Well, threw the rack on my roof today and it looked different from what I photoshopped. I found that I actually ordered the 50202M not the 50202L. If anyone around Cherry Hill, NJ is looking for a roof rack, hit me up. I'm going to be buying the 50202L instead as it is 14" longer. Can't believe the trouble I've had with this thing. It is in New but assembled state.
As for the HIDs, I will post pictures later today. Also, I decided to do something with the third break light involving spray tint and an LED. I assume you can guess somewhat what I did.

First off, Here's a picture of my newly installed HIDs from yesterday:
Did a few things today. First, put the rack on, then took it off because I found that I ordered the wrong one.
Here's Today's before picture:
Then, I got decals in the mail for the back windshield.
Then I tinted my third brake light (except for "JEEP")
I also put a 5 SMD T10 LED in place of the old incandescent bulb I had in the third brake light. Heres a picture of the LED:
Finally, I received my Ba15S LEDs in the mail and installed them. I'll be taking pictures of my interior when it is all finished.
*These go in the kicker panel (under dashboard)

Well, decided since I had nothing better to do, I would try and figure out the cargo dome light. I took it out and using a spare rigid loop festoon and a adaptor that came with the front map light kits, I pieced together a temporary LED replacement. When I receive the ones I ordered (From China, Dammit!) I will replace them to have a better glow. Pictures will be posted here tonight of all the interior lights for those curious.
