Something like a Big Bear, Willy’s, or Sport around 35k MSRP. Will have to see what lease dills are like. Preferred options would be 3.73s, auto, and LEDs.
That is a though combo.
You have to get a sport S to get power doors/windows etc, + connectivity group+ Hardtop.
~35-36k msrp to get all that
Gears+LEDs are mostly spec's to higher trims and VERY hard to find.
Yeah, I'm noticing this... I'll see what's out there and if the right
pops up go for it.
Gears are on either the high end stuff, or the stripped out base models. Not too common in the middle.

I'd skip the LED option and do it yourself afterwards.. Jeep charges $600 for the package, but Max linked the MOPAR lights for like $420...
Actually scratch that.. I just saw that the $420 was per side, and the whole kit is $840. If you can find one with LEDs then
Yeah, LED's aren't super important because the aftermarket has soooo many options. Would just be a nice to have if I can find it.

RIght? Annoying AF. Plus, all these links are only for headlights, then you have to do the fog lights too.. Where the factory kit for the $600 comes with them. Makes one of the cheap Chinese ones with good reviews on Amazon seem more worth taking the risk on...

Found this one too.

I'd probably go OEM. The chinese shit is worthless after 1-2 years. At least you can resell the OEM.

OEM, JW Speaker, or Truck-Lite would most likely be what I would go with. JW Speaker and Truck-Lite are made in the USA.

Considering they are priced lower than the actual option, I see 0 reasons to make it a requirement.

Right but I’m saying those supposedly high quality units are decently priced

Dang
I <3 that my Jeep love is contagious on here... we could all soon have a Jeep Thing out here.
What are the details? Models? Specs? MSRP?

Finally paid attention to how Wranglers are plated out here. Didn't know if they'd get the car sequence of 1XXX111, or the
sequence of 11111X1. They get the car sequencing.

I love Jeeps. Want one, but it makes less sense than a

We can go wheelin' when I get one.

Jalopnick is straight up ripping everything from the JLforums and posting it on their site.

So pending everything it seems like the smartest thing to do is to wait for the JLU, sure the
's are starting to pop on JKUs however, the JLU updates are just too hard to pass up. Gotta at least wait until the reveal...
