Very good idea, clean install and properly protected by factory aux circuits that have pass-thru circuits already. I also like how it’s ergonomic and faces you when the glove box is open and becomes an out of site charge station when closed. Tons of benefits this way IMO
At this point by the time I get my rubicon EcoDiesel I'll just have to click on your channel and follow the instructions 😂 thanks for experimenting so us don't have to.
@@Casey250 big delay here in Dominican Republic, most likely were looking at November, the first batch of gladiators got here in June so we're really behind.
Nice Casey- My JLURD is still getting the turbo replaced in Utah. So close to Moab but so far. I will be driving the 720 miles with the rental to pick it up on Oct 23 and bringing it back to Oregon. Ill let you know how all this goes next week. I hope your turbo stays happy and doesn’t crap out like mine did after 6000 miles.
This is amazing. I hope my Gladiator Rubicon (with the auxiliary switches) has the 2 extra wires as well. I have also been looking for a clean and easy way to get power up to the top of my dash to eliminate all the wires. Thanks from a fellow Canadian.
Thanks a lot for sharing - I did not realize the aux switches can be used for wiring inside the jeep. It was not clear how you pulled your wires from the glove box through the dash but I will try to figure it out.
@@Sam1986E as of today, I see no need, but I would like to. I won't order one, but when they start arriving late 2020 or early 2021 maybe ill look into it further.
Hey Casey, another great video. You made this so easy to follow, even those of us who are electrically challenged should be able to add this mod. A question I have is why do you need a tablet in the jeep for navigation. I see you have the 8.4” screen in your jeep.. Why don’t you just use an app like GAIA on the screen in the jeep. Your tablet looks really bulky to have bouncing around on that mount when you are off roading. I AM ADDICTED, KEEP THOSE VIDEOS COMING !
As far as I know gaia is on screen with apple car play and not android yet but its something ive thought about. Id need to do some testing to see how it works, automotive screens usually arent as responsive to touch as tablets either. I wouldn't want wires hanging around so maybe its possible to put a small tablet in the center console... But then itd need GPS and not sure how well it would do in there.
Casey 250 Casey: yup, I think you are right about android. I have it for my apple set up and it works great. Love the map layering available on the screen. Hope you can get it on android real soon.
I have the iOS Gaia app and you do lose some functionality on the 8.4” screen. Example, whatever map layer is up on the phone is on the Jeep screen and has to be changed via the phone.
Once again - very helpful video. keep coming back to it - worked great for me, but now I need to hardwire my Dash camera for the parking mode recording. Very curious - the wire that says Battery - is it Aux battery or the main Battery?
Casey 250, how many wires can you tuck behind the trims? How many did you tuck? Can you link to some automotive grade usb cables that you used and their lengths?
This is awesome! Do you know if you can run the USB extensions down under the dash where the 67 designs bar mount is versus back along the windshield without too much effort?
Why not use one of the AUX switches and change the settings in the uConnect to turn on with key? Guessing you have lots of potential future addons to use them...;)
@@corey.morreale yes all the aux switch buttons can be controlled through the Uconnect settings. You can change the state of always on or only on through ignition. Or remember last state.
@@robertlivingston2919 outstanding. maybe silly but i am super excited about this feature and the anticipation for my 2021 JLUR just increased lmao (just watched a video on programming them)
It is a great feature being able to control those switches in that way, always nice to see engineers thinking outside the box and helping future proof instead of focusing on planned obsolescence.
For one thing that's garbage,still not fast enough for chargeing,Secondly,you can rewire your on board usb through something like your useing in your glove box to give on board usb faster chargeing and third,you have all your devises up on your tray on your dash,run all wires up through there ,that's what I did and looks neet,no wires all over the place.
it's called Tesa Tape - I would wrap some around the 12v socket to keep the plug in place - www.amazon.com/Tesas-Advanced-Harness-51036-Mercedes/dp/B01I2MLN2Q/ref=pd_lpo_60_t_0/143-0546891-5530906
thanks. i knew it had an interesting name. i put a velcro strap around the 12v to hold it in place but im going to grab some of that tape, its super handy looking.
Question the jeep JL and Gladiator only come with 4 Auxiliary Switches can you hook up more them one item to each wire. do you know I have pod lights that have a Amber backlight that I have them on as soon as jeep is running and I just picked up the set of Oracle LED Grill Light Kit I wanted to hook them up to the same wire I have the Pod light backlight don't know if I can?
Based on what you said there, id say you can as long as nothing exceeds the total amps available for the circuit and the wiring gauges are the right size.

What new truck is this?!

Passed Casey 45min ago on the highway, got the Jeep wave, then remembered I had this latest release of his to watch when I got home. 👍
Im always throwin out the Jeep waves! Sometimes even when I am not in my Jeep lol.
omg your killing the plugs - hard to watch - they come off so easy man - gentle gentle closing my eyes until you finish hahaha
At this point by the time I get my rubicon EcoDiesel I'll just have to click on your channel and follow the instructions 😂 thanks for experimenting so us don't have to.
Hope you get it soon.

It should

Its pretty straight forward once you have gone box out
Jan 2022. Thanks brother!!
Great idea! I have a 21' gladiator overland without aux switches. Any ideas how to find power wire behind glovebox?
Does disconnecting the main battery ground also disconnect the aux. battery?
Thank you for putting together this video. Is there a reason why you decided to run the wires around the dash versus inside the dash?
thanks for the link to "the story till now" page. im a gladiator guy. great videos by the way. cheers
Welcome! Shaun definitely puts his Gladiator to use.
Are you going to get the diesel gladiator??

Jim Arnold: good point. THX
Really nice and clean. I MUST do this, Thanks! OIIIIIIIO
Thanks. Its nice to have especially as im charging a bunch if gear when im out.
Great idea my 2 door JL only has 2 usb so nice addition .
Glad I could help
Awesome video man!!
Thanks!!! Super helpful!!!!

Main as far as I know
Great details of some expand-ability I didn’t know about!
Glad it was helpful!
Casey 250, how many wires can you tuck behind the trims? How many did you tuck? Can you link to some automotive grade usb cables that you used and their lengths?
couldn't find the power wires from under my glove box, I will have to look for it again.
awesome video man
This is awesome! Do you know if you can run the USB extensions down under the dash where the 67 designs bar mount is versus back along the windshield without too much effort?
Yes you can. You can remove the stereo very easy. But once the 67 designs bar is on its kind of annoying to do.
Why not use one of the AUX switches and change the settings in the uConnect to turn on with key? Guessing you have lots of potential future addons to use them...;)
is that a thing? they can be controlled via uConnect?
@@corey.morreale yes all the aux switch buttons can be controlled through the Uconnect settings. You can change the state of always on or only on through ignition. Or remember last state.
exactly. i didn't want to use a switch for this since the ignition on wire is perfect for it.

Great video! Thank you!
Great video and ideas! I will be doing this for sure!!
Thanks for the great ideas
I use CarPlay on mine with no problems or issues🤷
That's a nice shirt.
Ya it is!!
Awesome video
Thanks!!
I also want to follow your Gladiator friend. What is the channel?
Gee thanks, now I have another project I need to do....
This one doesn't take long!
