I was actually thinking the same thing. Would have to be smaller though.

Progress Update: Overall, I think it looks clean! I went ahead and removed the trail rated badge and drilled the hole 2” with a standard bimetal hole saw. Just eyeballed on keeping it centered and the indexing hole for the trail rated badge worked well for keeping it aligned horizontally. It...

An update for everyone I attempted to remove my antenna to see how deep the area behind that hole is. Found this video that shows a guy sticking his whole finger straight in so I figured I’d take a look at my antenna side. I couldn’t get the antenna mount cover to pop off so I decided to see if...

I was just planning on putting a 2x4 behind the panel to have something to drill into with a 2” hole saw. Are these punches that much better? Any corrosion issues on the plug here? I’m sure the rubber cover is decent but I’m not sure I have that much faith in it. I will say that looks pretty...

Looks like 813 has it all designed out already! https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/noco-ac-port-plug-insert-for-4xe-cowl-panel.67003/

Seems like a few others have converted the cowl into an onboard air outlet https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/wrangler-4xe-charge-port-cowl-repurposed-for-arb-on-board-air-connection.47862/ https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/4xe-cowl-air-retrofit.57633/...

Part of the reason I was thinking of taking out the badge was because the black coating on mine has started peeling. Couldn’t think of what would make a cool replacement badge so I figured I’d make it an outlet. The 4xe cowl is a good idea! Although I have a feeling I’d have a tough time...

No worries! From what I can tell comparing to the exterior panel, the hole should be directly behind (or close to) where the badge sits so that should buy me a little space. I suspect the hole is there in case FCA decides to swap the antenna to the driver’s side, then they would just need to...

Yah, I understand that. I’d have to drill a 2” hole through the exterior fender panel in the indention that is for the badge. What I meant with there already being a hole is in the next panel behind there (see the picture below). I’m just not sure if there’s enough space behind the exterior...

Hey y’all, I recently purchased my 2021 Gladiator and am in the process of making it my own. I’m looking at adding an external ‘shore power inlet’ plug on the outside of my Jeep for easier access (and more aesthetic than a plug hanging out through the grill) to the factory block heater and a...
