INSTALLED!

Only problem was getting the new connector to fit into the existing connector.

Rather than using tape, we trimmed 1/2 inch off the ridges on the new connector and trimmed (slightly) the width of the locking tab in the center of the new connector.

Will add pictures later tonight or first thing in the morning!

 

explain...?

 

The term "Plug & Play" should probably be "Rig a little here and there & Play"? I look forward to seeing photos of the modifications to help with my install when I receive them

 

weres the night shot pictures... come on guys

 

It seems like most of the guys that have had to modify here and there have a 2010 JK. Anyone installed a 07-09 yet?

 

I was wondering that myself. I'm sure the details will start flowing as people receive them and do their installs.

 

i know people arent explainin much

 

There isn't a lot to explain :P If you go over to my install thread https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show....php?p=1527881 and scroll to the 6th & 7th pictures you'll see where the new harness attaches to the old harness.

The part that is not designed properly is the black part of the new harness slides in to the old one, but the little hook on it that should make a 'positive connection' is too big. It does not engage with the clasp on the original harness. Without the two pieces fully snapping together the harness can slide completely apart with little to no effort.

I used electrical tape to secure the parts together. Paul nibbled away at the plastic on the new connector until it actually fit correctly.

 

guys i am gone all weekend and will check this out as soon as I get back and we will figure out what the deal is and FIX it

 

Thanks David. This was my first purchase from you and I couldn't be more confident based on the feedback from the boards! I am assuming it is an issue with the 2010 connections, as that is the only people to report anything so far.
