Default Mopar Gift Certificate

I recently bought a '11 2 Door, and it came with a $500 gift cert to Mopar. Everything I find offered from Mopar is real overpriced, but I have to use it. Any suggestions on what I should get with the Gift Cert?

Those mats are kinda cheap.... I got them with my mopar bucks. I got the mopar Cai.... I like it. I should have gotten there heated seat kit, it's about $150. Instead i got the mats and rear cargo mat. The slush mats don't cover the entire floor area...even though they are designed for the jeep by the jeep. There are after market mats that cover more and hold more slush. The cargo mat needs to be cut to fit it you have a factory sub... Also it's not rubber it's like a styrofoam.... Not worth it. Rugged ridge makes it.

Thanks for the suggestions...I was thinking the slush matt's, with possibly the body mount mirror brackets, and bumper light bar. The heated seats are a good idea but how difficult are they to install? Even with all of these i'm still only at ~$360, still $140 left to spend!

I got the Mopar winch bumper. Talked to the parts manager and he sold it to me for the $500 Mopar bucks instead of $625 retail. Love the bumper. It hides the winch down low where I like it and is very sturdy.

thanks everyone, i'm going to talk to the dealer to see if I can talk them down for that winch bumper. Just so i'm not confused though, the bumper listed on the mopar site for $600 doesn't include the winch right? I'd have to buy that separate?

I bought the slush mats and the bikini soft top for the 4-door( I don't recommend this top it's no bueno) I agree with you, I had a hard time spending the $500. The mats are well worth it, and if I could go back I would have purchased the locking gas cover~

That is right. I got the Smittybilt XRC-10 Comp with the synthetic rope. Fits pretty wheel on the bumper.

I got Auto-start (with installation) and side-steps with my $500 on my '10. In hindsight, I wouldn't have gotten the steps, and opted for the seat heaters. I hear that the heaters are pretty easy to install, I think there's a write-up on here somewhere...
