7” display, tried upgrade from My Jeep, no joy. It accepts the vin to find & id the truck, but fails when it goes to confirm it. That is different from trying to load vin directly into the Jeep app. There it kept coming back with “invalid VIN” when either the last eight (with caps) or the...

I haven’t checked, but I’ve been buying tires from Tirerack for our cars and previous truck that when everything is considered have been pretty competitive. We don‘t have Discount Tire around us so I can’t comment on how the two compare.

Have you had any issues with Waze? I have the 7” display with CarPlay & current iOS and waze will freeze up from time to time requiring me to remove it from the phone and reinstall it. I haven’t had this happen with either of our cars.

I was pretty sure that’s what he meant, but couldn’t resist. On a semi serious note, mine is firecracker red, there ain’t no radar detector in the world that can compensate for that. I’m pretty much screwed standing still. Without hijacking the thread, what has been your experience with the...

For our 48” Raymarine open array we use a Scanstrut that also has mounting points for spotlight and GPS modules.

I’m getting a similar result when entering the VIN. I’ve tried to enter the VIN maybe six times and each case it tells me the VIN is invalid.

We have LED headlights on both our cars (Audi SQ5 & Panamera 4s) and the 22 Glad. The Glad’s LEDs are equal in terms of light pattern and dispersion. i tried LED bulbs in halogen shells on a previous car and the results were kind of so so. The thing is that both LED and halogen lights tend to...

I’ve used the Ctek battery maintainers on my Porsches over the years. Most of them have been toys so they were all low mileage with a lot of sitting between outings. Cteks have a wide variety of attachments from 12v lighter plug to fused permanent battery terminal attachments.

I have a background in commercial freight vehicle design and fleet management and with that significant experience in cargo securing. I’ve also spent a lot of time investigating cargo loss claims caused by poor securement, So here is my take on this mod. If your intent is to hold a cover over...

I’m not surprised by their refusal to supply seat material with Jeep branding, it probably would violate their agreements with Mopar not to directly compete. I realize the process is largely a function of the local deal, but how did the process work out for you?

Well we’re safe in New England, I just bought a brand new 4wd. If history repeats itself we are good for at least two snow free winters. H

Can somebody clarify this for me? Is the OEM leather seating supplied by Katzkins? Does that mean a Glad can be retrofited from cloth to OEM leather outside of the Jeep dealer network by a Katzkins franchise? Hank

Given the number of times I’ve gotten out of the car or truck and left my keys, or phone in plain sight is proof to me that this would be a bad thing for me. That said I have taken enough simulation training at Sig to learn that having an easy to draw concealed handgun when you are standing can...

PM sent with VIN

I want one of those!

It is possible going down a steep incline off road triggered your ABS system. My Glad is still new and I haven’t activated the ABS yet, but on other cars where I have, increased peddle travel is part of the process and pumping the brakes can exacerbate the issue. An incline shifts the force on...

Hi, I have a 22 Sport S with 7” display, no navigation, no Uconnect. I‘d like to add an 8.4 display with navigation & don’t care about u Connect. What part #s do need? I note there are several 8.4 displays without any description to show what the differences are. Is the gps part of the...

I still have the 17“ Bridgestones that came with the truck. Over the years I’ve had the best results with Michelin LTX on my trucks. That said I bought a small pickup, for small pickup things like taking yard trimmings to the dump, hauling boat stuff, and the dog really needed her own...

If you can do that, you can install an inverter. E120 and DSM300, that’s vintage stuff. We have a Magnum Research 3.5 kw on our boat, and something like that would probably fit under the rear seat, but you would have to add two 4D batteries to power anything. I think either Mastervolt or...

I don’t know the draw of the hotspot, or duration the Hotspot would need to operate. My thought was to create a power source that would avoid the risk of draining your starting battery by not directly tapping into the battery, so I added another battery in between the two.
