This is my headliner "fix" for now. Looks pretty goofy but it gets the job done.

Thanks! Yeah the vent windows are sweet. Some people don't really like them from what I've read but I think they are great.

So far just recharged the A/C. Blowing cold again. (Had a very slow leak, apparently single can of RedTek LeakSeal was enough to make the compressor engage again)

We'll see if the pages stop long enough for me to wire up the fog lights too.

Default Wires crossed from factory

Installed 4 new speakers.
I did a continuity check and found out that 2 of the speakers where wired backwards from the factory. Color coding was right so they must have been crossed somewhere between radio and speakers during assembly. I double checked everything to make sure then I put all the old stuff back in and it sounds sooooo much better now. No need to upgrade anymore. saved a few $$$

Oh did a winch functional since I have't used it in over a year. Ended taking the motor off to clean and lubricate everything. Now Im almost looking forward to getting stuck... Or pull someone out.

Finally fixed the ****ing popping noise coming from my steering, ended up being the stupid factory upper track bar bracket bolt strip thingy. Quick 5 buck in grade 8 flange bolts/nuts and all better.

I did the projector and I'm running 6000k hids

I love them its as clear as day and it surprising doesn't blind people with them adjusted right. I would recommend them to anyone with a xj.
