Default need answers to these two questions

I need some help identifying a part it is above the rearview mirror on the headliner, it looks like a button or mini camera, what is it exactly, and what size gas tank came on the 95 Cherokee Country 4.0 inline 6? Thanks in advance.

You most likely won't. Also that keyless entry system was very poorly designed. Any aftermarket solution is immensely better.

^This, the OE keyless entry is IR (infra-red) like a TV remote and is very short range and line of sight only. You can get an aftermarket RF (radio-frequency, like all modern vehicles use) system that is many times better than that old 80s-tech OE system for less than the cost of an OE remote (they don't make them any more so the only ones you'll find are 20+ year old used one on eBay that tend to be ridiculously overpriced and often don't last long due to age/wear).


I put this in my XJ to replace the OE system a few years ago, not bad for $10: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Ca...TkAAOSwjMJXBjN-
