Every other section has this stickied so I thought I would start one. Forgive me if its in there already but I could not find it.
Anyway here's what I did.
After removing the different cover for a routine fluid change I decided to paint the cover, it needed a little touching up so I thought I would go ahead and paint it red. I already had some farm equipment paint on hand, I'm pretty sure it will hold up to any temps that might be reached.

Placed sound deadening panels. Yesterday I did the cargo area, and today I did the front and rear floor boards. Next weekend I'll do the doors. Already the difference is amazing. The stock stereo sounds amazing, and the noise is knocked way down. Stinger was the brand I used. I believe the panels were 18"x36". Stinger was way less expensive than Dynomat. Bought them off of Amazon.

Bestop doors do not bolt on. Just slip into the hinge like the full doors. I would be interested to know if any tube doors bolt on.

But, I leave the nuts out of my full doors also. I put the nuts back in one time after running doorless. I was worried about stretching the paint when bolting the full doors back on, so I dropped the nuts in my console. Of course, I always lock my doors so they don't get stolen.
Yup the ones I had had bolts.

Yes they are LED an they are rated at 3800lumens each. I ordered a mopar wiring harness (should be plug and play-ish) and the smittybilt A pillar mounts because I wanted to tuck them down and away to minimize the windshield obstruction and glare
If I remeber well another guy complained that he had to cut the bolt with the low mounted Smittybilt bracket. I used the Dually D2 and they have thiny bolts so they fits with the smittybilt bracket.

I dont remember what light he had and it is not a big problem to cut a bolt.
