Default I have the 2015 wrangler sport 2d automatic

the wrangler 2015 is fine ,the interior looks better than my 2010.I would like to know what the square hole in the dash was for as a cell phone has
to sit diagonally to use this slot.
I like the steering wheel controls,and the tray up top on th dash is good ,i put in a plastic insert and now my gps has a good stand
The trunk area is better as even if it did get wet the plastic tray is off the metal a bit
They also have more solid plastic at the back coming down from the roll bar looks better than the 2010 mat wall to wall.
I was not able to get tinted windows at the rear and i miss that so i am going to have to get these tinted,looks odd --so open
Took me 1/2 day to move the 2 hitches (front tow and rear pull a trailer hitch) but it went well removing from the 2010 to the 2015.
I think there might be some extra insuation in the doors as it seems quiet compared to the 2010.
But as jeeps go i have a roof leak dripping on the dash,so thats going to be a least 3 trips to get that addressed.
Driving wise is fine i only have 343 kms

The square hole is where the power windows switches would go if it had power window option added. At least on a 2011-2014.

The sales person was quite exceited to show me the top kit,its ok one ends up getting that screw driver if you had a jeep before.
I find the 2015 quite different from my 2010 (interior)

I'm happy with my 2014. Is the sound bar better sounding? it looks more solid. My sound bar does vibrate and rattle a lot. I have not poly filled it or dyna matted it yet.

I might be biased but the sound system in the 15 jeep rubicon is quite good (nothing to envy to my old x3 with premium sound). Also this is my first jeep and from a noise perspective It doesn't seem to be that bad.

Default my wrangler

my wrangler 2015 is 2dr sport nothing to lavish ,so when it comes to audio I don't think i have anything special.
It all looks the same as the 2010 and i think it has 6 speakers not 9.
But this is what i wanted again this is my atv/snowmobile/motocycle for year round use
And my off road use so far is all the roads with the yellow signs saying not maintained in winter,these are great,between farms
I will sort of miss the standard shift but that another story

Glad to be a part of this forum. I've got a 2015 4-door Rubicon on order. I'm currently deployed and I'll take delivery once I'm back stateside. My rep that's helped me along with my order informed me the other day that mine has been fully built now. She also let me know that since I ordered mine prior to the Alpine system becoming a manditory priced option, that it was installed on my vehicle free of charge. After seeing these pictures, I'm not completely pleased about the sub being in the rear in the floor. Being in the military and an outdoorsman, it's probably going to get damaged at some point. Oh well I guess. I'd also rather have the room for tools, recovery gear, etc. We can't win them all right?

Anyways, went with the Black/Black and got the hard top for now. Gets pretty cold in Alaska sometimes. Went with the 6-speed, 730N system and power options. No leather though. Plans are the usual. Lift, tires, lights, bumpers, winch, etc. After doing alot of research, I'll be investing alot into MetalCloak for multiple things including my lift.

I'll post pictures after I've taken delivery. Still got a few months...
