I need to replace this small part that encases the push-start button, and everything seems to be $300-$450 for a small plastic part. Does anyone have a better solution, and/or different part number to research? Thank you in advance.

how do I remove this? I keep seeing videos that say I need to turn clips counterclockwise to release but I’ve felt around and don’t feel any clips. please help!!

I like the idea of TPE because they seem easier to clean, especially when there’s dirt, or water. But I’m also wondering if OEM mats are better for comfort and long term use?

Hi, how can I repair my broken antenna?

Inside is a closed profile - no acces. How to dismantle this and change? Any idea?

Has this been a recall or anything for anybody?

I have a 2017 Grand Cherokee 5.7 Hemi. I recently had the factory center suitcase muffler removed and replaced with an X-pipe. I kept both factory rear resonators.

From idle to around 3,000 RPM it sounds great. Nice deep Hemi/V8 sound and pretty much exactly what I wanted. The problem is once I get into roughly 3,000–6,000 RPM it gets really raspy and I’m not a huge fan of the sound.

For anyone running a similar suitcase delete/X-pipe setup, what did you do to get rid of the higher RPM rasp without killing the deeper low RPM sound?

I’ve considered adding a pair of small resonators like the Carven R-Series after the X-pipe while keeping the factory rear resonators. Curious what setups have worked for you guys and whether adding resonators cleaned up the rasp without making it too quiet.

Any help is appreciated!

I’m a novice when it comes to mechanical stuff. Is this no longer drivable? I bought the jeep for 500$, everything else works and runs fine. Just curious about the structural integrity with that amount of rust. Thanks.

I specifically mean the red bar in the front.

My vehicle has been sitting overnight. Should my coolant be at the first line ? Thank you in advance for the advice.

Almost looks OEM. Only visible cable is the little bit hanging in the rear by the window.

Ran the cables shoved into the pillars and behind the rubber door seals. Whole install took less than 30 minutes. Hardest part was setting up the app tbh.

I was able to order it on Aliexpress for like $60 cheaper than their website and recieved it in a little over a week.

180k. All ours.

Just drove off the lot and along the 80ish miles drive home all lights turned on and vehicle went into a reduced engine mode. We then had to have it towed through roadside assistance. Dealership claims there was an issue with an update they did right before we picked it up along with that a small vacuum leak. They have since corrected both and claim the vehicle is safe and everything is ok. Has anybody had any similar experience? Should we take the car back?
