KFX (DoubleTapXJ or whatever you go by), I've been meaning to reply to you for a while. I CANNOT overemphasise how awesome that sub sounds! Here's a quick shot of the install. I have to get a longer screw for that top trim piece....
Here's the workhorses, my ARB Compressor and 1000 Watt AC Power Inverter.
A shot of everything cleaned out (for once) after a camping trip. I usually at least keep my field toolbag and straps/winch accessories back there. I've also hidden away a plug for my ARB Fridge under the AC Power Inverter.
And.... My cherokee bullying a stock one in the local parking lot... I couldn't resist. Nothing against stock XJ's though

Glad you like it. I had my name changed to DoubleTapXJ.
Found a quiet spot to wheel on Friday, and couldn't resist this hill

My week has been a mixture of running wires, biting my tongue, installing speakers, nearly throwing my back out, and installing a permanent mount for my 1kw AC inverter (which used to just sit under my drivers seat).
Ugly wiring hanging out of my ceiling:

This XJ is truly inspiring! I'll be visiting this thread often.

None at all, just make sure the depth isn't too much for the stock location in the front. The speakers I bought fit like they were made for the application, but you can tell that they are bigger by their sound and heft!Originally Posted by SeniorXJ

Retail is somewhere around $2400, but I spent about $1500 on it I believe. Much better than buying four big halogens or some HID globes for the same price. and the lower profile cuts down on my wind resistance, hence I still see 16 MPG out of this thing on a regular basis.Originally Posted by SeniorXJ

It's been a while since I updated my thread, but I've made some interesting purchases recently and can't wait to bolt them on. Namely a Hesco supercharger, steel rear quarter panels/taillights, and other such goodies 
.
Another update soon!
