PART TWO - Rapto Worx Fire Extinguisher Mount - JK Seat Bracket - Fire Suppression - Jeep Wrangler
Does it rattle? Is it in the way? Can I get to it? These are the questions I answer in this video...
Rapto Worx Billet Fire Extinguisher Mount
http://raptoworx.com/LP/FEM-1/
RaptoWorx looked at various billet and clamp-style fire extinguisher mounts, and found they could build something better. RaptoWorx realized that vibrations, roll-overs and even UV rays can have an adverse effect the various methods people use to secure their fire extinguishers to their vehicles.
So they built a mount with higher-quality components and craftsmanship that make it reliable enough for racing use and with details not found in other mounts on the market.

02 - Alarm and Remote Start Install - Manual Transmission -Neutral Safety Switch -Vehicle Learn Mode
============ CHECK THIS OUT! =========
Get the OVERCLOCK3D AL-1775-3DB PACKAGE FOR 2007+ WRANGLERS over at http://kickyride.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_4&products_id=168
USE DISCOUNT CODE "O3DJEEPS" TO SAVE 10% ON YOUR ORDER! (Discount code value through 12-01-2017.)
=====================================
In this video I tell you about the Excalibur Remote Start capability in the Jeep Wrangler, and why you may or may not need to use that Neutral Safety Switch (NSS) wire, what Vehicle Learn Mode is, and how to actually set up remote start in your Jeep - yeah.. I'll tell you all about Manual Transmission Reservation Mode!
So you want to install an alarm system and remote start into your Jeep Wrangler? Well… this is the page for you! What follows below is the complete video series regarding the selection, overview, installation, setup, and howtos of the Omega Excalibur AL-1775-3DB security system and remote start I installed in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler with automatic transmission. If you happen to have the same vehicle (including similar years) then this page should be a step-by-step guide for you. If you have a manual transmission, there will be some additional steps and wiring for you, and what exactly depends on what year your Jeep is. I tried to mention some of those things throughout the video series. If you have a 2017 or newer, also note that the access to the ignition switch harness is a little different. I’ll also try and help you out there.
Please watch all of the videos BEFORE YOU START your own installation. This is important because I may point out things in later videos that would be helpful to know about early on. It’s just part of the process. Once I get into the install, I know more about what exactly needs to be done, versus what I believe needs to be done. A great example of this is the wiring for the parking lights. In the wiring prep video, I told you that you needed three wires for this because that was the industry standard based on how the Jeeps were wired. However, in actual testing during the install (and working closely with the tech guys at Omega Research and Development) I found that only one wire was really needed. So I modified the harness from the original 9 wires, down to 7!! BONUS!!!

This is a quick video showing how to measure for custom driveshafts, and in my case, Tom Woods driveshafts. Tom Woods gives you an easy guide on their website, but if you have something other than a stock configuration, as I do, your measurements may look a bit different.
