I'm not sure where you got $450 from, full MSRP for the aux switches is $295. Of course you shouldn't be paying full MSRP for your new Jeep. I paid 7% under invoice for my Jeep which made the aux switches pretty close to $250.
It's raining and I don't want to go outside right now. Why does the exact build date matter?
Also, for option availability the build date doesn't matter, the date the order was placed is what matters, mid January 2020 in my case.
The option combo I have has been available since day one with...
You shouldn't need any suspension mods on a Rubicon for any tires up to 35". Jeep advertises that Rubicon can fit up to 35" tire with no rubbing and a 35" spare will fit under the bed without issues.
So the only thing you would need to do with 34.4" tires is recalibrate your speedometer. This...
The base sport with max tow in my driveway says you are wrong.
There have been brief periods where you could not order certain option combinations and you may have looked into base sport max tow during one of those periods. But in general max tow has been available on base sport and sport s...
I got a base sport (no need for power doors/windows or upgraded electronics)with:
Max Tow w/ limited slip (wider axles and better gears plus I plan on towing a travel trailer)
Aux switches (allows for easy future upgrades)
Bed liner (about the same price as aftermarket)
Slush mats (these were...
I believe they are referring to license plates. On the bumper in the lower picture there are 2 small dimples and you screw the plate directly to the bumper. Which is why I bought an aftermarket bracket for mine since I hate poking holes in a perfectly good bumper (even if I'm probably going to...
They aren't abbreviations. They are chassis codes for different models of Jeep Vehicles.

I understand that. What I want to see is the details like how much extra slack I have in the wiring and how it actually mounts. I also want to see what happens to the 12v plug wiring.
I'm hoping to see the instructions before I order. I want to see how it wires in because I want to install it in a non factory location and want to figure out how much of a pain in the ass it will be.
Nobody told you that we don't have more choices today then in the past. The Jeep aftermarket options are pretty endless currently. But Jeep has always had one of the largest selection of aftermarket options of any vehicle.
People were trying to correct you on the bizarre comparison you made...
Well back in the 90s I had a YJ converted to a mini pickup, so there was definitely more you could do then lifts, tires/wheels, and bumpers. I also had an aftermarket center console and seats, grab handles, and side steps back in the 90s. And back then there were custom grills available, just...
My point was that a Jeep isn't a modern day Civic in any way shape or form. They are completely different vehicles and the Jeep aftermarket has been growing for longer then the Civic existed. The Jeep CJ/Wrangler was always the benchmark for modifiable/customizable vehicles. I'm glad the...
Absolutely. Jeep could have made the FOB smaller and should have. If they already had another vehicle with the same system but a reasonable sized FOB then they should have used that. But because Jeep went a different route and used larger electronics, we can't make it much smaller with a new...
You really can't make the key FOB much smaller unfortunately. Most of the space is taken up with electronics for the keyless ignition which the base sport still has. There is a kit you can get to make it slightly smaller by putting the electronics in a different case and making the key no...
I don't regret my base sport at all. I prefer using my phone for navigation since most of the built in systems feel dated after a while. You can add heated seats cheaply, I've done it myself on many vehicles. I plan to add heated seats and a brake controller and will put the switches in the...
Well I only had to learn 1 at a time. I started Jeeping during the YJ years when there were far fewer codes. And with a new Wranger coming out every 10ish years I had plenty of time to learn the new codes.
