it as a problem. I'll ask my cop friend tommorow. If I do get stopped for it I am sure I could probably get some paint thinner and take it off.
