It's very straightforward. They're held in place by pressure created by plastic clips. I just gently popped them out with a plastic trim tool. Just go easy on them, as I could imagine they can snap.

Truthfully, I'm not sure how to upload videos here...but this picture may prove the point. They're much brighter than the factory LED turn signals. Again, I'm very impressed...and honestly I had very low expectations.

Love the look! Have you noticed any hood flutter after removing the "functional" vents?

That seems like buying the lift system and adding a ton of money to it...
It’s all DIY... plus I’ve never heard of anyone on this forum buying something just to add a ton of money to it - we drive Jeeps!

488's installed. Power with the 35" tires is great . Nothing but 8th gear on Interstate with small elevation changes. Great low end grunt now.

Looks great. What rack did u go with? Does it hold two bikes. I really like your set up
Thanks! i got this cheap rack from amazon: XCAR 2-Bike Bicycle Hitch Mount... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MCXJ21K?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I used it for the first time this morning, drove about 60 miles total, I did not hear any noise at all. Installation is super easy. The rack is on the heavier side but it’s mainly due to the thicker metal they use, which after owning a few thin metal ones, I really like. It’s super sturdy. It holds 2 bikes and come with an anti vibration mechanism. I really like it (if you couldnt already tell).

After a good amount of finger yoga, got my Warn Crawler Full Width bumper installed. Mildly disappointed that my Warn Medium Grill guard wasn't compatible but still like the looks. Weighs a ton and feels oh so solid.

Blacked out the key holes with plastidip. First time using it. I was impatient with the coats. I will redo it at somepoint.

Installed some goodies today. Teraflex Falcon Nexus 2.2 steering stabilizer, a much needed upgrade to stop the steering wander. S-V.4 headlights, and what would have been the S-V.4 fog lights, but dummy me ordered the JL version instead of clicking the extra link to get the right JT ones. I'll get that sorted out Monday and get the right ones ordered.

Also have a Tazer mini on order, to add the extra programming touches like turning on the hood alarm option and who knows what else I might turn on/off. Finally some factory LED taillights arriving next week, that I'll have to turn the option on through the Tazer too. Extra Launch Edition rim also coming next week, to add the spare into the tire rotation. Last task, trimming the Euro bumper fillers to cover the back of the new fog lights and reinstall them as I've been running without since day 2.

Edit: using the Tazer to turn off the blinding licence plate lights when in reverse, as I see that's an option. =)

Installed the Borla S-Type Climber yesterday. It sounds as good as a V-6 can sound and no drone, so I’m happy with it. Paired with the S&B ram air system, my Gladiator now makes proper truck noises. Threw on a Pedal Commander today. Pretty happy with that too.

Decided while they were still on sale, with free shipping, and no tax, I'd order my JKS 1.5" lift HD rear coils for my JTR frankenlift build. So that will be all EVO Mfg up front (2.5" springs, adj. track bar, Enforcer LCA's), and JKS 1.5" HD coils for the rear.

Should be one nasty machine when I get it all installed! :rock: :rock: :rock:

Had Black Rhino wheels & 33s, front leveling kit, rear airbags & compressor and tonneau cover installed today. Last week I installed new headlights with halos & had front window tint/bed-liner done. Now it's time to enjoy it!
