Yeah, I've several requests to purchase em' right after I picked em' up. If I don't keep them I'll probably list on this forum first. My originals aren't ripped, but the PO stained the crap out of em' and I haven't been able to get em' clean.
These do look great tho!
I have a brand new set of round LED tail lamps I bought off Amazon a few months ago. I just can't bring myself to cut 5" holes in my tub.

I get this, I always feel the same way. I love the way the CJ style front signals look in the TJ, but I really don't want to cut my grill.
Someone had a set listed around here but he was asking 2500.00 for them. There is also a set of Columbia Edition seats on fb marketplace for 2000.00. Too rich for my blood.

That seems way high. My impression is they usually go for somewhere between $1000 and $1500.

I relocated my locker pumps to under the brake booster. I found where the wires for the pumps come into the engine compartment and spliced them there. I also had to make splash shields for them due to my hood vents. But everything works great!
At the moment things are going a little slowly.
the rear bumper will be new, i have to adjust and paint it.
my fog taillight (Required in Germany) must still be in its place.
the shift sleeve was frayed, I made a template and my wife sewed a new gear lever out of scraps of leather.
When I bought the gear knob, I overlooked that my TJ doesn't have 5 gears
now I'm thinking of getting a 5-speed gearbox.

I’ve never looked for these armrests before but I’ve often said (every time I drive my Jeep,lol) “I really wish there was an armrest!” Low and behold, I’m putting these on Christmas list!
Mine just scraped off with a screwdriver - it was that bad!
I love the look of the camo Willys seats! They're waterproof too. I used to have a set.
I'm looking at the ones that just bolt on and cover the original holes, without cutting up the tub.
Lucky you. half of mine came off easy, the rest was a lot of cursing.
Removing the oxidation from all the cast aluminum sucked too.
I couldn't find the exact link, but these are close.

Checked out those armrests and thought they were an outstanding idea; I have a tendency to rest my elbow against the pull handles.
Just ordered a set of the armrests from www.misch4x4.com for my birthday.
Thanks for the link....
Installed a set of Oracle headlights after a failed attempt to install a mis-built set of Morimoto gen 1's
Apparently I ordered the ones with Halos, one should never shop the internet after a few Saturday night cocktails................
Also swapped the broken instrument bezel and knee bolster with the ones I got off fleabay
added LED cluster bulbs (what LED bulbs are we using for the AC/heater controls?)
Swapped the powerport for a dual USB (switched) outlet and ran a hardwire for the GPS

I was going to get these flange mounts but they still require cutting the tub

Built and installed new battery cables, I also used the military style clamps. Cleaned up the battery real good and put it all back together.
