And now that power windows and locks are standard, a base Sport is not that much of a sacrifice.

When I had my last jeep the top was off as much as possible. Typically it was safari style with the top on, sides and back out with no doors.

According to Dirt Road Cred, there was possibly a supply chain issue since an aluminum factory burned in NY. It also mentioned they may be trying to use up excess EU hoods. Other than that, I got nothing. 😄

We regularly send parts off to be zinc plated or hot dip galvanized at work. It depends on its intended use. If its intricate or has threads it gets plated. Since we make mostly railroad parts, the vast majority are hot dipped since it last way longer in the field. Gold zinc is pretty though. :)

Followed 👍🏻

The plan is to trade the Ridgeline for a Gladiator in a few months. I’ll do another write up when that happens.

Now, as far as operation. 95% of the time I just use the rear camera since it is the rear view mirror. Glare was a bit of a problem since the RL mirror does not tilt up very much. I took some plastic toilet shims and added some felt type pads to protect the factory mirror and it does tilt the...

The front camera took a bit more work. I tried a few different routs to get the cable through the firewall and eventually decided to run it through the same grommet as the hood latch. Thank you to the guys at Naviks for that pointer. That's where they run their front camera cable on the...

I did this writeup over on the Ridgeline forum, but since Wolfbox gave me the mirror in the new feature contest thread on this forum, I'm posting it here as well. Thanks again to Wolfbox for the great system. The full install took about a month and a half since I had to 3d print mounting...

That is one of the best looking JT's out there. Thanks for the old school wheeling pics as well.

I believe the front cable is a loot as long as the rear cable. I had to loop up quite a bit on mine since it was so long.

That is a good point. On my truck the rear view is not obstructed, but it is nice to have the bumper camera when needed. My truck has dimming side mirrors and the Woflbox mirror covers the sensor in the factory mirror. I don’t dive a whole lot at night, so it hasn’t been an issue yet. When I...

Correct. The rear camera feeds to the screen which either straps over your existing rear view mirror, or replaces it entirely with a bracket.

I went out and tried it real quick. It does work but when you pan up and down it resets the zoom. Not sure if it resets when you reboot though.

I ran across something on the Wolfbox site today. You can zoom in and out on the rear camera only by swiping the far right side of the screen

I have the film, but have not put it on yet. Was hoping to get the screen at the right angle and not have to use it.

My only real gripe is the glare. How do you guys deal with it?

Great writeup. I have the G900 Tri Pro as well. Just got the bumper cam installed over the weekend. I had a problem with the wi-fi turning on and blocking most of the mirror. Did some research and it seems it was the same problem as you, voice commands. Turned that off and no problems since...

I for one love the forums for all of the advice and help with troubleshooting, esp in the Jeep world. I'm also on the Legacy GT forum and the 5th gen (2010-2014) is super slow now.

It’s funny, my last car was pretty rare, they only made 1,900 over 3 years (304 for my year). Yet I hardly ever had anyone notice it. With the Ridgeline I have received more compliments than any other vehicle I’ve owned combined. You would think I would love it.
