I always wondered if we could add one of those 1-2 buttons on our KJ for Mirrors and Seat positions on liberty?

And it's worth all the extra cost(may need to be totally custom,$$$$$$) for a few seconds to push the buttons to get it where you want?

Well, depending on how much it costs. It is a safety issue. Sometimes you totally forget that someone just drove your vehicle, and you hit the road. How many of us actually check all the mirrors all the time? So once you get on the road, you just hit 1 and it does it exactly to your sweet spot. That's it.

I would pay $100-$200 for that. It could be as easy as tapping into the electronics, a tiny module that has two numbers on it, and a small calculator size memory that can hold the coordinates or position of the mirror. It should not be too difficult.

I think things like this are a huge waste not a safety issue
I see more people driving at night on the highway with no head lights on
How in the he!! do they know how fast they were going or if their car was running hot or if they had no oil psi?
if the dummy's can not remember to turn on their head lights they what makes you think they will remember to push a button to move the mirror's ,not saying this about you
I just think that new cars should punish dummy's not help them
like if you drive at night for more then 500' or over 5 mph with out turning on the head lights then the car shuts down and does not start until the sun comes up
or if you get in and do not move the mirror the it will not go into gear
or if any part of the engine or trans starts to over heat then the car starts to pull to the right and put on the blinker to move right ,not enough force that you can not steer just enough to make you realize that you have a problem and need to pull over
or if you put on your wipers for more the a minute with out the head lights a VERY LOUD buzzer goes off followed by a loud voice that shouts "TURN ON YOUR HEAD LIGHTS"
those would be some hella safety features right there and the best part is most cars can already do it they just need some slight tweeks in the programing
the cost would be way less then $100 and way safer


sorry rant over
I just see lots of stupid stuff out on the road
I added up my milage I drove for the year and it is close to 50K between work and personal
I see the dummys

Wk has that hyedipin and I love it. Makes quick work of adjusting everything.

Agree about the headlights. If people like that were not on the road it would be a better place.

Believe me, most of those people are DRUNK or they are just so much used to driving another vehicle that has AUTO setting on their vehicles that turns on headlights depending on surrounding lighting. Something which WK also has (right Blake?).

Another one of my pet peeve with sleepies out there, who forget their blinker and keeps driving on the middle lane, blinking left, slowing down traffic because considerate drivers think he will change the lane and slow down. Luckily, KJ's blinker is so loud, that's impossible not to notice it!. :D

the TJ will make a loud beep if you do that
the stalk broke on mine a while back and I drove for close to 100 miles with it beeping at me
thank god for a soft top
put the top down the the beep went away

actually KJ was supposed to make a beep beep beep according to manual, but mine doesn't. I tried that and nothing happened.
