  1. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    Here's the door harness that I took out of my wife's jl last weekend. The wires would go in the gap I circled, as you can see, hers were not there, but thankfully the pins were present on the dash/body side.
  2. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    Actually easier then pulling the door card come to think of it. Just look at the door side of the body harness, do you have the wires coming out of it that correspond with pins 15\16 on the body side? If they're in the door, that's where they'd start.
  3. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    I highly doubt it, but if you want to take a look. Did you already check for the pins on the body side harness?

    That's exactly what it is. If you take a kitchen magnet and put it up against the door handle it works.
  6. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    There's also a bad run of caps going around. I installed the kit on the wife's JT this weekend. The swing gate worked fine, but neither door worked. I swiped the passenger side cap (prox came factory) from my JT to test it, soon as I installed that cap in either handle, that handle worked...
  7. No Mojave in Australia. Start with Overland or Rubicon?

    Yep, that's it right there. Casey Currie starts all his JTs as Overlands, gets the niceties he wants, and knows all the Rubi stuff is coming off, so why buy it. Not knocking Rubis, they are extremely capable, just have to keep in mind your end goals and what you plan to upgrade vs. keep on the...
  8. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    They have confirmed on the JL thread you can install just one. In the radio settings you'd have to be set to "unlock all doors" on 1st press of the key fob.
  9. Doors off, Harley mirrors on?

    I use the Harley Sportster mirrors as well. Yes they're a little low, but they are ever so slightly convex and work great. I just need them to check beside the truck for lane changes, which they do perfectly. They're really inexpensive on Amazon. Probably helps that I ride a "crotch rocket" I'm...
  10. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    Thanks for the feedback. Mine just arrived this afternoon but my garage is about 90 degrees right now. It can wait for next weekend.
  11. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed a Weathertech tailgate liner/protector. I've seen reviews that the holes don't line up etc... They must have revised it, everything lined up perfect.
  12. Lease vs Buy

    That's a terrible lease quote. Ugh. 27,500+36,500 is 64k for a 50k msrp. The lease number must be astronomical on that. I realize there is interest, tax, dealer fees etc, but 14k worth is way too much.
  13. Proximity door locks retrofit on Wrangler/Gladiator, someone figured it out (DIY writeup)

    Ordered a set for the Wife's JL on May 19th, just got the email with shipping notification, yay! I'm guessing they order them in cycles. I just happened to be mid to late in the cycle.
  14. Please tell me there's other soft top options

    Yes, this is EXACTLY what I want. As someone said, the rear doors become an issue, but I think moving the pivot back a little further is doable. People keep saying have the top drop into the bed. No, just have it flop on the bed rails like it does on wranglers. It wouldn't compromise the bed...
  15. FCA free touch up paint

    My wife's new JL came with 3 as well.
  16. FCA free touch up paint

    It was still 4 in 2 years when I bought mine. With Covid I only put on 3500 miles in the first year, so at 12 months I finally used my first one. I'll be lucky to use 3 of the 4, and that third one might even be tight. Wish I could trade number 4 for the paint.
  17. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Swapped the mushy overland shocks and springs for Rubi take offs.
  18. Lots are mostly empty of new vehicles!

    My local dealer has two wranglers and a gladiator on their website right now, and they're starting to list them OVER MSRP. Crazy. And this is usually a high volume dealer.
  19. My stable looks Awesome!!!!

    I can identify. Wife brought home a JL Sport Altitude about 2 weeks ago.
  20. Well, I had a new Jeep!

    My poor 10 year old. He's been saying for a year now he wants the JT when the time comes. Fast forward to last week, wife brought home a Hydro Blue JLU. Now he's conflicted on which he intends to commandeer.
