I'd kill to be a mod for a night on this thread.

I read it beginning to end the other night, half of it is useless banter, sad that good info gets lost in the cluster.

Flashlight mini-mag mounted to the dash by pushing the screws for the panel through the belt holster. I use the mag all the time especially when the jeep acts up. Self adhesive wire anchors and zip ties to hold a phone charger cable out of the way.


Don't press the green button...

When I did mine, I was the same way. I found a few runs the next day that I don't remember causing.
