i was looking for a new cargo light assembly.. as mine is currently kind of broken... and i came across this.. but it doesnt look anything at all like the ones in my 96... is this a grand cherokee assembly?

hmmm... i wonder if its plug n play? its not my color.. but i can always spray it to match.. black would look good with the grey...

the cargo light assembly button is broken.. and i have the common issue where the cargo lights do not come on when i pop my rear hatch... so thats one of my projects to work on at the moment...

since my jeep is kind of a restoration... thats been most of my projects to date.. just getting things to work at they should

Not sure about plug and play, but any mod should be plain and simple.

ordered :-) worth a shot

i would start a little build/resto thread for my xj... just not sure a dome light swap would be worth reading lol

infact... im not sure any of my fixes are worth reading about...

It says 84 to 96, but 96 was the "bastard" year.

yeah... my front dome is just a cover and housing... there are no buttons or anything like that.. you take the cover off and theres one bulb in it.. thats it..

the rear dome switch is broken.. so thats why i went ahead and ordered these... i will paint to match and see if i cant mod the front one in to work properly..

Can I see a picture of your headliner? I only have one dome light. I'm a 96 too.

By the way, start a build thread! I love stock builds or "restomod"-esque builds and stuff like that.
