I would like to apologize for the stupid commentary on the first vid. I was dead on my feet after cooking in that shop all day, brain was gone

On the second, Music was slightly louder than the jeep if it's not your thing, sorry :D

Been about a month since i started daily driving the jeep. Still tinkering on it here and there and I'm pleased to report no major issues.
I replaced my mirrors, both the doors and the inside one. Took rear view out of a 01 Tahoe and made sure I grabbed the sensor from behind the grill.
The side mirrors came off an 80's square body ranger and fit the truck almost perfectly.

Got the interior more or less done ( for now ) Thanks to Hoot for a free mat and a ton of knobs and other odds and ends.

Added some chain eyelets to the rear bumper as well as a few stickers :D

And have been tinkering with making my own LED lights, the one pictured will be going into my glove box after burning the crap outta my hand on the naked bulb in there.

See some of you at Retro's Wrench-a-Thon :-bd
