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?

Default lighting and visibility upgrades

this weekend I upgraded my reverse light bulbs to LED, much brighter/whiter light, looks more like headlights
also installed a backup camera, it's the Peak rearview mirror w/ wireless camera. had to fabricate bracket to put on spare tire mount but it works pretty good.

this week I'm waiting on new LED headlights and a hoist for my hardtop.

Of course. So simple. Sometimes it's difficult to see the forest through the trees. Thanks.

I did the "roasted red pepper mod". That's when your wife's jar of roasted red peppers leaks undetected for 2 hours onto your back seat. I don't know how it happened. She's not even Italian. Good news is that it's only water and salt according to the jar's label.

After the initial cleanup we took a 3 hour drive around Manhattan with the windows and top open to air it out. Why Manhattan? Because that's where we spent the weekend. Why 3 hours? Because that's how long it takes to go anywhere in Manhattan. It worked. It no longer smells like my grandmother's kitchen.
