Speakers, head unit, and switch pod installed.
no wiring tackled.. need to shift focus to that if this is ever getting done.

I think the issue is more like a lack of knowledge about blinker circuits and circuits in general..

Slight change of plans in the dash area...
I have decided to ditch the OEM style gauges in favor of an aftermarket mechanical water and oil pressure gauge.
After removing the Crown gauges all electrical issues seem to go away.. 
Either I had a crossed wire or something was just goofy..  Fewer wires back there and engine vitals will be accurate.  Originality will have to be compromised..

Lights are working!!!
Turn signal functioning properly, brake light and reverse.
Headlight and High Beams looking good... no goofiness anymore since double filament bulb was wired correctly.
I even got the green light in the Sparton and the correct directional arrow to illuminate. :)





Really like these taillight.. They are LED Brake/Turn/Parking/and BACKUP..  Single diode light is in the red diode matrix.
Really lights up the garage at least..



My Land Rover lessons are shining through everywhere on this Jeep..
Riveter was broken out for the aux switch panel.

exhaust all finished up...
parts of it aren't the straightest shot, and its not the largest diameter pipe, 2.25", but its bigger than factory and nice and neat.  Shouldn't be that restrictive :)

The system takes a sharp turn up after the stock Y pipe.



Flowmaster tucked high up out of the way..



View from the side frame rail.




Hugs the rear tank clearing the bump stop mount



Exits the rear flush with the rear cross member.
