A little house cleaning under the hood...
What did you do to your WK2 today?
What did you guys accomplish with your Jeeps this weekend? I was quite surprised that it was able to pull out the lilac bush (rather tree at this point.) if the strap would have been longer I would have actually jerked on it, I was afraid of it ending up in the back window though. I do have to question why it automatically starts in 2nd gear instead of 1st gear though, I just used the paddle shifters to get into 1st.

New wood interior kit ( i know not the most popular Mod. 
) and Tow Hitch pictures follow. For the Dash i added chrome stick-on molding to match the factory practice of having chrome trim across the bottom. If we grow tired of it it can be removed used the Min. amount of pieces supplied. i could find few photos of the wood interior Mod. especially in the Limited's trim Sicilian Ash. Carbon Fiber seems to be a much more popular choice. Most seem to want to murder their JEEP out in blacks and darker shades, but I like this Winter Chill/Frost combo and other than the lack of a hitch was exactly as I'd order it. more pics to follow.

...Last but not least - the hitch. $ 284.00 US, plug connect. $50.60. labor $ 85.00 with tax $29.98 = $448.88. the only thing i really wanted it didn't come with. & next a bike clamp. the threads here are a wealth of Info. Thanks

Remin® - Jeep Grand Cherokee 2012 Full Kit
the Remin kit above - Superior to the A&I kit below near as i can tell.
B&I® - Jeep Grand Cherokee 2012 Interior Dash Kits
they get pricey if you want the overhead pieces which i didn't but i did want the rear seat cupholder piece.
Make sure to pay special attention to the factory grain match as there are at least three choices depending upon model (and Yr.) Laredo, Limited, Overland and SRT.
I only used 10 pieces of the 22 or so supplied. window lift surrounds, three dash & HVC surfaces, rear cupholder and rear AC vents. two chrome strips.
In the photos it all looks really super bright with the close in flash -but in reality they just blend in with the ambient light.
I have more surprises in mind Incl. pedals for the interior. SRT springs and maybe brakes eventually.
We're doing a house remodel so that's getting precedent.
i'm thinking now of a Shark antenna but have not done any research yet.

Vinyl wrapped all chrome trim and swapped out the emblems. Mirrors, handles, and wheels next month.

did you take off all chrome then wrap ?
or did you throw the wrap over it and cut it

What did you do to restore them? They look great. I also have corrosion on all 4.
