This is a simple way to mount cameras. It is easily done and allows for the cameras to be securely placed, yet movable.
Here are the cameras I am using: http://amzn.to/2wU6U3j
For the magnets, I thought I got them from Amazon, but I guess I didn't. Here are the exact ones I have from Ace Hardware: http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3633664
The specifications aren't critical. I just liked the 3/4" size. Anthing will work. Get Neodymium tho.

Seicane Files (Manual and Navigation Maps)
1. This is a manual that I found that is from a different reseller, but the same unit. This is for the Android 7.1 version, but the options are pretty much the same with different versions of Android. Click here for the manual.
2. When I contacted Seicane about the navigation maps, they gave me this. This appears to be an entire iGO installation and APK file (probably cracked). It contains the maps for North America that should have been pre-installed in the head unit before it shipped. If you need maps, you might try this. I personally don't use iGO, as I prefer the lighter weight of Google Maps or even Waze... but this should save you an email (or ten) to Seicane support. Click here for the zip file. (This is the link Seicane sent me. Use at your own risk. I have not tested or installed this content. The file is HUUUUGE (3GB). This link goes to a a server not hosted or maintained by OVERCLOCK3D Jeeps.)

Seicane Head Unit Temperature Test - Is it Getting Too Hot?
Watch the video and see for yourself. That was after about a 45 minute commute with Radio and Google Play Music on the entire time... lots of volume, lots of bass... Facebook, Gmail, etc... so what i am saying is it was being used. It was also connected to wifi and bluetooth during that entire period of time.
I don't feel like it's running hot... but curious about others who say that theirs is.

The EASY Way to Remove Broken Upper Rear Shock Bolts from a Wrangler TJ Project 2004 Jeep TJ
I quickly realized that dealing with broken upper rear shock bolts was something that most TJ owners are going to have to deal with. I was glad I was not alone. Internet searches revealed tons of people asking the same question as I: "How to remove broken shock bolts on a TJ"! Sometimes you can't put enough PB Blaster on these things to get them to break free without snapping!
I read all of the tips and advice, watched a bunch of videos... and tried a lot of things. This video, however, demonstrates what I found to be the absolute EASIEST way to get those pesky bolts out with a minimal expense. You don't need a huge air compressor and an air chisel. You don't need a special little palm hammer. With a Dremel and a single punch and hammer, you can knock this out! (Pun intended.)
Most people probably have a Dremel, but you may or may not have the 90 degree adapter. Here's a list of the products I used to make this simple job happen:
Dremel 3000: http://amzn.to/2xFYi09
Dremel 575 Right Angle Attachment: http://amzn.to/2juXDrU
Dremel EZ456 1-1/2-Inch EZ Lock Wheels: http://amzn.to/2x2YbLb
Stanley FMHT75077 FatMax Punch Set: http://amzn.to/2x8SMld
2-Pound Engineer Hammer: HF or http://amzn.to/2x8rkUu
Here's my video on removing the TJ gas tank...again, an easy task with the right approach!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhaKH9cuz6M
Here's the Bostitch Palm Nailer that I tried and found no value in for this project:
BOSTITCH PN50 Mini Impact Nailer: http://amzn.to/2whnYjj
And finally, here's the air hammer and chisel bit set I tried. Again... I found it not necessary for this project: Ingersoll Rand Air Hammer 114GQC: http://amzn.to/2y4xWkj

Playing Music and Movies and Mirror Link with the Seicane 10.1 Inch Android 7.1.2
This video is in response to some questions I was getting about this Seicane head unit, and how it displays streamed music. I decided to extend it a bit, and also spend some time showing how to use the Mirror Link feature with my Android phone. My understanding is that the iPhone mirrors the display, but does not allow you to take control of it like you can with the Android device.

Install 04 - Putting it in - Seicane 10.1" Android 7.1.2 Stereo Head Unit in 2015 Jeep Wrangler
In this video, I am actually installing the new stereo/dash assembly into the Jeep. This seems to be a tricky process. I tried something different, but not sure if it helped or not... but the install did seem to go smoothly.
I mentioned placing the wiring on the top but when I was installing, that was getting int the way because of that little bar that goes across the top of that area. I just had to move it a bit to fit. Be very mindful of all of the wiring back there that may be rubbing on that metal bar when you drive around. It wouldn't be a bad idea to put a protective wire loom over the wires to be safe. I will probably do that myself.

DETAILED Gas Tank Removal and Fuel Line Connectors - Project 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ
I decided to make a high quality (4K Video) and very detailed look at the gas tank removal on my son's 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ. I believe there will be subtle differences year to year, but this should be helpful for any TJ owner looking to drop their tank... either to replace a rear bumper, replace the fuel tank skid plate, change out a fuel pump, or make room to work in the rear of the Jeep.
The actual tank removal isn't that difficult. The space it gives to work back there is well worth the time to remove it, in my opinion.
I also cover in close-up detail how to disconnect the fuel line connectors (which was another thing I was searching for info for). These are simple push connectors, and were very easy once I understood how they worked.

DOH! Another Challenge! OME Lift Kit Install Begins - Rear Shocks Springs Trackbar and Swaybar Lin
CJ and I ran into a little snag today starting the disassembly of his rear suspension in order to install the new OME lift kit parts. It's a pretty common problem, but I was hoping to not have to deal with it. But now... we figure out the broken bolt situation.... and hope to only have it be the one... but I have three more bolts to remove on those rear shocks, so it's possible that more will snap!
