Removed some window stickers on the back window that came with the Jeep.
Detailed the interior.
Topped off the window washer fluid.
Installed my new black Weathertech floor mats
Installed my fuzzy new dash cover. Love it! https://www.carid.com/1999-jeep-cher...parentsubmodel[]=SUBMODEL|Sport
Fixed the tow of the front tires (they were towed in 1/8 inch).

Now for a new battery....

Might want to give this a read if you do. Especially the side marker light part.

What relay did you use? I put a LED relay in when I went to LED flashers and lost my hazard flashers.

Cool. I just finished painting and installing my set yesterday. I don't know if yours came with instructions, but it looks like you might have them in backwards.
Maybe i'm just seeing things though

Off the website.

I think you should just give it to me and you won't have to deal with that pesky leak.

That's what got me. It's hard to tell from the pictures. I didn't have to cut much on mine because the rockers were just gone.
