- I installed an overhead molle panel by Molle Platform Solutions on my Jeep JK and it's awesome!
SIDE NOTE: The company is called Molle Platform Solutions and I kept saying Molle Panel Systems and then corrected it to Molle Panel Solutions which is still wrong. I apologize MPS!
Parts I used:
Molle panel: www.molle-plat...
Molle pouch: www.amazon.com...
Quick-release fire extinguisher mount: www.amazon.com...

I have this same panel sitting in my garage for over a year now because I didn't think it was compatible with my switch pod. I guess I need to install it now after seeing how easy it is.
😂
I bought the wrong g one from amazon...it was for the Bronco. With a few modifications.....it fits great. I plastidip it to match my interior. Great video!
I have both front and rear panels for my JK and I love them. I love MPS products, especially since it is a small business and American made. #SupportLocalBusiness
@Blue Savage I both over panels. I’m just under 6 foot and have plenty of room. I have Molle pouches for storage that’s mostly where my son stores his gear.
Just ordered mine! I have several ideas of what I want to do with it. Keep up the great videos!
This will be a great addition to my Jeep
Nice. What a coincidence, I did this exact same install a month ago and love that my dash is so freakin clean and uncluttered now.
Another game changer, since I saw you install that fire extinguisher (how on earth do you not bump your head into it 😃, I'd here to see that huge thing hover over me anyways), look into Element Fire extinguisher. You'll love it.
I have, not one but, two of them tucked away in the panel (One on my side and one on passenger side for my GF) It's small enough and the gap on the top (between the molle panel and freedom panel) is just right for this. I used a bungee ball cord to wrap and secure them. This way you can still use the actual molle (facing bottom) to hook up whatever. Figured I'd share the tip 😉
Oh also I'd suggest buy his (his name's Alan) Rear overhead molle panel as well. I have yet to install it since I'd have to take my RTT and hard top off and been lazy about it. It's sturdy AF and who doesn't love more storage 😃
HAHAHAHAHA. I'm laughing cuz, okay, wait for it...my wife bumped her head and now it must be moved lolol. My next video will actually be for a DIY under seat molly.
@@BaptismOverland 😂 oh well, you tried. I wish I could send you a photo of what I mentioned. I think bulky fire extinguishers should become obsolete by now.
@@supreeth.shanthakumar did you get one of those one shot canisters?

I bought and installed this because of your video, Thank You, I love it. I got it just a hair to the right but it works fine with my switch pod. I should have swung the visors in to center the pod better but it worked!
Awesome! Yeah it was a game changer for me. I store a ton of stuff up there now
Wish I had seen your vid before I fabricated my own molle platform as I like to support the small businesses.
But fabricating your own is awesome too!
That would be a great spot for a bubble tape dispenser.
Well I just found my next mod....
Good job on the install. I ordered it, thanks
Duuuuuude that is on my build list. I am waiting to do all electronics at once in my build.
I have the door stop extenders for opening the doors. Definitely get those! I also have their molle panel for holster mounts on the driver side. Even if you aren’t a gun guy; explore a molle panel down there to store your flashlight, leatherman, pocket knife or whatever. Great gear.
I plan to Mount radio equipment on the overhead panel such as HAM radio and speaker as well as some seatbelt cutters and small pouches.
Yeah he makes awesome stuff
So after 2 years..... What happens when it rains and you're topless and doorless? does the radio and equipment get soaked?
I don't go topless or doorless with this vehicle anymore. Specially since I have an RTT on top and the roof rack is low profile that it's a pain to slide the freedom panels off.
Same concern here with an ApollinTech
It's tight but I got it to work
Man im glad i found your video. I was Afraid I was going to have to modify my Switch panel. I have the same one you have and im glad that it well work with no problems. 👍👍👍👍. Definitely going to subscribe to your channel.
have you found the shelf to rattle over time?
Not at all! It's been super stout. And I have a bunch on it now
Hey AS, I love the fact that you are doing things I'm looking at doing for my Jeep next. I think MPS modified his overhead platform to fit the S-Pod head units because I think that was the only reason I didn't go with it before. I know you mentioned going with the Vector Bar, do it, I love mine with the 67 Design and Ram mount options... You'll find that you might put some of that stuff from the MPS on the Vector Bar... Keep up the great work !! Peace from Canada
I really want that vector bar but 67 is always sold out of their phone holders. I alrdy have theirs from before but I want another for my wife’s side. We will see
I have a similar Apollointech switch panel and have the same concerns you had about trying an overhead molle panel fitting. I wonder if the other guy you referred to was the one I saw that used the nutserts. I'm glad I won't have to. I hate those things. My only hesitation left is the price of the MPS panel ($150) that uses self-tapping screws vs the price of the Tribe panel ($65) that uses nutserts.
P.S. the Vector Bar really is even better than I expected too. You'll love that thing! I went with RAM mounts instead of 67D and couldn't be happier.
Tough choice lol. I didn’t even know about that tribe panel. I hate nutserts too lol. But hey, half the price. Just don’t mess up the holes lolol
@@BaptismOverland I didn't risk it, went with the MPS. Install was just as easy as you said it was. Thanks for the video.
@@GunNut37086 that makes me so happy! You should let them know what video made you decide! Lol
Thanks for adding the link for the quick release extinguisher. Appreciate that. Great vid 🤙🏼 🔘|||||||🔘
You think I can make the install with out removing the roof panels? Since I have the roof rack is quite a project. Thanks in advance
Unfortunately you'll have to remove it because you need to get above it for the bolts on the rear side. It sucks lol
@@BaptismOverland thanks for the info master ✌🏻
@@Bk47overland *bows in Bruce Lee*
Thanks for the video a bit off topic what bottle jack u have?
I have to look. I just grabbed the best selling one from Amazon but I need to get another that will be taller and holds more weight.
Side note, I am not a big fan of the self tapping screws so I am using riv nuts this will ease my mind if I have to take it out and reinstall it.
Me neither. I have a riv nut tool now but didn't then. If I had to redo this over I woulda use riv nuts. So far it has held tho
I don’t see one online for a JL would they fit the same on one?
Doubt it. Have a friend who has a JL and was looking for one but I don't think they make them yet. And the way this mounts, I'm not sure it will fit the diff dimensions. I would contact them and find out.
Dude, just because you got your jab, doesn’t mean you can’t get the Rona. I know many people, including myself that got it even after having the jab.
Great video on the install. I’m looking at putting one in my JT. Looks like something good to organize and keep things easily accessible.
Oh believe me I know
There's so many things we didn't know back then
This covid content didn’t age well😂
Nope. Not taking the bait.
I'm just not a fan of drill. There has to be a solution that doesn't have to drill into the Jeep...and comes with instructions. Dude you ARE the instructions!
Haha I legit just had this convo with my friend last night because he bought the gladiator version. And he told me he cringed drilling into the vehicle
False negative
Probably
I stopped watching as soon as you promoted vaccines
Then you saved us both from each other.
