Tusk rear window installed. Didn’t have to move the sound bar so bonus there.

Lastly (for now) installed side mirrors. I really hope these work out because they are way better than the cheap ones I put on the P1K5.

Spring back into place when hit but can still be folded for travel. Reasonably priced.

Well the Tusk Harness wasn’t worth a crap. By day 2 the lap belt buckle was sticking so bad the wife needed help getting out. I told her if she got stuck again I was going to cut it out……New .50 cal harness’s on order.

I have had very good service out of my Crow Enterprizes harness.

Now that takeover is done and we are home, time for some electrical stuff. I didn't have time to do the electrical like I wanted in an organized planned out fashion. Instead I went with the easiest route which was the turnpro 40 amp relay/bus bar from the club store. Super easy install and worked great all week. However, the wife was annoyed that she had to restart the buggy, reconnect Bluetooth, play with the chase light etc every time we stopped/started up again.

The easy solution is the Aux/key on switch from the club store. I did this in the pioneer and it has worked great for a couple years. I think I want to keep the turn pro relay as I don't see me needing more than 40Amps anyway but I think I've confused myself on how to install the switch in conjunction with it vs a standard stinger/ fuse block.

Below is my working set up and the store diagram. The question is where do I attach the stinger and key on switch post?

Edit: Alright I believe this is what I need. Not sure why that had me so confused.

Any issues with the bolts?.........

Came out just fine so I used a file to round the corners of the bolt head to make it more challenging next time.

You remind me of someone who prefers the smoke wrench over acetone.

Replacement HMF rear bumper showed up. Correct color this time. I am worried it won’t fit in the trailer though….

Just to put this in the correct thread, how do you guys keep multiple threads straight. I must be getting old.

First oil change completed, only 200 smiles/miles late thanks to takeover. The oil was surprisingly dirty for 300 miles. I checked the sub trans dip stick and that looked clear like new so I left it alone.

Also added the club store Aux power switch so the wife will be happy.

Edit: Almost forgot, I installed the jeep shifter boot mod with some longer screws in the shift gate. Seems like it should help close that hole up some.

Another project for this evening…

 

[Jankyeye]

All trough takeover the wife complained she wasn’t strong enough to open and close the SATV split windshield so we upgraded to the SATV power windshield. Easy install plenty of wire.

It does open and close a little slow but it’s smooth. And of course the wife complained she had to hold the button since it doesn’t auto open/close.

And while it also has the new logo, it’s about as unobtrusive as it can be.

They probably offer instructions for removing it. I bet they start something like this…
Start your plasma cutter at the roofline of the driver’s side of the machine and move slowly in a straight line to the bottom passenger side of the window with plasma cutter on highest possible level.
