I found this thing at the salvage yard and I had to have it. Just wondering if its an aftermarket piece or factory? Thanks.

 

I can't answer your question, but that picture just kind of made my day. I recently bought a 99 Cherokee and this is was the first thing I went digging around for on the forums.

 

nice find. I have never seen one.

 

mines different, the top is longer and fills out the outlined contour that you see passing your box....but mine only had one cover on the top...

again mine came with my jeep and i have no idea if its stock or not...

 

i do believe it was an option from the factory but not a lot of people ended up getting them

 

I need one of those. Time to drive down to Denver and scour every junkyard there and along the Front Range, I suppose...

 

The only one I ever seen it was a disc changer.

 

I have an 8" built in subwoofer where that would go.

But it looks factory.

 

Yeah, this one was housing a CD changer that I decided to leave behind. Did not want to strip the interior to get the complete harness out I guess.

 

Either way its awesome!

 

Very rare & awesome find. In fact it's so rare I never saw that design before.

 

Do not mean to get off topic but I was junk yarding the other day and see an amp under the rear seat on the driver side and it had Jeep engraved into it. Would that be a stock or aftermarket? It did not look aftermarket really.

 

Woah, I'm going to have to start cechking back there at the JY!

I think the Infinity sound system had an outboard amp just like that. Those XJs probably also had tweeters installed by the mirrors in the doors

 

Ya junk yarding is my new favorite hobby!

 

heres the one i had, it eventually got tossed out or left behind in a move
