I'd ask you for one, but shipping from South Africa might be a little much
Looks good. Welcome to the forum!

Put a new battery in MinezJeep...hez so happy now! So THAAAAT's why the headlights would flash off and on when I tried to start it. It did it a couple of times before...but when I put the key in the front passenger-side door...they would stop flashin'...then it would start fine. Guess I didn't get the hint...poor guy was TRYIN' to tell me.

In my parts Cherokee the guy ran some after market sound stuff. He didnt leave my any cool speakers but left all the parts. That included a Huge battery. So I put it in my Jeep thinking itd be all good. But my slowly dying alternator doesnt agree... So coz I currently cant walk I went on the internet and looked at some alternators that will charge the battery.

Tore the back trim off the inside and fixed the stuck shoulder harness for the seat belt (wouldn't release so the kid could buckle up). Stupid little plastic clip. Oh well. Working like a charm again.

I'm at two months for mine after painstakingly searching every XJ and ZJ in the salvage yard three times. I'm too lazy for my own good. In unrelated news, I found the short in my new speaker installation and fixed it, but I still haven't started work on the false floor or the sub installation lol
