    Great ideas - thanks for sharing; fun video. Agree with you about the floor mats. Like the rear view window option too. I almost clicked off when you threw the antenna into the field - I thought - did he just litter?! and then you saved it quick with the comment, don't litter. Trash on the trails kills me. Your 'don't litter' comment is why I subscribed. Thanks again for great ideas!

    pull the drain plug from the frame and put it in the top of the floor mat.
    Dealers make this mistake too so if you get the mats from them, make sure you fix it before it warps your mats of they wont drain properly or itll push the plugs through the floor. Plugs ar $8 to replace, mats are $120.

    You’re using the floor mats wrong. There’s a plug that is hidden under the factory carpet that goes into the rubber mats. When removed the plugs allow water to drain from the cabin…no need to remove the mats for cleaning. Just bake them down and let them drain.
