Default overhead console mystery indicator light?
I just bought a 88 XJ. It is missing a few things here and there. One of which is a lens or cover that goes over what I think is an indicator light between the sun visors. Can anyone tell me what this is?
Thanks

Wrong, its government mandated observation device, they were once affraid jeepers were some sort of counter-culture. J/K.... It is the keyless entry receiver.

haha. I was a little paranoid already. I actually bought the jeep from an under cover narc.

Thanks for the info.
ps.
I don't have the key-fobs for the jeep. How hard is it to by replacements and get them to work?

I think that the programming would have to be done by the dealership as for how hard it would be to find them i don't know maybe a JY? or the Dealer although at the dealer you may pay an arm and a leg
