[QUOTE=l3it3r;5828798]You should check out the smittybuilt GEAR seat covers

Yeah I've seen them in my catalogs but they look like they are for stock height seats only. I wonder if they'll come out with lowback versions?

How are the Krawlers on pavement? I know they kick arse off highway, but I do use my Jeep as a daily driver. I couldn't afford to replace tires every year! My original plan was to use M-37 stlye rims with military tires, but I needed something fast and cheap and easy to replace for now. Once the look is completed, then I'll focus on better tires. The all terrains work ok for the type of trail riding I do. I need lockers first anyways...

I just got this e-mail from Smittybilt...

Hello Jake,

Sorry, the current GEAR seat covers will not work on the lowback seats. No plans at this time to make some that do. Please check back periodically for any updates.

Regards,
Ray Anamos

I would get a cluster out of a HMMWV! This piece can be had for 17 bucks, just build around it!



Fill it with some of these:




Oh and imagine something like this but for the diff lock or 4wd indicator:





If your gonna go for the military look go all out!

You can get 12v versions from other military vehicles. I don't think that piece is made directly by AM General anyways
