1037 viewsDriver side has a windshield washer fluid reservoir that is definitely in the way. if you are planning on serious off roading this MUST be removed completely. If you still need one you can get on out of an XJ that mounts up near the brake master cyl that uses the same plug ins etc. Mar 11, 2019

913 viewsPass side. That piece of metal is usually completely removed on these type of jobs but, I decided not to. I cut it and bent it over where the two horns are. I had to modify the horns position so that the wires came down from top instead of sticking out the back which worked well. Mar 11, 2019
