You will also need the other temperature sender. Just like the one up front (for the engine) but it goes on the other side. That harness should be there already.

OMG. On ebay over $300.00 after shipping and tax and it's used.

Glad my TJ came with one at that price!

Will you clarify? Some photos will be very helpful. Thanks.

You should have one of these inside the grill. Whichever side it's on, there's a place for a second one on the other side.

Thanks. That's MIA in either side of my 2004 TJ (X). One more reason not to spend in that direction.

I thought one of them had to be there. It's an input for engine control. However, mine's an '06, 6 cyl.

That's still a rip off. I paid 30.00 for a GM mirror with the connector. I made a harness in about 20 minutes and splices into the dash harness. It took me about an hour.

Yes I wouldnt buy it but others perhaps prefer the plug and play stock mopar option. Crazy how much some of this stock stuff gets online

They are not the original Mopar parts, but work just fine.

These are the same components I used on my jeep w/o any issue what so ever. Here is a nice write up

Nice. Would try and do that or maybe even something with a dashcam before shelling out for the Mopar.
My current mirror is looking a little ratty...

Don't forget about the map lights.
