Got my door plugs for removable doors done for the front doors...the hard parts, anyways. Harnesses wired, installed in doors, plugs installed in door jambs, just some clean up work and sealing left...took it down the block, and memories of my old CJ-7 came flooding back...one of the best mods I've done in a while

Where did you get that harness kit for the doors? That looks really clean!


Awesome Job!

Junkyard special....came from 2 different Grand Cherokee Laredos. $12.00 for the pair. Made the harnessing myself, just chop the harness where they bridge the gap between door and body, then soldered each of the plug ends on.

Check out the write up in the xj section, and thanks to the original poster of that write up!

I corrected the LCA'S that the previous owner had installed upside down, backwards, and didn't bother adjusted to compensate for the lift. God, how I love cleaning up other people's dirty work. Last weekend was a fun time of tracing wiring, correcting faulty wiring jobs, ripping out wires that went to absolutely nothing and more. Hopefully everyone else is having better times than I lol. Next week is oil pan, gasket, and rear main crank seal

X2. The Comanche just had some plow wires tucked behind the dash. The Camaro on the other hand had about 250ft of hot wire hidden under the carpet from when the PO removed the alarm system and stereo. No fuses, straight to battery.
