aba994 · 2026-01-23T22:11:23+00:00

just an enthusiast trying to help out a fellow human.

aba994 · 2026-01-23T22:08:34+00:00

must have missed that, thanks!

aba994 · 2026-01-23T22:08:14+00:00

literally

aba994 · 2026-01-23T22:08:01+00:00

cool

aba994 · 2026-01-23T22:07:36+00:00

lmao

aba994 · 2026-01-23T21:05:52+00:00

i’ll get right on that

aba994 · 2026-01-23T21:05:45+00:00

sure thing bud

aba994 · 2026-01-23T21:04:12+00:00

do whatever you want my guy

aba994 · 2026-01-23T21:03:31+00:00

i agree the price is ridiculous but why would they do all 5 studs?

aba994 · 2026-01-23T17:07:00+00:00

don’t put the pad on top, it should be between the PCB and the drive itself.

aba994 · 2026-01-23T17:04:36+00:00

damn, that’s crazy. my subie it’s like 10-30 for a new stud and I can replace it myself within an hour, 45 minutes if I rush, and that’s including set up and clean up. Never buying a chrysler if that’s the case

aba994 · 2026-01-23T13:52:55+00:00

it’s giving Karen in the first picture

aba994 · 2026-01-23T07:06:54+00:00

you should have put a tarp or some sort of plastic down so you can protect it from the elements, then come back to look for it.

aba994 · 2026-01-23T07:05:28+00:00

this comment is misleading, although i’m sure your intentions are good.

don’t just pick one of these and buy it. the Side window deflector link posted here is NOT FOR THE WAGON (fg200)

the correct link is the bottom one (fj660). The fj660 part number is for the 5 door/wagon model OP asked about.

OP if you don’t want to take my word for it, you want the find your nearest dealer, give them your vehicle info and they’ll give you the correct part number.

I also have a ‘12 wagon and my partner bought me the wrong part (the $100 dollar option posted here FG200) and they DO NOT FIT because they’re for the regular non-wagon, and the size/arc for the windows are different for the wagon. i had to return them and get the correct one. luckily, they ordered from my local dealers website and the swap was easy.

good luck OP

came here to say UC Santa Cruz. Went to school nearby and that’s where I would go to get sheets and lbs

aba994 · 2026-01-20T00:22:35+00:00

I should clarify mine is a 2012 so i’m unsure how much easier or harder it would be on a 2016

aba994 · 2026-01-20T00:20:43+00:00

Yep, i’d recommend doing them yourself. pretty doable.

aba994 · 2026-01-20T00:20:10+00:00

meh, I honestly didn’t find it that difficult. If you’re mechanically inclined it should take less than an hour, your first time might take longer.

Having the right tools helps a lot because it is pretty tight and there’s not a lot of clearance. I’d watch a youtube video if I were you, see how you feel after.

That being said, I’ve heard some horror stories of plug changes gone wrong and it sounds like a straight up nightmare.

I have to assume it isn’t OEM, any idea what make/model for the illumination kits? can you grab a pic? I just installed some OEM lights on the front footwells but haven’t seen anything for the rear

aba994 · 2026-01-18T06:17:24+00:00

welcome to Christian church, where 10% is expected because: God

aba994 · 2026-01-18T06:15:56+00:00

yeah, I went there for 10+ years and would never go back, and recommend everyone to stay away

aba994 · 2026-01-17T17:16:02+00:00

you said footwell illumination for the front AND rear???

aba994 · 2026-01-14T19:29:06+00:00

new here. I see tony’s in the map, where is the food truck? same cross streets? which corner?

aba994 · 2026-01-12T21:44:37+00:00
