I picked up a 2023 Willys last week, I got the opportunity to go off-roading last year with a few friends and just loved it, took my mind off of things. After debating to make my Santa Cruz work, I started looking at broncos/Tacoma's/4runners/jeeps, with today’s pricing I got a sweet deal on my Willys I couldn’t pass up.

So far, I added comfort features mods to it: Extra USB ports (ran power off the 12V), Dash cam (front and rear), floor lighting, Boom Mat sound deadening kit, Wireless charging (ran cable in dash for a clean look), roll up tonneau cover, bed fence/extender. Dealership did the spray in box liner and undercoat for me.

Mods am planning to do this year is to add the factory Aux switches and bed power outlets, I do need to look into winter tires. I do have a question, is the tazer mini worth it or should I be fine with 12 and 8 pin diagnostic connecter with a OBD2 (Vgate) for adding the switches and plug?

Glad to be part of the family and community, so far it’s been amazing.

Welcome! Great looking Gladiator you have there! I was torn between Gobi and Firecracker..went Gobi and every time I see a Firecracker Willys I get a little jealous...such a great contrast with the black and red. Enjoy it!!

Look at what the Tazer offers. If there aren't enough goodies to justify it, then don't buy it.

Hello nee Gladiator owner . Hope you don't get the modification sickness ? I had mine for 3 yrs. Then I came down with a bad case and spent 5000.00 and last week another 550.00 ? . I am a lost cause .. good luck on your new adventure.

I would reconsider the factory switches and get something like the VOSwitch. It's way easier to install, goes in the factory location and gives you more switches. Plus it costs less. Love mine.

Nice looking Willy's.
