I can not thank you enough for this incredible DIY video. I could not have done my project with out it, it gave me the confidence to to dive in and do it. I painted my dash hydro blue to match the body color paint on my gladiator. Wish I could post photos for you to see. And for those tricky screws under the grab handle. I found that the socket that comes with the Jeep and a philips bit worked great. Thanks for the reminder of reconnecting the air bag. I almost forgot. And you are right it is less scary the next time you take it apart. I forgot that one screw on the top dash and had to take it back apart. It was scary reconnecting the auxiliary battery…. I love Mojito, wish they still had it. The Red looks soooo much better with Mojito! Good choice. Thanks again.
Remember folks, if you live in a colder climate be sure you have your interior warm before trying to remove plastic pieces. In the cold they will become more brittle and prone to cracking and breaking. Great video you guys!
Great video. Thanks. To anyone attempting this, I'd recommend removing the grab handle. Simply remove the outward bolt cover with a panel tool, it pulls straight out (the inside bolt is already exposed by removing the climate control).
I love the way you explain each steps and first told people you were not experts but did your research. And you Mrs Lady have a very soothing voice! I own a 2017 JK, I consider switching over to the JL, waiting for the 2019 to come out so I can get a better deal on the 2018, who knows, might even end up with a 2019. One thing for certain, It will have to be Mojito!
I have a Mojito JL myself. You can't drive it anywhere without getting complimented, the color is fantastic. I THINK it is exclusive to the '18 models though. Could be wrong. Seems a shame.
Thanks, I was looking for other information (replacing the light sensor on the dash top), but your video showing the *correct* way to disconnect both batteries was unexpectedly helpful! I was like, WHY is this still going, even though I pulled everything off the negative terminal. What a wacky config.
Great call. I have a Mojito green JL. I'm about to pull those panels and spray them the color of the body. Just bought the paint yesterday. Can't wait.
Thanks so much for an easy-to-follow video. I was nervous about the airbag, but this video helped me understand how to do this. Took me about two hours to replace my dash. Thanks so much!!
Thank you so much for doing this great video. I swapped my red rubicon dash panels for the black "leather" with red stitching panels for the Gladiator last night and it couldn't have gone any easier thanks to the guidance from your video. Start to finish (not including the 30 minute wait time on the battery) it was about an hours worth of work. Like others have mentioned, I think it definitely helped having everything warm -- it was ~80F in East Tennessee yesterday.
@@dirtbikerdann It turned out really nice - love the look of it. Mopar part numbers are 6AC261R3AD-6AC241R3AA and there seems to be a lot of people looking for the red Rubicon panels too. I sold mine the same day they were posted on ebay.
KILLER video guys. You couldn't have done that better. I'm off to pull the dash panels out of my Mojito! JL right now! Can't wait. I'm going to have mine match the body color.
BTW, I've read several comments about the red clashing with the Mojito! (which it certainly does NOT). I've always told people, that's why they make thousands of different colors, everybody has their own taste. You have a BEAUTIFUL Rubicon, your dash should be satin red and it looks perfect. I have a Mojito Sport S. It's tricked out, but the red would be wrong in it as would putting a Rubi decal on the hood. Well, off I go. Wish me luck and thanks again for the video! @@shockerracing
Appreciate the video. I have JL Red rubicon in exterior color and with the tan leather interior; you could not order wi the red dash. Black leather: red dash!! YES. Just ordered the red dash and will do the change out like you and your wife. Good job and thank you
Thank you for the video. I have been battling a dead mouse smell in my JT. Your video helped me to learn how to remove the dash screen which revealed a sizable mouse nest and three deceased mice.
Thanks for the excellent video...gave me the nerve to tackle changing mine out! Swapped the stock red dash on mine for a color-matched Ocean Blue dash. Following along with the video made it easy!
Thank you for this video. I am about to actually take off my 2023 red rubicon dash off & replace with a color matched Sarge Green dash with Bronze or Gold trim. It's gonna look epic!!
The red is what it needed and those are self adjusting pliers not vise grips 😂 I would use a micro 1/4 ratchet with a #2 Phillips bit to avoid any damage to the dash in the future. Love the Jeep and mods thus far guys! 💚
Jay Smith lol, I always enjoy laughing at my mistakes when I watch back through the vids to edit! It’s kind of like a game waiting for people to call me out on them 😂 but I definitely needed a better tool for the job.
Thank you for this DIY Video. Super helpful. I know I'm 4 years late for this comment but. I like the red. I have red on my 2018 JL Rubicon. I'm changing out my Grey for Bronze on my 2023 392.
Thanks for the video, I just swapped out the red dash on my Hydro Blue Rubicon XR. I went with the dark gray metallic dash like on the Rubicon 392. The red dash is not my style, and I didn't think it went well with the blue (looked like Superman). The darker dash leaves the only red accents being the red stitching, looks more subtle and a lot better. This video was very helpful and gave me a heads up on what to expect with the clips. I opted to not remove the 8.4 screen, as the radio unit didn't cover any of the trim screws that were necessary for removal. I also had to use a lot of force to remove the top dash trim near the center driver side, thanks for letting me know!
Appreciate the video. The T-Rex is awesome. I also agree the red should have come standard. I have the mojito as well. I named mine the Grinch and have a vinyl grinch face on the hood. Have been slowly adding to make it my own. Your videos are good inspirations for ideas. Thank you!
ShadyKracka 23 glad you’re enjoying the videos! It’s so fun making them our own, and we are glad to help out our fellow Jeepers with these how to vids!
Nice job, great video. Instructions are very clear. Personalizing your jeep to fit your tastes are what it's all about. Me? I'd have taken the red panels to a body shop and had them sprayed Mojito green. Love that color!
I just got my red dashboard today .will install it later .. I appreciate your great videos and explaining ,step by step .. it's really helpful .. thx again ..
@@shockerracing I have a hellayella jlur . I ordered red dashboard , but when it came a dark gray color so upset .almost cancelled it . But i can't skip my hellayella so inlove it . My wife and my mom love mojito . But it my jeep 😁 . Now I need change it to red dashboard 😎.. you guys really did great job on the video thx ..
good job on the video. It's always nice to watch a video like that instead of taking a dash apart blind. There's no worse feeling than pulling on panels and not knowing for sure if you got all the bolts undone. A flex head ratchet 1/4" drive would have worked for the bolts behind the grab handle. I use them all the time and have them in all the sizes, good to have in your tool box. I'm glad my dash on my JL came in red so I don't have to do that lol
That looks awesome! Great job w the vid. Those pesky clip-tabs are tricky but w ur help on their locations are key to avoiding the hunt-peck method which is always gut wrenching when you crack something inadvertently. Props again to ur vid and the new look :)
Nice video, well done and well explained. As far as the red dash goes we don’t like it on our Rubicon and we’re going to try to find someone to swap a black one with us.
Fantastic video. I wasn't a fan of putting the red dash in the Mojito at first, but it looked really good when done. My wife has the Mojito jeep. Debating getting her dash either painted or wrapped in the Mojito
Thanks for the video guys. I’ve been painting accents on my daughters JLU, and I wanted to paint the dash panels t match. The video helped, and after taking the dash apart, it’s really not that bad at all. Basic hand tools needed. I wish I could share pictures so you could see the final result. It looks amaze-balls! Oh, and btw...if you wanted to paint the dash panels the body color, and retain the matte finish of factory panels, just matte clear them. Chicago area here as well...(Plainfield area)
P.S. 10mm bolts hold the grab handle on. A lot easier removing these 2 screws above the glove box with the handle removed. I taped off the handle, cut it the letters, and painted the ‘WRANGLER’ the accent color as well...
TBH i hate the red dash, especially when it doesn't match the exterior or anything in the interior. So when I'm looking for a jeep I'll make sure that it doesn't have it. This is more work than I'm looking for plus the likelihood of tearing something up. Your video was educational to teach me what I don't want. Thanks 😂
Albert Attias - We’ll I encourage you to do it. There are a lot of steps, but I’d say the most complicated part was the airbag, trying not to lose the clips, and trying to find the clips we lost...
Awesome video you too. You both look like you’re really enjoying what you’re doing and I can appreciate that. I just used your video to do a complete flush and hidden wire install on a Midland radio. All cords are hidden within the dash now and it is very clean. Great idea about the lightning cable for the iPhone as well. -Will from Arizona
Personally, I prefer the gray dash, which I have on mine. But, if you're going with red accents on the Mojito, it will look cool! Thanks for the video, guys!
Project Napalm JL the red dash isn’t for everyone, that’s probably why Jeep decided against putting it in the Mojito Jeeps. But we really like it. Can’t wait to see it with the tops off and the light shining in.
The red does look pretty good, but I personally like the grey with my Mojito body color. Nice job with the video though, it gives others a good idea for what needs to be done if work needs to be done on the dash area.
All Cars United - So do we! That was a major selling point when ordering our JL and since the red dash is signature to the Rubicon JL I wanted the red dash even more... I feel it gives the Rubicon a unique look. Plus that red is incredible!
@@kimberlyanderson2141 makes the dash pop complementing the already vibrant color of the jeep! In a side note, where's my shocker racing bottom for my shockerracing calendar cover pic Kim???
Looks good. Another tip may be to use a ratcheting wrench with the socket to get behind the grab handle. There's a Durango brake install video where the tech uses this technique due to limited space for a ratchet.
Thank you for sharing how to take the dash apart. I like the red with the green you have on the Jeep. I will use your suggestions with my 67 system to run wires behind the dash.
Thank you for this awesome video. Funny thing is I watched it to change the Rubicon Red panels out, to those grey panels - you just removed. The Red does not look good in the Tuscadero.
Nice video. I think the red dash with the Mojito is perfect! About to put the proper Overland dash panels in my JT Overland (came originally with cloth interior), and your walk through will be helpful. Want to swing over to Elmhurst and help. LOL! :D
I wish you could get the dash panel in Mojito! Or which ever color you prefer. I’m considering getting one and having it painted....no such thing as too much Mojito!....love my Mojito! JLUR
Great instruction... will definitely be watching this in the future again... will help when we wrap the wife’s dash... but I am confused...y is ur dash grey to start????
The Mojito, Punk’n, and Hella Yellow got the gray dash instead of the red. We were told ours would come red but were sad when we picked it up and it didn’t have it.
Channel locks. Not vise grips. And a 90 degree philips? How about put a ratchet on the socket? Lol. Good job though. Video helped alot. Got a big thumbs up from me!
This was the best video I came across. I’m trying to just replace my a/c vent bezels. I have the gray oem ones on my Jeep Gladiator and wanting to put 4 orange bezels from a Mojave. Any tips would be appreciated
If I remember correctly you just follow these steps to remove the dash panels and you will be able to pop the vents out from the back side of the panels.
This was a super awesome video! You guys make a great team and are very patient. And super informative. How hard was it to find all the clips? And you should paint the grey ones to match the JEEP body color then put them back in
i got same jeep , took my panels and had them painted same color as the green , ithink it looks much better that way , but each to their own. great video tho
Nice informative video , I haven’t seen one taking the dash apart to swap the panels out yet . I’m also curious where you picked up the red panels from and how much you paid for them . We make most off the IP “ instrument panel “ parts at my work and then ship them down to Toledo for final assembly before they go to the Jeep plant. But you wouldn’t believe the scrap bins full of all the different color and wrapped option panels I’ve seen. Also It does make it nice like when I get my JL one of the glove box hinge tabs was busted and the dealership said it would take a week to get a replacement I told them not to worry about it and went over to to the IR welder that welds the two half’s together and made my own when the line was on break ... perks of being in maintenance I guess 👍🏻 but I like the red but I agree with some off the other comments that a semi-flat mojito panel would look bad ass !!!
Jason Meier - A Mojito dash would definitely look bad ass! No doubt. But I wanted more contrast. It’s incredible how the red stitching and detailing pops out now that the red dash is in. James and I got the part wholesale through his family dealership.
Great job on the video you Guy's! Super Helpful!!! I couldn't find one of the blue plastic dash clips on the end of the leather dash pad. Do you happen to have a mopar part no. for those clips?
My Punk'n Orange Rubi, the red dash would look awful so I'm glad they put the Grey Dash. Same with Nacho or Yellow. I'm repainting my dash to be Punk'n :)
Do you guys have any videos on how to replace the dome light switch? (The little knobs to the left of the steering wheel) I was hoping to see how to pull that off on this video but it seems like you did everything but that one. The front of mine snapped off so I got a replacement from eBay but I have no clue how to go about getting the current one out.

ap1986 lol, there are plenty of people that will buy it from you!
I'd trade my grey one for the red
I’m from Arizona I’ll trade you
I can trade you my black leather one for it?
Remember folks, if you live in a colder climate be sure you have your interior warm before trying to remove plastic pieces. In the cold they will become more brittle and prone to cracking and breaking. Great video you guys!

Always glad to help!
Looks good. Another tip may be to use a ratcheting wrench with the socket to get behind the grab handle. There's a Durango brake install video where the tech uses this technique due to limited space for a ratchet.
Gav Details thanks man!
Gav Details - Thanks for the tip!!!
Thank you for sharing how to take the dash apart. I like the red with the green you have on the Jeep. I will use your suggestions with my 67 system to run wires behind the dash.
Thank you for this awesome video. Funny thing is I watched it to change the Rubicon Red panels out, to those grey panels - you just removed. The Red does not look good in the Tuscadero.
Oh, I’m surprised they would put the red dash in Tuscadero. I would definitely change that as well.
Nice video. I think the red dash with the Mojito is perfect! About to put the proper Overland dash panels in my JT Overland (came originally with cloth interior), and your walk through will be helpful. Want to swing over to Elmhurst and help. LOL! :D
Kellie Anton 😜👍 glad we could help! Let us know if you have any questions!
Grest video. Easy to follow and super detailed.
Glad we could help!
I wish you could get the dash panel in Mojito! Or which ever color you prefer. I’m considering getting one and having it painted....no such thing as too much Mojito!....love my Mojito! JLUR
Yeah, we considered painting our Mojito but we really like the satin finish on the red.
Jeep should have made the dash colors an option.
Agreed Satin Mojito! would be sweet and probably a one off until everyone saw it then it would be the craze...love the T-Rex
rambokd yeah that would be cool! And thanks, we made the T-Rex!
Great instruction... will definitely be watching this in the future again... will help when we wrap the wife’s dash... but I am confused...y is ur dash grey to start????
The Mojito, Punk’n, and Hella Yellow got the gray dash instead of the red. We were told ours would come red but were sad when we picked it up and it didn’t have it.
Really?!!? This is new to me... well glad u finally got what u wanted in...
JL LIFE OFFROAD yeah apparently Jeep must have thought it clashed.
I think you guys did a great job 💯
Thank you!
Thank you!!! Made this so easy.
Glad we could help!
Great video. I dunno if I wanna go thru that pain, yet. Lol.
Channel locks. Not vise grips. And a 90 degree philips? How about put a ratchet on the socket? Lol. Good job though. Video helped alot. Got a big thumbs up from me!
Thank you for the step by step instructions.
Brent Thomas no problem! Glad to help!
Thank you. So helpful.
Awesome video! will definitely help me out in the future. Thanks!
Caden Blazek glad we could help!
This was the best video I came across. I’m trying to just replace my a/c vent bezels. I have the gray oem ones on my Jeep Gladiator and wanting to put 4 orange bezels from a Mojave. Any tips would be appreciated
If I remember correctly you just follow these steps to remove the dash panels and you will be able to pop the vents out from the back side of the panels.
This was a super awesome video! You guys make a great team and are very patient. And super informative. How hard was it to find all the clips?
And you should paint the grey ones to match the JEEP body color then put them back in
Thanks! We have seen people paint them Mojito but we feel like it’s too much green then.
Love the Red good job guys.
Bobby Morgan thanks!
i got same jeep , took my panels and had them painted same color as the green , ithink it looks much better that way , but each to their own. great video tho
I have a Mojito Rubicon JL as well. I love the look of this dash!! Can you list the Mopar part numbers?
Dreadly_Locs thanks! The part numbers are in the video description 👍
Nice informative video , I haven’t seen one taking the dash apart to swap the panels out yet . I’m also curious where you picked up the red panels from and how much you paid for them . We make most off the IP “ instrument panel “ parts at my work and then ship them down to Toledo for final assembly before they go to the Jeep plant. But you wouldn’t believe the scrap bins full of all the different color and wrapped option panels I’ve seen. Also It does make it nice like when I get my JL one of the glove box hinge tabs was busted and the dealership said it would take a week to get a replacement I told them not to worry about it and went over to to the IR welder that welds the two half’s together and made my own when the line was on break ... perks of being in maintenance I guess 👍🏻 but I like the red but I agree with some off the other comments that a semi-flat mojito panel would look bad ass !!!
Jason Meier - A Mojito dash would definitely look bad ass! No doubt. But I wanted more contrast. It’s incredible how the red stitching and detailing pops out now that the red dash is in. James and I got the part wholesale through his family dealership.
Well done! You guys make a great team!
Thank you!
Great job on the video you Guy's! Super Helpful!!! I couldn't find one of the blue plastic dash clips on the end of the leather dash pad. Do you happen to have a mopar part no. for those clips?
mtrctylarry I have the link in the video description to the clips.
Awesome work!!
Point Break Sliders - Thanks so much!
Great video, well done! Made it look easy.
operatorjjbiv thank you!
The red is better. I think Jeep should have done the red in all the Rubi’s. I don’t think it clashes with all the red dash accents and red stitching 👍
MACjeeps we obviously agree!
My Punk'n Orange Rubi, the red dash would look awful so I'm glad they put the Grey Dash. Same with Nacho or Yellow. I'm repainting my dash to be Punk'n :)
Brendan that will look great with a Punk’n dash!
Wheeew. Super cool! Congrats
Thanks for the write up…however I was able to do it without removing the radio…any reason for that?
It doesn’t necessarily need to be removed, it’s more so that we didn’t damage the screen during the process.
Can you add a video of removing the center console usb assembly?
I have never removed that but I can definitely take a look and see if I can do a quick video.
@@shockerracing That would be awesome actually!
Looks great, good job
Jimmy Amaya thank you!
Jimmy Amaya - Thanks!
when your garage is so big, it has a christmas tree. :p Great video as always guys, You are a huge help
Lol, thanks! Always glad to help!
great thorough video. well done.
Thanks!
Nice video, but did you guys forget to reconnect the airbag? Didn't see it being reconnected at the end.
Lol, good catch! I didn’t realize I missed it until I was editing the video!
@@shockerracing glad you guys got to it, not a good thing to omit to reconnect! 😊 Have a happy Thanksgiving!
@@salttrader4113 thank you, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your fam!
I would have done this too. I like the red much better.
MS 3104 we are loving it!
MS 3104 - Awesome!!!
Used my fingers to pop the AC panel off no tools needed for me on that end I was worried it would be harder amd didn't want scratches on panel
Did you replugged the yellow plug for the airbag again?
Miguel Mena-Torres yes, I forgot to record it. That’s why I put a note on the video about it. 😉
Oh ok it was just FYI
Miguel Mena-Torres always good to make sure! I appreciate it and thank for paying attention!
Do you guys have any videos on how to replace the dome light switch? (The little knobs to the left of the steering wheel) I was hoping to see how to pull that off on this video but it seems like you did everything but that one. The front of mine snapped off so I got a replacement from eBay but I have no clue how to go about getting the current one out.
Nice. I love the red!
You guys talked me out of it. 😂 🤣
Jim D lol!
Can i install it on my sport with the small screen ??
Abdullah Andejani yeah, I don’t believe the screen size matters.
@@shockerracing Thank you
🇮🇹rosso è molto più bello, complimenti per questo video, grazie di averlo condiviso 🦈
🇬🇧 red is much nicer, congratulations for this video, thanks for sharing it 🦈
🇮🇹🦈🇮🇹
i also have a mojito jl but i just dont think green and red go together.
Christmas colours. I think they do but its all personal taste :) I think matching with Mojito would look better but still looks good
Lol there whole thing is green and red. Are you new here?
Now i know how to steal jeep radios,thanks i was looking for a new job but now i dont need one lol
jim bob - 🤣🤣🤣
A Mojito color match would be awesome
Plant-Based MD some people have done the Mojito Dash but we thought it was too much green.
Thats true, plus the red accents you are using with the Mojito color looks awesome.. @@shockerracing
I would like my red one out. Do you do any installs for the public? How much would you charge?
Hey anyway to remove the vents ? With out all this dropped something in my vent
