Hello C5,

I'm about to tackle the install of these bumper ports on my 2010 RJT. I'm really excited to get started however I was wondering if anybody that has installed them has any tips or tricks for the install. Thank you!

Update!!!!!

I finished the install, everything went great. I just took my time and measured over and over until I felt good enough to start cutting.

So I got started on doing the install. I'm taking my time and I have measured quite a few times. Seems that the ports outline that I will be cutting is symmetrical on both sides which gives me the green light to go ahead and start cutting.

does anybody know which DRL kit would be best? I'm kind of thinking of running the eagle t3. where its three LED pods on the side of each port.

It took a lot of guts for me to make the cuts. Lol. But I just used a dremel with a cut off wheel. And then the dremel sanding bits to fine trim. Once I made the first cut the rest was super easy.
