Not sure of brand, I believe they are made in China but shipped from California. I purchased from eBay, here's the link;

Nice! Shooting is fun, and even more fun when you get to drive there with a Renegade. Whereabouts was this in the desert? I used to live in SoCal and often went gold prospecting out in Goler Gulch near Randsburg.

 

@rev44 thanks! This is in Apple valley off the 15.

Oh, okay. I've been up that way a couple times in the past but not too familiar with it. I did prospect once up in Coolgardie, however. I love living in the Sierra mountains but I do sometimes miss the desert.

 

I've had my Renegade for two months now (2016 Granite Sport with all amenities of the Latitude) and ordered these: Amazon.com: Toppower Door Mats Gate Slot Mat Cup Pads Red 16PCS for Jeep Renegade 2016: Automotive
but I can't seem to locate where the rectangular strip on bottom right goes-anyone have any idea? No instructions were sent with the pads but they do fit perfectly.

Nothing to show but hit 30,000 miles on the odometer today. Enjoying the Renegade!

 

What light bar is this?

Installed new OEM splash guards, easy install, look sharp. Next on my wish list, 1" wheel spacers.

A before and after of my Renny DOJ.

LED lighting all around except head lights, those are next. Added cross bars for a roof rack which will be here Friday.

I do however, have a ton of road noise with the bars as well as turbulence. Seems as if the doors alone have a whistle at 73mph and above, adding the support bars is extremely worse at 54 mph the road noise is loud. Looking to get some deflectors along the windows and My Sky to reduce the noise...

Suggestions anyone???

A deflector should help the road noise and turbulence from the bars. I have Yakima round bars with the Yakima deflector and have neither, it is very quiet. If you have Thule bars, they also make a deflector. There also may be other deflectors out there that would fit your bars. REI often has sales on rack products, both Yakima and Thule. That is where I bought my bars and deflector for just above ½ price for the set.

There are also window deflectors available. Mopar makes a stick-on set (available thru dealers and vendors on-line) and WeatherTech makes in-channel deflectors for the Renegade. I will be getting deflectors shortly but not quite sure which ones. I do like the idea of in-channel. They all seem to be around $100.

I do not have MySky however, that could make a difference.

Good luck.
