Removed both. Roof rack has two bolts under each end. And the mirror cover I just popped it out. Also super easy. Just start from the inner corner (closest to the window) and give it a good tug.

I used Auto dip.
I did the prep spray, then black (multiple coats) first few coats were very light with no overlap, then heavier coats with 50% overlap and two final coats with 100% overlap.
And to finish it off I did about 3 coats of their frozen finish which is a matte finish

Wife and I took advantage of the mid-week 4th to make a 2500mi round trip up to South Dakota. Lots of driving but well worth it.

Spent the long 4th weekend in Ouray and hit up Yankee Boy, Corkscrew and various trails I fell into. Awesome time! Ouray is right up there with Moab for me. :)

Made a temporary fishing rod holder for a trip to the beach. Next year I'm making a nicer one based on what I've learned.

I know this looks fancy but these aren't for sale yet. Please hold back the PM's.
This is the rod holder we use for beach trips. It holds 12 nicely. But we usually have 3 to 4 people inside and it's a 14 hour drive lol.

Is there a preferable year to buy for 5th Gens?

Hi, is there a particular year for 5th gens (2014 and afterward) that is better or more reliable than another year? Thanks.
