What Have You Done to Your Renegade Today?

Looks great!

In Washington is says they just need to produce ambient light or reflect, be seen in nighttime conditions up to 600ft, since they have lights built into them, they do that.

They only state that the backs must reflect red or yellow in color, so I don't see the problem with them.

Installed a MOMO Nero shift knob (http://www.momousa.com/tuning/shift-knobs/nero.html) because the stock knob is a little slick when your hands are cold. Thought about the MOMO Race Airleather, but having a billet aluminum shifter in my 98 mustang taught me that those things get stupid hot in the summer, and cause frostbite in the winter.

 

I just ordered those. Did you have to remove anything to install these?

How did you remove the sidemarkers?

Pop hood. Reach in fender, press and release sidemarker silver retaining clip.

Got a couple of things accomplished: painted most of the trim a metallic blue since I did not agree with the weird gold color. Still need to do the cup holder trim because it is scary hard to pull off and I had to go get some E6000 in case anything snaps. I also modified an old clutch pedal cover I had from my last stick driven car and put that on the Renegade. This clutch pedal cover corrects the asymmetry in my legs (left leg shorter, yay genetics!) and allows me to sit properly in the seat to comfortably drive the Jeep.

 

Last Wednesday I put Jeep slush mats in ARTOO, definitely worth it for me. It has kept heavy wet snow and mud from getting in the carpet. Plus protected it from French fries, apple juice, and chocolate milk.

Replaced my stock grab handles with some custom made paracord grab handles. Red and black to match the Trailhawk's interior. Took me about 30min each to make them. It is a King Cobra braid with red weaved down the sides.

Made some Paracord grab handles for the Driver and Passenger headrests.



Here they are installed (view from the back seat):

 

Installed my trailer hitch yesterday. It took about 9 hours with an hour break ( total of ten) I had no real trouble except for I broke a few clips. They do give you extra so it's okay. Also learned that my 2015 had a extra screw holding the bottom of wheel liner to bumper.

I took photos but my phone is too good at pictures or something and I will upload after.

All in all its a great kit and I love how it turned out, but now what do I do with my old bumper? Do you guys think I could go to a recycling place as it's steel? Or would someone want it? It's a trailhawk bumper but I took the hook

 

Had my smooshed exhaust fixed. Dodged a crazy delivery truck driver and ran over... something... and it smooshed my exhaust pipe against the rear diff pretty hard. Rear diff is fine but the exhaust was pinched down so much I had to cut it and try to round it out myself so I could drive it. I happened to have a spare Magnaflow 4" Tube (2.5" I/O). The shop just cut off the damage and removed the OEM muffler, bent some new pipe and hung everything up. I decided to leave the resonator on because there was waaay to much drone in the Jeep (for my liking) with it off.

 

wrapped my side markers red

Map Pocket for ARTOO by friskyspatula posted Feb 7, 2017 at 11:59 AM

So this is my first "modification". Through a little mix-up at the dealership I received a 2015 Owner's Manual packet for my 2016. I did get the correct one, but they said I could keep the 2015. I really liked the look of 2015 case so I thought I would keep that part and use it somehow. The lack of a decent door storage area I thought this would be a perfect use for it. Some large 3M velcro command strips later and a couple of minutes later, I now have a nifty map pocket!
