    Anyone tried Als HNR, LizardSkin, any others? Results?

    I had real bad paint issues in the bed area of mine with lots of flaking. I sanded the area down, applied alodine, 2k primer, Lizard Skin Sound Deadener, and then Monstaliner that I had them color match to the 686 CARC. The Lizard Skin was easy to apply and really filled in any imperfections...

    Question: Best batteries to buy for Humvee (yes I did a search before posting this)..

    I have had good luck with the NAPA 6TL battery and it comes with a 30 month warranty. Price is around $175 if you have a coupon or wait for a special. I have seen them a little lower. https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/NBP7256

    Dome Light Cable

    Close, but the one on the light is a 97b with the b being for the bayonet type mounting. The one above is for a regular threaded version. I can't seem to find the bayonet type mounts or much about the "97b" series.

    Dome Light Cable

    I recently purchased a military dome light an now I am looking for the right cable. The dome light is one of the Eltam LED ones from an MRAP. The connector on the light is an Amphenol 97b-3102a-10sl-3p-9. Does anyone know the corresponding female connector or complete cable?

    Locking Door Handles for X doors

    Good news, per Eberhard they do make a version that locks from the inside and outside. Its part # 13-250-SSL/R. Now the bad news, they do not have any in stock and the company they referred me to does not have any either. Waiting to hear back to see when they will have more in stock and a price.

    Locking Door Handles for X doors

    I emailed Eberhard hoping that they are the ones that make the inside locking version for FMP as FMP seems to have a large markup on the regular locking ones.

    Locking Door Handles for X doors

    Other than Federal Military Parts, are there any that lock from the INSIDE? Or is there a way to secure the door from the inside?

    Jerry Can Mount

    Those don't fit the airlift bumper with the Rhino Tire carrier. I was hoping for one that would fit on the driver's side or the airlift bumper, even if it held only 1 can I would be fine. I have a M1025 so with the slantback I don't want it inside and want to find a place outside.

    I would like to see some swing out type that mounts to the airlift bumper.

    Replacement Covers for high back seats?

    If you want green, then the link above to Jatonka has them in green, just not Tan or black. I also emailed weebee about tan or black and have heard nothing.

    Replacement Covers for high back seats?

    Does OD cloth offer colors other than OD like tan or black? I know Jatonka only offer OD green as I contacted them recently wanting a set in tan and was told no.

    Speaker for HMMWV Laptop

    I am also curious on how they power/wire it. Would be nice if they made a plug and play cable to go with their kit or at least post up a how to.

    VIC to Cellphone Adapter and Military Radio Digital Modes Adapter

    Got mine in too. I think for mounting I will Velcro them behind the front mounting plate on the radio tray. Once I get my layout 100% I might use 3M double sided commercial tape.

    HMMWV computer mount

    The docking station can go to 28 volts if I remember correctly. I bought this off of a recommendation of Ryanruck who should be along shortly to give a better explanation. Out the door for the laptop and docking station it was a little under $300 shipped.

    HMMWV Sealant

    I used auto body seam sealer that I got at the paint store. Once painted it matched. Its thick and I used a battery powered caulk gun to get it to flow out nicely.

    HMMWV computer mount

    I have a laptop mounted in mine. It is a General Dynamics Itronix GD8200 that came with a Gamber Johnson docking station and I mounted it on a Gamber Johnson Mongoose mount. Keyboard lights up for night time use and the screen is a touch screen.

    to turbo or not to turbo

    Did you find the GEP 6.5 Turbo in the Houston area? When I was looking for any HMMWV engine I came up empty on finding an engine local or even a shop which is why I got a 6.5 NA GEP coming from Southern Metals and it should be here in a week or two.
