You do not have to disconnect the battery, just just turn off the interior lights using the dash wheel switch. You also don't have to remove the glove box. The first part of the job is pretty easy:

1) Pop off the stock sill plates (just pull them off)

2) Remove the foot well side panels (just pull them off, pulling off the door gasket a bit helps)

3) Remove the under dash panels (plastic push pins)

Then it's just a matter of removing the stock metal sill inserts (by straightening the tabs underneath) from the plastic sill plate, drill a 3/8" hole into the plastic sill plate for the wires, and install the new lighted sill inserts into the sill plates.

The next part is more time consuming but fairly easy. You have to tap into the power wires of the drivers side foot well light (NOT the LED light if applicable), route the new sill power wires in back of the pedals and over to the passenger side, then secure the wires with zip ties (I used my own smaller black ones, not the supplied larger white ones). Then re-install the under dash panels (I used new plastic push pins since it's impossible to remove these without damage).

Now the hard part for me was situating the sill power wires just right (not crimping them), and re-installing the side foot well panels and door sills at the same time (insure you give yourself enough wire lead to do this before securing the wires beforehand with the zip ties). Then just wipe the Jeep sill inserts clean with the supplied alcohol pads.

The finished product...they look awesome at night...coming on when you open the door:




The new lighted Jeep sills look good with my new pedal kit (part #82212055)...

Well as a proud, if somewhat angry WK2 Overland CRD owner, I am planning a trip west from Brisbane, turn right at the rock and then follow the coast all the way around.

Now I'm angry as there are still no real front or rear bars for out ride, and these are pretty much required for what I am planning. Real front bar for a good winch and protection, and rear bar for high-lift jacks, twin spares (have a water bladder for the underfloor wheel well).

But, what sort of wheels? Anyone have any luck with finding some good steelies that are 18" or 17" (and fit)? ]]> Suspension/Driveline/Brakes/Wheels/Tires Carver http://www.jeepgarage.org/f109/off-road-wheel-options-60204.html http://www.jeepgarage.org/f107/paddle-shift-back-to-drive-60203.html Sun, 19 May 2013 07:33:59 GMT On the '14 wk2 when using the paddle shifters - how do you engage regular drive mode again?

I am new to the forum but have been following it for a few months now.

In March I purchased a 14 LTD 6 cyl, 20's, sunroof. I was and am very impressed with this Jeep. So much so that I went got another - only differences are - Hemi and tow package.

I felt the 6 was great for regular driving but would need the Hemi for towing.


The Hemi has a few concerns that I have yet to have taken care of but first I'd like to get everyones opinion about the ride quality between the two.

I find the 6 cylinder has a much more confident ride, smoother, less bouncy. I am not nearly as impressed but the handling as I am with the pentastar engine.

Has anyone been able to drive both and notice any type of difference? (other than the obvious HP difference) I know the Hemi is heavier.


Other concerns with Hemi:

1) wheel vibration at 60mph. I had the tires balanced but there is still a slight vibration
2) pulls to right only on acceleration
3)blue smoke at start up.

I've been trying to search prior to posting. ]]> Grand Cherokee - WK2 STANG678 http://www.jeepgarage.org/f73/14-hemi-vs-v6-ride-quality-60196.html http://www.jeepgarage.org/f77/outside-temp-incorrect-60195.html Sat, 18 May 2013 22:45:21 GMT 2014 GC Overland.

When I start the vehicle, it appears that the outside temp display is sitting wherever it was when I turned it off. It usually takes a few miles to begin changing, assuming there is a difference from last time and I am usually going from temp in late afternoon to temp in the morning, so it can be 30 degrees or so.
