    Wiper washer sprayer

    The FSM for the '05 claims that the nozzles (both front and rear) “cannot be adjusted or repaired.” While it's true that every FSM that I've consulted on this matter has claimed the same thing (that is, just the FSM for the '05 KJ), the picture makes it look like its molded from solid plastic...

    Tire pressure monitoring system

    The description quoted from L.O.S.T. isn't entirely accurate. There are two sensor-bearing variants of the '05 TPM; Base and Premium. If the EVIC shows you the pressures for each tire, you have premium. If it doesn't, but your factory wheels had the sensors, you have the base TPM. If your...

    Adsense advertisements

    In general, they'll offer physical checks or some sort of electronic funds transfer, or both. However they pay you, most or all advertising vendors are required to (at the very least) submit tax information on payments they've made — you are engaging in a business relationship with them after...

    Anyone see the 08 Liberty pics?

    Maybe you're looking at the wrong pictures.

    Anyone see the 08 Liberty pics?

    Yes, sadly, it is old news. We've all seen the pictures, and then wept openly, long into the night.

    Dr. Z Promoting CRD

    I think he even says that it's a diesel in that commercial, although it's such a dense fact-dump that it's hard to pick stuff out. :) Doesn't he say something about flex-fuel and hybrid Jeeps in one of those commercials too? I always thought the Jeep crowd would be a good target for...

    Bluetooth Audio...opinions?

    I just wanted to add (concerning those FM modulators); they don't work so well in big (radio) markets where there aren't many free frequencies. Mind you, by this metric, Detroit is a big market, and even Saginaw is somewhat crowded. I had much better experiences with cheap cassette adapters than...

    Trading in my KJ for a Honda CR-V

    God, that even sounds like a Honda slogan. *sigh* Don't mind me.

    Trading in my KJ for a Honda CR-V

    Having owned Hondas for a long time prior to the KJ, I honestly see nothing wrong with the CR-V; it's targeted at people who want the SUV profile but have no use for the SUV ruggedness, and that's a real market. Nothing, aside from the fact that I almost got stuck in the thing just trying to sit...

    Harman Kardon - Drive+Play

    I know this thing has been around for a while, so has anyone tried one? Sure, now I can get an adapter that will connect an iPod to my RBQ, but if I eventually decided to replace it, obviously that thing would no longer help me. One of my pet peeves for iPod attachement kits is the vendor...

    Windshield wipers

    About 15 years ago I made the mistake of trying out the anti-fog stuff that was next to the rain-x. I never got that shit off of the damned inside of the windshield. Sure, you could see clearly when there was fog on the inside of the glass, which was nice, but there was this haze whenever it was...

    Stereo mounting kit

    For what it's worth, Crutchfield also sells their installation accessories separately. Talk to one of their sales wonks; they're usually pretty helpful.

    One of those gas threads again.(sorry)

    My recollection is that fuel blended for winter gives you lower MPG to start with. So does a cold engine. And definitely short trips; you wouldn't believe the difference in MPG my Civic gave me between driving locally and driving to Ann Arbor (about 50 miles, all freeway).

    Amp issue

    Try flipping the left and right channels — since you've tested for bad cables, that will tell you which end of the cable your problem is on.

    Owners Manual

    Gosh, and my excitement was limited to cutting off the guy when he started to clumsily explain how part-time and full-time differ.

    Turning off the chimes...

    I was so excited when I read this, thinking you were talking about the seatbelt warning that annoys me — do people really buckle up before starting the car? Maybe I'm old-fashioned or something, but I tend to think that loud seat-belt warnings with the car still in Park are just silly. :)

    Stereo mounting kit

    Yes, Crutchfield — they give you instructions written by them in English, in addition to the vendor's Engrish ones, translated from the original Japanese through German, Iclandic, Russian, Klingon, and Spanish all while skydiving.
