New interior

[Duke Cannon]

Yesterday I got the interior removed, and ran a few more speaker wires. Today I'll fit the new carpet and put everything back.

Are you changing anything else besides the carpet?

 

[Duke Cannon]

Next month I'm changing the seat covers. Thinking of red/black with diamond stitch. Pricing different options rn. I already switched the stereo and speakers. I was thinking of changing dash lights to red LED. But I'll wait on that. I really don't drive in the dark enough to notice it.

One of the great things about TJs is how easy it is to remove the interior!

What carpet are you going with?

Do yourself a favor and put down some sound deading and heat blocking material.

Seconded. A thin layer of closed cell on top of the butyl sound deadening greatly improves the sound inside. Inexpensive and easy to manage.

Yeah I need to add more on the rear tubs and add closed cell.

The aftermarket Magnaflow high flow 2.5" cat I put on my 97 gets hot. So probably more in the passenger area.

I ordered the complete kit from Quadratec. It's installed, just need to put the interior back together.

Agree with Mac, plus--insulate the center console before you put it back. I had some 1" solid foam lying around, along with some 3M spray adhesive for the flat undersides, and I zip tied some old, oversized foam drink coozys to the underside of each drink holder.
