Wired back in my factory radio connector and wired my new speaker wires to it, amp turn on and a ground. Now to more fighting to wire in a deck. Just take adapter out and wire deck to it then plug it in. Now it's all plug and play.
Also found my fault I had in my rear speaker wires and pulled them out of the harness from hatch to backseat. And also did some organizing and clean up

Today i trimmed the fenders to match the TJ flares. 4 hours for both fronts and another 4 for one rear. I know what and where to cut so that should help for the other rear when I get a chance. Cut into the front and rear of the rear fender so I had to buy sealer to fix the 2 small gaps. First 2 pics are before/after. Only took off about an 1-1.5" but it was significant. TJ flares are starting to blend finally.

Yeah, the rear is way easier than the front. I was able to replace both rear springs and shackles on my own but, had to get a couple of extra bodies to help with the front.

Also located my HID's with projectors for $235 local so I will be getting those this week! There's a pic of the projectors that I will have.
Cleaned up the rear where the PO did a cut-n-fold so it doesn't stick out and grab the tire when I stuff the tires. Front is also clearing fine. This hill wasn't enough to get full compression but it close enough!
