Contrary to what many think, just because we finally got to take this build to the Pa. All Breed Jeep Show it is not totally done. (Are they ever?) We had a few things that needed completion and with winter storage and presents under the Xmas tree it was an opportunity to take care of them. One item missing was sunvisors. A cruise thru Amazon netted us a pair from Rugged Ridge in black. Easy wrap job and thru them under the tree. Installation was straight forward. The windshield frame was already tapped for 10-32 screws. Pulled 8 stainless button head cap screws out of inventory and done. The rear view mirror that we had installed was a glass mount verses the windshield
frame mount and is pretty wide and interferes with the visors in the down position. Gonna have to look for a smaller mirror. There is a birthday coming up in April so that will be another gift. Next item was the soft top channels along the top of the half doors. They were already painted black from original and had alot of wear and scratches and looked awful against the newly painted doors. Removed them and sent them off to the Powdercoaters and had them done in black. A strip of foam was adhered to the mounting surface to protect the door paint and reinstalled. Made a huge difference in appearance. Other items that we had previously taken care of was a larger radiator overflow tank, it was being sucked dry causing some cooling issues and a 
blocked overflow hose allowing the upper radiator hose to collapse. We'll keep you posted on updates.
