Got my answer. Part needs to be fully changed.

I went over the build sheet and sticker for my Patriot to make sure everything is there. I read horror stories on this forum about the factory leaving out stuff or using the wrong parts from different packages to finish builds.

SUTTONRIDER · May 16, 2018

Picked up a 2007 as a second car for the family. Took off the factory crossbars and put up my Thule and RockyMounts fork bars.

Added stubby antenna and blue loctite, CarG7 Bluetooth adapter, and picked up my five piece slushmats from Walmart that I have yet to take time to install...

Shaved down my tail light so my CB antenna mount would fit better.

Recently installed the 2in leveling kit from rough country

Replaced the passenger side half shaft. With 80k on the clock I was expecting things to be corroded and stuck, but it actually went really easy, almost too easy.

Filled the A/C up with that 134 stuff... with this 7 day heat wave here in southern Quebec, couldn’t stand it anymore. Worked wonders!

Put a few fun miles on it.

Landon Chapman · Jul 8, 2018

Added some new wheels/tires...

Welcome to the forums! This perhaps isn't the thread for this topic, but I'll help best I can anyway.

Assuming your 2008 is 4WD, biggest tire you can fit without any modification is 28.5" in diameter. The exact size you can fit also depends on your wheel diameter (16"? 17"?) and rim width.

Check out the suspension and tires subforum for a lot more info, go ahead and create a thread down there so people can jump in and help.

Plasti-Dip'd all the badges from chrome to matte black. Love it.

Ratm0987 · Jul 16, 2018

All led interior lights as well as led head lamp bulbs. New wheels and tires installed tuesday. Jvc 7" DVD, alpine interior speakers. Ct sounds amp pushing 2 Rockford fosgate p1 10"s.

Installed a new dash cam system from BlackVue in front and back.

5speed · Jul 22, 2018

Installed YI 2.7" Screen Full HD 1080P60 165 Wide Angle Dashboard Camera from Amazon. Prime Day special $31.49. This unit has Wi-Fi so I can download video to my phone/tablet without touching the unit. Also I can adjust the dash cam's settings using the app on the phone/tablet. It is powered by the usb port in the glove compartment so it is a much neater install. I'm happy with the quality and price.

I had one of those but it was focused too closely, and after a few days it stopped working right. I returned it for a SpyTec A119s with polarizing filter.

I also have an Eken H9r mounted to the rear view mirror which I got on a flash deal earlier this year, quality is pretty nice and the remote lets me grab pictures as I'm driving. Also just got a Session during Prime Day, because I can never have enough cameras. >

In case anyone's interested in how those cameras look, I submit this video of a person who doesn't understand roundabouts. Post-processing is a bit heavy since I'm still in the New Toy Phase and this wasn't meant to be a comparison video.
