Love that one of the pics used is of a HU with a tape deck... was the CJ ever offered with a tape deck?

Also for a different look I'd consider getting some vinyl paint or there is a method now that can make them look like carbon fiber, depending on the look you're going for. It's called hydro dipping, ask around at paint shops it's a cool way to customize small body parts like that.

This is who I brought mine off. Had for 4 years - does exactly what it should and looks fine. Not quite a 100% fit but, as stated above, hardly noticable

I havent fitted it yet, but the finish seems ok, no scratches etc. Looks good so far, but I'll see when its fitted. It also turned up the next day after ordering :-)

Do we have a DIY here for fitting them?

Theres a DIY for removing it. If you can remove one, you can fit one quite easily :-) I might put some pics up as I do mine though, hoping all the parts arrive to fit next weekend.

I'll look, just wondering how much space is behind the strip that runs the width of the dash with the hazard switch in it. I have a dash cam and GPS power I'd like to hide.

Just run the lead across the header rail of the hoodlining, down the A pillar trim, under the rubber door seal, under the carpet on passenger side and up under\behind dash and what not, video of it on youtube dashcam owners australia channel, takes about 30mins.
