I figured I'd make this to get another fun discussion going. I'd like everyone to post the things they are wanting for Christmas or any other holiday you celebrate that falls around the same time!

I'm looking for things to buy/ask for, and I know everyone else is too. Maybe this will help trigger some ideas!

@Creation;

this: http://www.skidmore.edu/~pdwyer/e/backup_bulbs.htm
is a really worthwhile mod to do if you want bright back up lights.

I didn't remark on when exactly I did it but I'm coming up on a year of ownership so at least 8 months ago...banging over my logging roads, lots of highway, city and no issues with bulbs wriggling loose or anything.

When I use reverse in these low light, dark days it is truly amazing how bright it gets and others, say in a mall lot, can certainly see me.

Be real careful, you can fubar a lamp right quick...I didn't but on other forums the advice is to buy at least one extra. Once they are done and in...gold!

my coolest gift would be to win p.o.t.m ;)
but I want a hood deflector/bug shield!
I also would like roof racks!
nerf bars, a push/bull bar................do you think this would look ok on a 2wd? even if I'm going for a street look?
and exhaust(I have an idea on what I want to do, I havn't seen anyone do what I have in mind)

Pre-runner look for sure, street look...maybe?
Street look with bull bar = no
Street look with the right set of sliders on the side = yes.

Make that bull bar a elegant light rail = yes.

Go slow as you kreep away from stock, make sure its right.
Like the kid who puts everything into his engine and doesn't do the tires, brakes and suspension to go along with the HP...generally doesn't turn out so good.

With the stuff you are wishing for above, sounds to me like you are going pre-runner look, even if you haven't fully come to terms with it yet.

ScanGauge or similar, and RRO sliders. The Heart wants what the Heart wants...

I saw that, but if there is the only thing that makes me happier that pay the lower price, is to see the flag and the "Made in USA" or even better "Made in Canada" sticker :smiley_thumbs_up:

The order's in!

My wife just ordered Weathertech Digital Fit floor liners (front ones only, damn those things are expensive).

Figure if the only thing I get for X-mass are floor mats, God damn it, they're gonna be nice!

In case I forgot to mention it,... I LOVE my Jeep (Oh,... and my wife's OK too)

Here's a picture of her,... my Jeep that is.

I was thinking about spacers too but really don't need them til I get TJ or JK Rubi wheels. It would give the Pat a little nicer stance though :rolleyes:

Rubi rims have smaller offset than OE rims. The spacers will make them stick out even further out.
