I cleaned up all the wiring really tight once I got it working.


Learned a lot on this one.
 
Who made your dash panel? Is it Metra from Crutchfield?

It was with my Crutchfied order- but not branded- it is better quality than stock- you can see fibers in the plastic in back and its rock hard.

One of the keys to a nice job is really taking pains with the climate control and head units’ relationship to the openings.

I received the same dash trim with my order. It is very nice, I agree it is better quality then the OEM.
 
Took the starter out and had it rebuilt at a greasy starter/alternator electrical shop for 40 bucks. The super nice guy tested it and then replaced the solenoid it about 10 minutes while I waited.

I’m in Dunwoody, can you post the shop name.
 
The rain held off long enough to do a one handed oil change. Thankfully my Jeep is lifted enough that I can do it crouching beside the passenger side because my backyard is pretty well flooded. Came in and made some chicken and dumplings to finish the day. Driving to Maryland this afternoon so I’ll get some seat time in too.

It's slightly noiser,but the drone/vibration noise surprisingly went away so all I hear is straight exhaust which is a annoying and cool for when I wanna hear my jeep.....this is my daily so I'll probably hate it in a week 😆
But the less drone is a plus after taking off the carpet and seat,I got no clue how that went about but I can't complain
