Not sure if you completed the work yet or not but there is a grommit that is easy to get to approx 3" in diameter on the fire wall to the left of the brake pedal. I have a 0 guage power wire running through there now. I try to avoid running through steering column. On a side not the in floor cargo area in the back is a perfect place to mount your amp. I have two amps in there now and it perfectly hides everything... cheers

How could you have needed to replace your wipers already? Thats crazy!!! Ive probably only used mine 30 times in 4 months...

I know you can add an aftermarket security system that has outputs for sunroofs/locks/windows and such so that when you arm the alarm the moonroof will close.

just cracked 7300km on mine this week. But thats with overly excessive driving for me, including working 250kms out of town for a month so I drove up and back each weekend, then we just drove to cape cod and back from ontario which is like 800 km each way. Other than that I drive 3 km to work each day lol. Traded in our 04 liberty in May with 42000 km on it :P

Wow! thats gold, been wondering how to do this myself. Dumb question but obviously this doesnt affect the alarm sound if the alarm were to go off right?

Just got back from a trip to Cape Cod from Ontario. AVG'd approx 24mpg with all 5 seats full (4 adults, 1 toddler) and the cargo area so full i couldnt see out the back. This was with cruise set between 65-72 mph. (6 cyl SXT) I have to say the journey performed amazing on the trip. Very comfortable ride for being 8 hrs each way. I have yet to find a speed in which I can get above the 25mpg range though. Just cracked 7300km though so engine isnt broken in yet...

Just an update, its been since monday now. Squeak in rear suspension has not returned nor has the rubbing noise in front driverside wheel. All the tech did was apply some sort of lube and its good... ive put 200 miles on since then so its well driven...

had dealer look at my journey today when i got the 1st service done. Ended up being a relative of mine doing the work so i told him about the squeak in the back and the noise in the front left wheel also. He sprayed some sort of lube on the components in and around there and the noises are gone? i barely heard the front wheel once so far but the squeak in the back suspension hasnt been back yet. I will keep you posted, could be a simple fix

SOOOOO MUCH NICER!!! Its on my to do list also! How much did it cost for the two windows? and where are you from?

the silver trim ring that goes around the radio and hvac controls simply pops in and out. there are no screws holding it in just clips. very easy to pop out and you will be able to get your dvd back

System is approx 1500 watts true power. Sub alone is getting somewhere between 800-1100 watts (not max power, thats continuous)

Yup same problem here, been almost the same amount of time, i first noticed it about 3 weeks ago. I also have a squeak sound coming from my driverside rear wheel when i hit certain bumps

Had my buddy/installer do a little mod to my Journey. Big thanks to Jeff at Bestbuy in Kingston, Ont. Sounds phenomonal!!! Headunit: Kenwood 7120 with Navigation Front Speakers: JBL GTI 6.5" Mids and tweeters Rear Speakers: JBL Power series 6.5" Front/Rear amp: JBL PX300.4 Subwoofer: JBL Power series 12" (Custom vented enclosure) Sub amp: JBL BPX1100.1 Stinger wiring throughout. Headunit: Cargo Area: Cargo Area (stealth): Amps: Amps/Jack:

I have that on my SXT

Dont take this the wrong way but why not just use the keyless entry option on your key fob? When you press unlock it disarms the alarm at the same time? I also think that I read in the manual if you press the lock button inside the doors when you are getting out it doesnt arm the alarm so if you used the key it wouldnt go off getting back in...

Did upgrades on all the speakers and added amps, entire audio system is JBL Power Series Amps, Subs and Speakers. Couldnt handle the sound quality of the stock head unit anymore although I loved the integrated ipod and steering wheel controls. So I ordered a Kenwood dnx-7120... Its double din size for stock fit and has integrated Garmin GPS, touchscreen functionality. Should be much better, I will be adding the steering wheel remote adapter eventually and the deck has rear usb input for ipod control so its all good. Cant wait! Next will be to build the sub enclosure and finish the cargo area install. PS wiring harness is expensive as hell for these beauties also need an antenna adaptor that also works with volkswagens and mounting brackets very expensive venture on my part

yes the footwell lights are on the same dimmer switch as dashlights so not defeatable unless you dont want to see the dash. Engine cover seems to improve the engine noise and doesnt affect the heat at all.

you use it similar to a manual transmission in the sense that you shift gears as RPMs dictate or torque needed. I find its nice when on the highway and you need immediate power and can see it being useful for winter driving up here in the snowy north. I suppose technically it could improve milage but that would take some getting used to in terms of finding the sweet spot. Would also be useful if you were towing something as you can keep to lower gears when necessary.

I had an 04 liberty up until this week. What I loved about the Jeep was that it was fun to drive, sporty and awesome to drive in nasty weather because of the 4wd. So far my impressions of the Journey are spectacular. The ride is soooo much smoother than the jeep and its so much quieter. It is less "peppy" as it seems geared more for smooth riding rather than towing and off roading but it also changes gears much smoother. The only thing I can see missing about the jeep is when winter comes and not having the 4wd but time will tell. this guy has no regrets for the swap!

I liked the extra in floor storage you get by not having the 3rd row and we only have 1 child so we have no need for the extra seating. So not only did we save the money but gained usable storage also.

1st impressions are so awesome. Drives very nice and coming from my 04 Liberty it makes seem even smoother im sure. Got the FWD SXT black. convenience group premium convenience group exterior group tow group 5 seater I love the 19" Wheels, they look very nice from a distance. Here's a couple pics.

Wow thats not good luck at all. What caused the stains? Is it a leak or just normal use? Not good

I went with the 5 seater, not the 7. Wanted the extra space for cargo.

Yup havent had an slow downs on my end.

confirmed it will be mine at 1pm on monday. I will definately post pics in the coming weeks. As of right now there are no accessories available to adapt factory wiring so hopefully that comes soon
