There are several ways to do this, but this is the one I chose. Hope you enjoy the write up. It was done on a 2005 Liberty with a 3.7. Full write up on my site: JeePioneer Radio Control | Speed Limit 88 I would not recommend doing this unless you are familiar with programming and...

Why does everyone hate Bulldog so much? I am using the factory key fob, with the Bulldog. Press the lock button 3 times and the car starts. I think all the remote start kits probably have that if the Bulldog has it. This is the 3rd Bulldog unit I've installed now. The first one was...

Dealers are the absolute mot expensive option. I probably won't need this info since I'm not planning to do a lot to this car because it's my girlfriend's. It would have been nice to find this info. I already installed the remote start, directly soldering into all the lines. Guide to pin...

Thanks for the offer, but I'm really hoping someone knows how to identify connector part numbers so I don't have to splice in a pigtail. Right now I'm about to do a remote start, but this sort of info comes in handy and keeps the wiring cleaner.

I'm new to Jeeps and interested to know where I can find connectors and pins. I'd rather not get pigtail harness parts. For GM parts I look in the service manual and the connector part number is right by the connector end view. Then I go to http://delphi.com/connectors , type it in, and it...

I know you're right. I'm also good at soldering and own an adjustable temp controlled iron ... but I like over thinking it. I also like not working longer than I have to in a cold garage. It would be nice to just plug this thing in and see if it works before cutting into the harness, or...

I can make my own harness (which I would rather do than soldering into the car's harness) if I knew connector and pin part numbers. For GM parts the service manuals tell you the weather pack part number and Mouser.com sells all the parts to build everything. What does Chrysler use? The...

So does anyone know about a T-harness or whatever you want to call an inline connector made for the ignition switch that will fit a 2005 Liberty? That would make this installation quite a bit easier and the going rate for them seems to be $25 or less, some only $7. But I can't find one that...

I have a 2005 Liberty and I was able to also get the Directed Electronics bypass 556CW to work for me. Directions for use: http://www.directedstore.com/manuals/556CW.pdf $15 at Amazon: click here I figured it would actually be helpful to write something at Amazon so not only Jeep people...

I stumbled into this thread looking for a how-to install remote start on my girlfriend's Jeep and couldn't ignore it. Here's a shameless self promotion of my site since I have some automotive inspired Arduino projects... Arduino | Speed Limit 88 Code is open and posted for the software...

Found one and bought it. I'll spare you guys the story, but I'm glad I have good friends that know cars all over the place. I found the car in southern Georgia and somehow it was barely out of my buddy's way to inspect the car and drive it all but 3 hours away from my house in metro Detroit...

Thats too funny. I'll pass on that :icon_biggrin: I've worked on quite a few different cars but never owned anything other than a GM product. This whole Mopar world is new to me. Not sure how you people operate. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything going on I didn't know about...

That is awesome. So if I don't get a Renegade, I could still keep an eye out for the wheels and swap those over. Or I could put the snow tires on the original rims and keep the Renegade wheels for summer. Any special way to go about getting Renegade rims besides Craigslist/ebay/car-parts.com?

What is the size difference from the Renegade wheels to the base wheels or all KJ wheels the same size?

I think I'm fine with 2WD. Our winters haven't been that bad, never do any off roading, commute to work will be short and off highway if weather is bad anyways. Also, we have a relative that works at a tire shop, so swapping on a set of snow tires for 4 months won't be a big deal. I see it as...
