      Wow, a long wait. It'll be interesting to see if the fuse block/firewall connector is the same as your stock one. Would be nice if it was so it just bolts in.

          Its "supposed to"...thats why I waited...so it (better)
          The constant delay is really anoying ...typical right hand/left hand between sales and manufacturing I guess.

              Painless Performance !!! Wow, just Wow!!!

              ...Well Here's the latest news..............

              Painless Performance wasn't able to produce a wiring harness as they promised me almost a full year ago........That is, until this week.
              To make things right and perhaps because they are just now getting into the Jeep world.....They are shipping me a 25 circuit ...key in the column and factory bulkhead pass thru wiring harness.....(ready?)

              FREE OF CHARGE............. Thats a $613 Harness!!!
              For real....Arrives tomorrow,... according the UPS notice I just got. Standby.

              Guess what just arrived?

                  The connector is a direct fit...just need to drill out the threaded mounting hole to allow for the new 1/4" mounting bolts instead of the old #10( I think) screws. Super product!

                    So does it use a firewall connector? Or is it just the fuse block that uses the same holes as the old fuse block? My EZ wire block fit the stock location but no firewall connector.

                        Having issues loading the fotos here...says invalid URL but the link works.

                        The dash came out exactly as planned...hi tech , but it looks as if it could be OEM....basically the whole idea behind my build.

                                I'll give it a try,....much more to come now that I have the Painless wiring Harness that took over a year to get...Hope it proves to be worth the wait.
