my headlights adjust from the dash for different heights depending on your load.

Yeah, I thought levelingsystem was a EU thing, that you had to have that installed. Now I'm not sure anymore..

And Jinstall I never heard of a Suzuki Sidekick.....The older one was called Samurai. Or J4 something.

Or do you have to fit the Euro spare tire protector? I WANT THIS PART ACTUALLY I FOUND ONE IN THE US IN THE LOST FOR SALE SECTION .......you're really going to put that on you car????

We have the antenne on the right front fender, sucks.: Yeah I don't understand that, it's called a 'sport' mod or something, I think its stupid since the KJ has the antenna in the rightrear window. Never have to worry about taking the antenna of if you go through a carwash. But by the looks of it they seem to be fitted in the same hole as where we have our indicator lights! So can't you take it of?

The rear window does not have the antenne.

Yes I want the spare tire plate holder.

BTW I got the Cherokee door guards and they are the wrong color of gray, mine a re a darker shade.

Jins: if you check Ebay.de enter Jeep Cherokee KJ / worldwide. At times you run into interesting stuff, there are a bunch of sellers in Germany.

One of them has a crashed Limited he's parting out, didn't see it right now but he shows up every now and then.

So the headlights are not the same as ours?

Found this today 200200428142, 4 coil lift kit for a gas KJ....160€

Getting windows tinted tommorow, but if i still cant get hold of an A bar like my old one i may sell my jeep and get something else ,i've taken it off as its damaged by some pr*ck reversing into me ,and waiting for insurance to repair my bumper but my car doesn't look how i want it too anymore

.I'll give it a couple more weeks and if i cant source one i'm probably gonna let her go.Tony found one similar from a supplier in spain but its not quite what i want.

JIMMY JEEP · **Posted:** Tue Mar 18, 2008 6:41 pm

Windows are tinted ,all rears left fronts clear to avoid unwanted police attention.Went for factory 20%. Now i just need to find an Abar

do u have pic of bullbar u looking for jimmy

JIMMY JEEP · **Posted:** Tue Mar 18, 2008 7:40 pm

Heres a pic keltick ,bar is 3" stainless steel and unlike most i can find has two horizontal bars,top bar has mounts for spotlights, and bottom bar has lugs for registration plate to be fixed,place i got it from says they cant sell them anymore as they are illegal but others are selling them just not the type i want. I'm really not happy with the look of my jeep anymore ive emailed my original supplier loads of times asking if they can put me onto their supplier if the dont want to deal with me direct (for legal reasons)but they wont help.

kelticknight · **Posted:** Tue Mar 18, 2008 8:00 pm

i've seen that type couple of months ago on line with some supplier,will check it out and let you now

JIMMY JEEP · **Posted:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 4:59 am

i would be made up if you could find one the same,Tony found one very similar ,horizontal bars were further apart though.

tonycrd · **Posted:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 7:06 am

Yeah sorry Jimmy, I need to put a sock in it, Promyges is a wholesaler / factory and I need to order the A bar from one of their dealers and there's no way they will do a one of.

And I have never seen one like yours.

(I'm starting to sound like an old record ) got a pic of the damage on the A bar?

jinstall · **Posted:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 5:28 pm

The only thing that keeps me form getting one is the crappy mounting plates. I have yet to see one that would hold up to off road use. They look good though.
