Yeah that is the actual amp, that sits inside the black box.

Considering I had a couple inches of water in my cabin it's no real surprise eh? I'm just amazed that's the only electrical problem I had from the whole mess.

Radio itself powers on and functions, just no sound output. I'll grab another amp from the yard and see if that'll do it, otherwise it's getting ripped out and I'll just put in a new head unit + speakers wired directly.

Thinking about shallow mount speakers mounted to the ceiling some place, mostly so I'll still have music when I go doorless next summer.

Originally because of one of the sensors in the rear. I've since removed all the sensors and wiring. All that's left to remove is the pump in the engine bay.

Who knows which wires these are?

One is for the airbag I assume, another for the cruise control?

How about this collar around the wheel, airbag or cruise?

I really need a FSM :/

You drive a tj, we drive a zj. We have more power while you get more shower. We get the v8 while you get there too late. You have 2 doors well, we have 2 more. Ours costs a grand while yours has a price we cant stand.

Gonna start taking some measurements for some skin in the rear to clean up the overall look of it. Hoping to be able to cover everything I want from 1 piece.... We'll see!

Can't find my damn shears though, may need to buy another pair
