I recently moved my antenna on my wrangler to the rear quarter panel in order for my snorkel to fit a bit more practical like.

Here is what it ended up being:

I've also done an upgrade that I would highly recommend and that would be to take out the carpet and put truck bedliner in.

here is a pic from when I had to take all the crap out

here is a pic of after I had rough sanded it to score up the clear caot so the liner would stick better

here is the finished product (I am going t have to put another coat on in the spring, but this has lasted a while with just one coat that I sprayed on)

Yea I need to do bed liner. All you have to do is just rip out the carpet and seats basically right? Its probally even easier for the YJ... Cool

yeah, I jsut started ripping stuff out, then washed it off, then sanded it to score the clear coat, then just sprayed it on, let it dry and put everything back. I bought the aerosol can ones, I didn't get the real liner that you roll on. I want to do that, but haven't had the money and this has lasted for a while and alot of abuse.

flush-mount LED taillights....looks sweet and a pretty simple install (on a YJ anyway :) )

that looks pretty sweet. I have been toying with the idea of doing that with mine and also putting my 3rd brake light to the middle of my spare tire carrier as a 2" round led. maybe when it gets a bit warmer ;)

I used a cheezy spray on bed liner that I bought from Advance Auto. I also did a quick spray of 2 cans of rubberized undecoating on where the front and rear passenger feet areas are for extra durability. Total cost was about $45 and about 4 hours of time with beer in between ;)

Just threw on some cheapo 55w fog lites facing my front axle so i can see whats under me at nite when im wheeeling. It makes a world of a difference. I recommend this cheap little mod to everyone who wheels in the dark. Pics are at my cardomain site on the last page - - - http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/712387

to those of you who did the LED conversion...did you need to do anything for the backup lights?

I put some cheap lights under my bumper and connected them to the backup light cable. Not a big deal just be careful and not blow the fuse.
