Attractor makes a valid point. I'm learning that many of the 4k tvs have compatibility issues. Toshiba tech support told me that the L9300 software was transferred from an earlier model. I wish I would have wrote down the model of tv Toshiba took the software/firmware from.
The menus for the 65L9300 are not where the manual says. Example: You can not use the L9300 web browser to view Hulu. The tv complains about an outdated Adobe Flash player. I've not found out how to update the Flash player in the L9300. There is a dedicated Hulu link but it's not where the manual says. Reading across the web, Adobe Flash updates seems to be common problem to HDTVs. Some? Panasonic models have the same issue with the Flash player. Hopefully Toshiba keeps the Hulu link updated.
I've read that WiFi may not have the bandwidth for high resolutions?
I did expect the tv to be backwards compatible (mov & avi files). I've learned a little about format converters KooRaRoo is a barebones basic converter (server?) that allows me to stream formats other than MPEG. There may also be a format converter for iPhones. I've much more to learn.
The L9300 picture is stunning on 1080p and Wallyworld has a 90-day return policy. (my opinion)
With Mitsubishi out of the game stores like Fry's has a lot of space to put other sets. Don't know the politics of stores but seems like they could pick up other brands to fill in the space.
There is a point about video playback. I went through the L9300U manual and saw that no 4k video is supported. The only 4k content can be displayed from the HDMI port at 4k resolution and 28 or 30 Hz (HDMI 1.4).
I believe all 4k tvs today have the same issue (I looked at Sony's manual also). That is no 4k video playback. This is to be expected as there is no content.
I would buy this tv immediately if there was a firmware update to support 1) HDMI 2.0 and 2) 4K video playback.
Toshiba had promised HDMI 2.0 by the end if the year via firmware, so you may have (1) soon. As for (2), who knows if they will add that, and true, most 4k sets have that issue and I think it is very lame too (not the avi or mov from a phone, that's too specific and who cares, but no 4k even for a still photo to me is pathetic). However not all 4k sets have this issue, the LG and Panasonic can do 4k via USB/YouTube just fine, and the Sammy can only via a hack so it doesn't count.
Btw here is a short freeware video which I transcoded to H.264 4K resolution. I wonder if the L9300 Tv can play it and with what resolution.
A lot of people really want that HDMI 2.0 update badly but for what? It's currently completely useless since there are no HDMI 2.0 devices. I'd be happy with a promise of it via firmware like Sony and Toshiba made since you know that you will get it when you need it...come CES I'm sure there will be many devices announced so then it becomes an issue. The other manufacturers should also be clear about their plans to support it (what will it cost for the upgrade, if at all, what will it support exactly when it comes). Those will help make an informed purchase decision right now, but I certainly don't need HDMI 2.0 right now, and neither does anyone else.
I would want it just to be up do date and prepared. You never know what is going to be announced at CES and many are speculating on the arrival of a 4k disc player either next year or the year after. If something is announced at CES, anyone with a current 4k set will want to be 2.0 ready.
Definitely a big improvement (understatement). The picture is outstanding and the 3D looks great.
Does anyone happen to have a calibration guide for this TV?
Is this active or passive 3D?
Can you download and see if it can play the video I posted earlier? It is in 4K resolution H.264 codec. Here it is : https://www.dropbox.com/s/3qm1d4olj2qrc3d/1_Sunrise.mp4

It brings up a "file not supported" when I try and play that file.
1. Great 3D. I did not know what I was missing.
2. I am much more aware of how black the black levels are now in movies/games.
3. Great plug and play ability for video files (.mkv, etc.). Some files need the DTS audio converted to AAC to work, though.
4. I really like the CloudTV approach and look. The included keyboard and HTML5 browser are actually quite nice.
5. Lots of settings for picture mode/quality (I am still figuring it all out).
6. Obviously the native 4k is ridiculous. Overall picture quality is very nice when viewing the right source. PS4 looks fantastic.
1. Overall software is a bit "clunky".
2. Inability to play 4k video files via USB.
3. Slow transition between video input settings
4. Slow response via remote/keyboard and TV (same goes for included YouTube/Netflix apps)
However, I think most of the cons could be fixed with a software/firmware update. This TV has specs that sound faster than this TV performs. Toshiba did promise HDMI 2.0 at the end of this year, hopefully this will all be fixed soon (wishful thinking?)
Overall, I would say the TV is very solid (58"). I like the construction and look of the set, and the screen itself is only slightly glare-prone. Picture quality is really nice when viewing the right source. I do not use the TV's audio as I have an external 5.1 setup. I give it an 8.5/10 as it stands right now.
In the meantime, yes a laptop or PC/Mac via HDMI is the only way to see native 4k content on this and almost every other set on the market (Panasonic and LG having a USB option also, Sony has a proprietary player for renting/buying content).
You: Is the 65l9300u no longer available
Paul: Hello!
You: hello
Paul: Unfortunately, the TV model above is no longer available.
You: Didn't it just come out
Paul: Yes, but all of our stocks for that model was already sold out so our development team decided to discontinue the model.
You: Are you going to replace it with a new 65" 4k model
Paul: We don't have information when and if we will come up with new model.
Having said that, it does not necessarily mean they won't support it anymore. It is not uncommon for manufacturers to release new firmware to older sets that they no longer sell. I think you will see a firmware update for HDMI 2.0 soon (my guess, not based on any more concrete information other than what anyone has already read).
I had heard this TV was discontinued as well before. This is not a surprise, I think come CES all current 4k TVs will be discontinued to make way for the next gen models. Especially considering the Toshiba came out well before most of the other ones, I think it is from last January although it didn't hit the stores I think until around summer.

"no 4k video is supported"
-This is not a factual statement, the display clearly supports two UHD 4k resolutions and two refresh rates.
I have a 58L9300 and is does UHD 4k from my Media PC using an FX-799A-6NF9 video card- plays 4k content from youtube, etc. and displays PC content
The manual section attractor is referencing is legalize to cover Toshiba's butt over the fact that the UHD 4k standard does not "exist" and if the standard changes dramatically they are not liable. Let me repeat this display does do UHD 4K with the proper output source..
Test Devices: Toshiba: 58L9300 U UDH 4K
Toshiba: BDX-6400 Media Box DVD
Sony: SMP-N200 media player
Media PC: FX-799A-6NF9 4k video adapter
WiDi PC: Samsung Series 7 slate
Mobile devices: Nokia N9 and Nokia 808 pureview
Router: BUFFALO AirStation Extreme AC 1750
Reviewer experience level: Uber, nija, jedi, techie geek.
Let me first state, I dislike "smart TV's". Basically a "smart TV" is the mash-up of a display and a computer- but think more android tablet then desktop pc. My dislike comes for the fact that 1) it's a "crippled" computer and 2) the "user interface" for smart TV's – the remote is the worst way to interface with a computer EVER devised! That said the 58L9300u can be reviewed in two ways, as a smart TV, or as a monitor.
Who watches TV via coax anymore? Today very few people actually watch TV as they use to in the '90's – straight from the cable. The vast majority gets content from a set-top box, or DVR so many people will use the 58L9300 as a "plain TV" – display and speakers.
Cord cutters, if you gave up on the cable companies and you just "watch the internet" for all your content, you have been doing this via a dedicated Media PC or a Laptop in this case you are using even less of the 58L9300 features and it's just a "dumb display" and you are most likely routing audio over an AV receiver to external speakers.
The 4k issue… plain and simple. No broadcast content exists- since no stations are delivering it. No streaming content exists since little native UHD format content is licensed for streaming (Netflix has announced future availability). Little or no disc based content exists because no native 4k "dvd" players exist. Frankly the 4k UHD standard is so volatile that all manufactures have long legal disclaimers that 4k "may not work in the future" on their sets. The only place you will find 4k content is the internet and on some proprietary media devices like the Sony FMP-X1 "hockey puck".
That said… The 58L9300 is a fantastic 4k display that CAN –with the right input sources- display stunning 4K UHD content. Now what do I mean by "fantastic"? Fantastic as in, a great quality display panel, with all the right in's and out's, and great hardware. Compared to what? Compared to anything you have in your home today!
So the number one issue for 4k UHD TV buyers is….. Upgradability! Just like your computer and mobile device, manufacturer support for updating the firmware is KEY!! So the question to ask is 1) does my purchase have the hardware oomph so that it can be upgraded and 2) will the manufacture upgrade me or abandon me?
So this isn't a Chinese knock off set, the 58L9300 has class leading features comparable with Sony, Samsung, LG… and I'm not going to focus on the "same-ness" of the products, but I will focus on the pluses.
Major hardware pluses:
These features are important since they are not "upgradable", the hardware is the hardware.
• It's a second generation set so it has more cores, CPU's and GPU's them competing sets. It is also an in house chip set that Toshiba uses so they have complete control over the hardware/firmware.
• 3 extra inches!!!! Size Matters!!! Really makes a big difference over a 55" display.
• Higher native refresh rate 240 hz then many competitors.
• WiDi support- WiDi is an open standard for wireless transmission of computer display signals…if you never tired it, you don't know what you are missing. WiDi allows me to display my Series 7 slates screen simultaneously on the 58L9300 exactly as if the Series 7 was connected to the display via HDMI, but WiDi does this over WiFi – note to WiDi HD with 5.1 audio you need a kick ass router.
• Active Shutter 3D
• Hardware keyboard support – Yes a keyboard and a touchpad!!!
Software Pluses:
• Native DivX Plus HD support.
• Software doubling of refresh rate from 240 to 480 – important for sports and action scenes.
• Audyssey built in.
• Internet based firmware upgradable – and we have seen upgrades from Toshiba.
• HDMI CEC and ARC – the Toshiba CEC version is more open then many, unlike Sony who limits CEC functions to Sony only peripherals
• 4K up-scaling
Okay so what is the real reason to get the 58L9300 now? TWO WORDS 4K up-scaling!! Connect a 58L9300 to an up-scaling DVD player or Media box and I will guarantee you the best "2K" 3D movie experience you have ever had in your life! Take a title like Life of Pi, with the BDX-6400 as the player and the 58L9300 as display the 3D is incredible. "2K" 3D is more impressive than using the same hardware to play a "mastered in 4K" title like Battlefield: Los Angeles- since the "mastered in 4K" is lost when pressing to a BD.
Needs Improvement: Not all is perfect… Now this is very subjective…. My point of view is that any dedicated device will do a better job than a "Smart TV", hence my old Sony SMP-N200 media player is a better DLNA render then the 58L9300, my media PC's browser is better than the 58L9300 browser. So many of the "complaints" you hear about in blog posts is that people compare the "Smart TV" functions to the experience on a dedicated device. That said the open standard functions work as advertised; I can easily access music, photos and video wirelessly on both the Nokia N9 and 808 pureview as well as my wired Buffalo Linkstation Pro. On the Nokia 808 pureview I can connect an HDMI cable directly to the display (Yes, the 808 has an HDMI out) and display the 38 mega pixel pictures on the 58L9300 in 4K UHD.
***Note the internal renderer will only render up to HD, NOT UHD – this is not a display limitation but a renderer function (see section on no 4K standards existing).
***Also Note the web browser is an open source HTML5 browser… no current FLASH support! But if you know where to look you can find content to render, again issues here is not display but the app.
*** Notable omission- NO Amazon instant video app. (I don't care since Sony SMP-N200 has brilliant Amazon app, or use media PC). Since I use the 58L9300 as a "dumb display" I have no need for many of the "Smart TV" functions. But as a whole I think Toshiba could improve on the usability of apps a great deal.
Is it the sexiest UDH set? No… but then again I'm not buying a TV for the thinness of the bezel, or how cool the stand looks, and anyway all my sets are on articulating mounts. The remote is functional- but I never use it due to integration with CEC and AV receiver. I'm also not impressed with the sets sound using the internal speakers, but then again hard for me to judge since I haven't listened to TV without it going through a AV receiver since 1993.
Conclusion: All 4K UHD TV's are in limbo due to content "un-availability". BUT both Sony and Toshiba have said that the current gen TV's will be HDMI 2.0 upgradable via firmware WITHOUT the need to buy an external adapter – In truth HDMI 2.0 will not really impact most content consumption since most content is shot at 24/30fps which the current crop of 4K UHD TV's support, HDMI 2.0 biggest feature is support for 4K 3D.
The Toshiba 58L9300 has some distinct advantages over the competition; one of the biggest is the extra 3 inches in size. Higher refresh rates. It is active shutter 3D. Supports such geek features as WiDi. Also it is a more open platform then the Sony when it comes to CEC interoperability. Yes CES is just around the corner, but for the price you can't go wrong.

Nice to hear a software engineer had problems. As other have said it does have a bit of a learning curve to it.
With so many issues, the thing I found most annoying was the 20-30 min wait time for me and than another 20-30 min after the first tech put me up to level II support. That was just plain wrong.
I went to add one button last night, an "A" on the first screen of my DVR remote so I could delete saved shows from the DVR without having to go to another page (out of 7 pages).
Once saved, it would not upload the saved program to my 880. Had to call tech support (another 20-30 min hold time). I even rebooted before I called them and it still would not upload.
He had me switch to a different USB port and it started working.
Simple issues like this take much of my time. Tells me the software is glitchy.
But I did just order a second one for my living room HT ($176 at 6th Ave off Pricegrabber) and it should be interesting to see what happens after my initial upload with my other components once it is delivered.
I hope Logitech honors their $50 rebate as my units last 4 #'s are different than the ones on the rebate form as others have pointed out or I'm out another $100 for the two units.
Excruciating is an excellent choice of your words for my experience (frustrating works for me too) with the whole setup process.
At least the end result, leaves us with a workable, reasonably priced ($126) unit with macros.
I have not even tried the custom labeling program yet :eek:
I would also agree with your ratings assessment and would give it the same #'s from my experience.

Also, the USB port thing is quite common. For some reason it won't work with the front USB ports of some computers. I have no idea why...I think some motherboards have a different interface between the front and back USB ports which causes issues. The front ports on my computer work fine, so I guess I'm lucky!

I know it can do what I originally bought it for but for $179 I was fed up with having to invest all that time to make right which should have been right after I downloaded the component codes.
I'm going to give it one more try as you and others have suggested before it goes to Ebay as soon as the replacement unit arrives.
I'll report back on my success or crush it under my boot!
I still say I should not have to as you say "persevere" but I'll try once more :)

It seems like it is not charging at all.

Now, it took a lot longer to tweak everything to be just how I want it, but most people would have been happy enough after the initial setup.
BTW, the Help button is not designed to and does not make any permanent adjustments to your remotes programming. As you discovered, you have to do that through the web software.
I think a large part of your frustration is due to an unwillingness or inability to use some of the advanced features of the programming software. Instead, you rely very heavily on tech support to hold your hand. There is nothing wrong with that, and that is to be expected for a large portion of the users so Harmony should definitely handle that better. However, there are also a lot of other users who are willing to learn the ins and outs of the remote and software and handle things themselves. I believe this probably saves time and frustration in the long run, but it is not for everybody.

It certainly would be misleading to imply that everybody will have theirs set up within 20 minutes, and I guess that's what started this thread.
As I look at the comments here, the question I have to ask is: Is there a remote that we would rather have, one that can do everything and can be set up for everyone more easily? For me, the answer is no. Through the years I've bought so many remotes in search of 'THE ONE' that would allow me to get rid of the clutter on my coffee table. None of them could do that until I got my 659 (now operating my downstairs equipment). On my coffee table I now have my 880. That's it. My wife can operate it. My kids can use it.
Expidia, I gather that you like what your 880 can do as well - otherwise you wouldn't have gotten two. You had problems setting yours up, and you had problems with tech support. Fair enough. Have some of us been 'lucky' enough to have our setups go smoothly, or have you (and I'm sure others) been 'unlucky' enough to have problems (twice!)? I guess it depends on how the setup went :)

Assessment of Speech Dialog Systems using Multi-Modal Cognitive Load Analysis and Driving Performance Metrics
Kleinschmidt, Tristan, Boyraz, Pinar, Boril, Hynek, Sridharan, Sridha, & Hansen, John H. L. (2009) Assessment of Speech Dialog Systems using Multi-Modal Cognitive Load Analysis and Driving Performance Metrics. In Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety, Pride Hotel, Pune, India, pp. 167-172.
Conference Paper
(PDF 182kB)
Accepted Version.
In this paper, cognitive load analysis via acoustic- and CAN-Bus-based driver performance metrics is employed to assess two different commercial speech dialog systems (SDS) during in-vehicle use. Several metrics are proposed to measure increases in stress, distraction and cognitive load and we compare these measures with statistical analysis of the speech recognition component of each SDS. It is found that care must be taken when designing an SDS as it may increase cognitive load which can be observed through increased speech response delay (SRD), changes in speech production due to negative emotion towards the SDS, and decreased driving performance on lateral control tasks. From this study, guidelines are presented for designing systems which are to be used in vehicular environments.

Regrettably, accidents do happen. It may not be your fault but, one day, your vehicle may be in need of some professional repair. At this point you will be faced with an important decision. Who will repair your vehicle back to its original condition?.

There are many SMART repairs but the most common of them are:
Should you have a minor brush at the supermarket, using SMART technology will allow you to keep your car in pristine condition at an affordable price.
Alloy wheel refurbishing is only suitable for wheels that have scuffed/lightly damaged. In most cases alloys wheels can be refurbished but on the odd occasion that a wheel has been seriously damaged we will advise you to replace the wheel for safety reasons. There are many types of alloy wheel refurbishment but the three main types are listed below.
Front Face Cosmetic Repair
Here the tyre (if fitted) is removed so as to gain complete access to the wheel rim to repair any kerb damage and or corrosion. The wheel face is then repaired and flatted down to a suitable standard for priming. This primer is then flatted back and a base coat colour applied.
Finally a clear lacquer is applied to seal and finish the wheel. The wheel is then oven cured for maximum durability and protection. The tyre (if fitted) is then refitted, re-inflated and rebalanced ready for use.
Complete Refurbishment
This process involves the removal of the tyre, valve and wheel weights. The wheel is then cleaned ready for the next level of preparation. Next the wheel goes into our shot blasting cabinet to remove any corrosion and pitting in the surface. At this point, should the wheel need minor repairs these will be carried out and flatted down ready for priming. This primer is then flatted back and a base coat colour applied. Finally a clear lacquer is applied to seal and finish the wheel. The wheel is then oven cured for maximum durability and protection. The tyre is then refitted, re-inflated and rebalanced ready for use.
Colour Coding wheels to body colour
This process is becoming increasingly popular. Color-coding is the process that matches the alloy wheels to the vehicle paintwork. Using our advanced paint system we are able to offer unique color-coding options. We can also arrange to arrange bespoke colours for your wheels should you require. Please ask for further details.
We are very proud to hold manufacturers approval for the following Car Companies.

Thank you, actually the mmap uses my memory. But is there a way to limit the memory usage of mmap? Because the memory usage of Cassandra goes incredible high (~7Gb on a 8Gb machine).
you're just seeing address space used by mmap, not actually
allocated-by-the-jvm memory.

Fisher Vineyards Coach Insignia Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California
Winemaker's Notes
The Coach Insignia honors our family's tradition of craftsmanship, first represented in fine automobiles of the 20th century with Body by Fisher and now in Fisher Vineyards' wines of the 21st century. The Coach Insignia Cabernet represents the pinnacle of our winemaking craft, comprised of the finest selected lots of Bordeaux varietals from our Napa Valley Estate.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Deep ruby. Highly fragrant aromas of red and blackcurrant, dried cherry, anise and herbs, with sexy oak spice and floral qualities adding complexity. Sappy and expansive in the mouth, offering sweet cherry and dark berry flavors. Turns spicier with air and finishes quite long, with fine-grained tannins and a late note of black cardamom. "
The Wine Advocate - "The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Coach Insignia is a gorgeous, refined wine laced with expressive red fruit, flowers, mint and licorice. The elegant, feminine side of Cabernet comes through, along with a hint of mocha and spice from the presence of 8% Cabernet Franc in the blend. Hints of sweet herbs and licorice reappear on the finish. Today the 2008 looks to be a fairly early-maturing wine, but I don't think that will be much of an issue based on how delicious it is."
Fisher Vineyards
Founded in 1973 by Fred and Juelle Fisher, the winery is nestled at the 1500-foot elevation on the western face of the Mayacamas Mountains between the Napa and Sonoma Valleys and home to their Wedding Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and Whitney's Vineyard Chardonnay. Their Coach Insignia Cabernet, Lamb Vineyard Cabernet and RCF Vineyard Merlot come from their estate on the Silverado Trail in the Napa Valley. It is from these two sites that the winery strives to fulfill their mission of producing world class Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. View all Fisher Vineyards Wines
About Napa ValleyView a map of Napa Valley wineries
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable FactsWithin the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just granted an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country unto itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Lech Walesa's wife shakes Poland with frank biography
WARSAW (Reuters) - The wife of Nobel prize-winning Polish Solidarity leader Lech Walesa describes the loneliness and domestic grind she faced as her husband rose to power in a frank biography that is causing a stir in the country even before its official release.
Danuta Walesa, now 62, was Poland's first lady from 1990 to 1995 when Lech Walesa served as the country's first democratically elected president. He won international acclaim when his Solidarity trade union movement led the fight to topple communism in Poland in 1989.
But behind the scenes, Danuta faced a daily struggle to bring up their eight children, according to excerpts from her first biography "Dreams and Secrets" obtained by Reuters on Tuesday and due out on Wednesday.
"We had crowds of labor union members, advisers, politicians, journalists and lunatics pouring into our apartment from dawn until late at night," she writes. "Complete chaos instead of a normal home."
Danuta says that during Solidarity's hey-day their apartment was constantly under repair, that even when pregnant she was left to care for their children, do the cleaning and cook for everyone, including the constant stream of visitors.
"I was a mother, a teacher, a cook, a cleaning lady, a nurse, I had no time to do anything else," she said.
In the book she said she found it harder and harder until she finally broke.
"My initial powerlessness turned into a rebellion. This opposition grew in me until I exploded. Psychologically, I simply could not take this burden anymore," the 550-page book reads.
Danuta Walesa was born to a deeply Catholic family in a small village in eastern Poland and later moved to the coastal city of Gdansk, the cradle of the Solidarity movement, where she worked in a florist shop and met her future husband. Continued...

Question for scott in a 06
I know you did the conversion to the SRT front bumper, and I have a question. What would be involved in swapping to an Overland front bumper on my SRT? I looked at the factory parts lists, and it looks like the fascia, air dam and chrome trim are the only differences, besides the added supports for the SRT version. The reason I am asking is I am tossing around the idea of getting an Overland front bumper for the SRT during the winter. I live in the semi rural edge of the Chicagoland urban sprawl, and the SRT fascia makes a great snowplow. I'm thinking if I go with the 20 x 9 rims, 30" tall blizzaks, and the Overland bumper/trim the Jeep would be much happier in the winter. The SRT is my wifes, and is her DD during the winter, so I'd like to make it as winter friendly as possible.
Re: Question for scott in a 06
all you need is the fascia, airdam and chrome trim. You'd have to remove the lower support arms, lower bumper support bracket, brake duct coolers, fender liner extentions...and thats it.
Re: Question for scott in a 06
LOL....and its not scott in a 06...its scottina 06....LOL. My name....plus my wifes name and my jeep is an 06.......LOL
