Door Wipes

Post by 69gladiator »

I purchased front door and tailgate wipes from BJS. Is there a trick to installing them? I seem to have hard time getting them started. I am hoping that someone has a tip before I do the passenger side door.

Just roll down the window. And if I remember correctly, I had to very slightly bend the tabs to get them started / aligned with the holes.

Make sure they don't keep the window from rolling up all the way too. Sometimes the piece they mount to is all bent up, and it keeps the window from going all the way up.

Just be slow and careful with it is all I can really add to what's already been said.

There are 2 major differences between new Wranglers and FSJs. FSJs are meant to be both utilitarian and capable, not just capable. FSJs are also rarely initially recognized as Jeeps by the average American.
