Finally filled up the wheel wells 
I may be looking to take it in for alignment and/or double checking the balancing of the wheels. I was able to correct my toe in/out myself and get it in spec. After some adjustments I've still got a shimmy at 40-55 mph. But it's down to a shimmy, from the full on twerk-fest it was when I first mounted them all up.

It was pretty tedious.
Soldering iron and some patience. If I wouldn't have screwed up and needed to repair my board, would've taken me two hours. Instead it took me two hours spread across two nights.
I'd be willing to do the footwell and map lights for a fee.
The mirror light module itself comes out pretty simple.

Not technically "this" week. More like the last two weeks.
Installed LOD Signature Mid Width bumper and skid plate
The two skid plate holes for the cross member did not line up on my 2014 JKUR. The 4 skid plate holes on the front of the bumper lined up perfectly with the skid plate. Just need to now drill two holes in the cross member. Zip ties are in right now. Wondering if anyone else had this problem.
Installed Truck-Lite LED headlights. The passenger side was more yellow than the driver side (see pic), so Truck-lite sent me a replacement. Great customer service. Now all is good.
Installed Putco LED bulbs in the fog locations
Went to the Rangers/Astros game in Houston this past Monday night, came back out to the Jeep and my 50in light bar was gone. Apparently Loc-tite and filed nut edges wasn't enough. Insurance is good. now I need a new way to keep it secure.

Got all the way up to removing the bell housing bolts to install my Centerforce clutch, and the hobby shop closed. Guess I'll finish it tomorrow. Other than that, the reverse light on my Metalcloak taillights went out, so I'm working with them trying to get a new one.
