Of all the installation videos for the JL gas cap, this one is the best. You can actually see the clips behind the cap! I was getting so frustrated blindly trying to remove it until I saw this video. Thanks!!! 😊
Thank you so much!! I’ve had my Wrangler for a year and the door for almost as long. I have been so intimidated to try it. I followed along with your video and it was SO EASY!! Thank you!
That’s so awesome! Comments like this are exactly why I make videos like this. Thanks so much! I’m happy you found it useful and got the project done 👍🏻
Looks like a simple install. The stock filler is one of the things I hate about most about my jeep other than the whip antenna. The antenna was the first thing I took care of.
Bought on Amazon, I just did mine today on my islander!!Three clips and with my little hands I did not have to unclip the light connector, I could just let it hang (propped with a towel). It looks great, thank you!
thank you VERY much for this video. It was very very helpful. I have a 2021 Jlu sport and hated the naked fuel cap. I found it very hard to take off the factory fuel filler assembly. I don't have as much strength in my hands as a guy. But after several tries I did get it off and the new one (I got the mopar jeep logo one) went on super easy even as I was just positioning it, it snapped in. I don't know if I could have done it without your video where you show the clips so clearly. And you show taking off the trim piece and the light bolt. I didn't take off the light, BTW, I just set it in the cargo area. Everything seems to be working, light works, door opens and closes, fuel cap seems secure. My fingers are VERY sore but I'm very happy! The only scratches (and blood) are on me!
Lol well at least now you have literally put your blood and sweat in to your Jeep! Thank you for the comment! Im happy you found the video useful and it helped give you the confidence to take the project on yourself 👍🏻
@@KramerJunction I want to put a trailer hitch on my JLU and roof rack rails. Also, someday a roof top light bar. If you can do any of these I'd certainly find them helpful. What I most found useful about your video is that you started at the beginning for a beginner. I was worried I would have to buy a socket wrench and you showed me that I had one for the light bolt. Stupid of me, because I had used it to put a tire cover on the jeep, and used it to get off the camera vanity cover, but again, this kind of detail is what beginners need. Thanks again
Great video. Love the moments of triumph. Just installed mine. I was able to just leave the wire harness attached for my 2021 JL and rest it in the cargo area out of the way. I did detach the Christmas tree though. I used some 303 cleaner on the rubber gasket, as it was a little "sticky" upon arrival, which made it easier to slide on. 10 min job for a nice upgrade.
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it and found it useful. Some of the most gratifying moments in life are hearing that affirming snap when you’re trying to get something in place 😂
great video thanks for doing that! 10 mm works for removing the rear tail light and plastic bicycle tire tools are great for removing trim without damaging the finish.
Great video - took 15 minutes max after watching you video - two things if you don’t have a torx a 10mm socket will remove the twilight bolt. Also I did not have to disconnect the taillight I juts let it hang while taking out the old fuel cap frame. Look so much better now - my door is the one with Jeep on it vs the flag, but otherwise identical
I found putting the tail light assembly back into place was not as simple was put in place and pushing. I ran into resistance because it would not lineup property. It would not snap in the place. Still working on it at this time but who knows.
Hmm, sounds like a quality issue. I installed this one and another for a friend and both went right in place with no issues 🤷♂️ Maybe contact the seller and see if they will stand behind their product?
You absolutely could do it without removing the light. Removing the light to pop the clips on the factory fuel filler neck mount is just a little bit easier on the soft aluminum body panels over just pulling it out so I recommend the extra step. It’s a minute extra worth of work so I don’t mind 🤷♂️
Hmm, I forget what the torx size was, but isn’t the outside part also a nut size? I’m out on the trail right now and don’t have the JLU handy to trouble shoot. Hit me up on IG and we can talk about it 👍🏻
Held on with a plastic screw....wow. If I would have seen these install videos before buying a Jeep, I wouldn't have bought one. It's like a 4 door beer can.
American flag, but made in China. Don’t want it. So far, had many like items installed but the quality is so bad, returned it. One locking door unit had pot metal key mech. That I didn’t like, but worst of all, the plastic locking tabs wouldn’t click to body. They were bad out of the box. No spring tension. I returned everything and bought a proper Mopar unit.

This is the most simple and straightforward video I’ve seen. Thank you!

Well done sir. Made switching mine super easy! Thank you! We have the exact same one as you too!

@@KramerJunction now I want to add a light bar, do you have any videos? This jeep is like gardening... There's always something to do lol.
@@denisearthur5376 YEs I am thinking of a roof light bar too would like a video
just received mine today. I'll install Saturday along with some other amazon goodies.

Great instructions-thanks!
Thank you! I’m glad you found it useful 👍🏻
Great video. Shows how easy it is to install the replacement cover. Thanks for doing this for us!
Thanks for the well done How To! My install was a snap after I watched this.
I liked the Snap-on tools!
Seems like 90% of the time I’m using the cheap stuff in my tool roll while the nice stuff sits in the garage lol but I do love my snap-on ❤️
Thanks man! This really helped me out with my 2021 Wrangler Islander! I appreciate it!
Awesome! I love seeing comments like this! I’m glad I could be of some assistance 👍🏻

I did this too.
great video thanks for doing that!
10 mm works for removing the rear tail light and plastic bicycle tire tools are great for removing trim without damaging the finish.
Thanks I’m glad you like it and definitely good to note that size 👍🏻
This was super easy to install; looks awesome!
Yeahh easy and makes a noticeable difference. I hope the video helped 👍🏻
Thank you!! This made it VERY easy for me to switch out my fuel door!!
just ordered the flag cover. Thanks for the video - hope it goes as easy for me :-)
Nice video; good use of lighting to see what's happening in there.
Thanks, should make my installation quick and easy. Like the detail you showed!
Awesome I’m glad you found it useful. Good luck with your install 👍🏻

so some videos, including from Extremeterrain, is to use a plastic pry tool to pop off the stock gas shell, no removing of light (18-22 yrs) 🧐
I mean, I haven’t tried it, but it should work. I just worry about messing up paint or bending something maybe 🤔🤷♂️
Perfect
Great video thanks!
Thank you and thanks for watching! I’m glad you liked it 👍🏻
Thanks for this good video. 👍

got this for my 2021.. one clip of the 4 didnt "catch" fully and there was a gap. was disappointed.. not sure if i just got a bad one.
Hmm, sounds like a quality issue. I installed this one and another for a friend and both went right in place with no issues 🤷♂️
Maybe contact the seller and see if they will stand behind their product?
Had the same problem. Gonna try to swap out the doors
Just installed mine! It went fine but I don’t think I got one of the clips on the left side. Maybe I wasn’t strong enough for the clips lol
Nice!
I think your rubber gasket was installed backwards.
Why take out the light? It seems this just pops out and the new one pops back in. Am I missing something?
Can't get mine to secure at top
Thanks for video. Why did you remove the light? Seems like an unnecessary step.. Unless I am missed something?
You absolutely could do it without removing the light. Removing the light to pop the clips on the factory fuel filler neck mount is just a little bit easier on the soft aluminum body panels over just pulling it out so I recommend the extra step. It’s a minute extra worth of work so I don’t mind 🤷♂️
i must have done something wrong. I did not remove the taillight?!?!?
Great vid! hey when are you announcing the giveaway winner of the Nemo chair?
Zachary Jarrett I posted a video on thur 👍🏻
Before u guys get pissed because you can't get the plug apart,, I did it by having someone hold the tail light and gave up on the plug
Lol the plug came apart super easy for me. I guess some aren’t as forgiving 😂🤷♂️
I stripped the plastic bolt when I was trying to remove it, any suggestions on how to get it out?
Hmm, I forget what the torx size was, but isn’t the outside part also a nut size? I’m out on the trail right now and don’t have the JLU handy to trouble shoot. Hit me up on IG and we can talk about it 👍🏻
So I was removing my old gas cover and apparently I broke the 2 clips during removal; ideas of where to get so i can finish the install?
How has the fuel door held up? Some online reviews said it would pop off after a short while
It’s been holding up really well. Still solid and good as the day it was installed 👍🏻
What is the rubber in the back of the jeep thanks
Oscr M what do you mean?
Where can I buy this exact one? Thanks
There are links in the video description 👍🏻
I thought you had a JKU? Second Jeep?
I do, this is my brothers JLU. I’m slowly convincing him to buy things so I can install them and hit the JL market also lol
@@KramerJunction sounds good. Never ending hobby now with two jeeps on hand 😄
Haha yeah more opportunities to make content 😉
Held on with a plastic screw....wow. If I would have seen these install videos before buying a Jeep, I wouldn't have bought one. It's like a 4 door beer can.
Nice, vidi0
