    Trailhawk wheels, backspace

    If you are looking to run aftermarket wheels, make sure you take the width into account. Our stock wheels are relatively narrow, and most aftermarket wheels are 17x8 or 17x9, and without spacers or a big offset you will run into issues hitting the strut.

    Simple Door and Ignition Key instead of switchblade-fob

    This is probably the easiest solution, and what I will most likely do. Toss normal keyring in the Jeep somewhere, and use the cheapie key to get back into and get to the fob.

    Field Tool Kit

    Looks good, ive been thinking about pulling the foam out of mine as well because I get some random squeaks here and there from the tire rubbing against it I believe. Also looks like ill be able to cram some more emergency items in there that way too.

    Thinner spacers

    I don't know that SpiderTrax makes spacers for our Renegades yet, but they would be my preferred source if they do. I would definitely go with a hubcentric spacer that bolts up, instead of the "sandwich style" spacers that may cause issues down the line.

    Field Tool Kit

    OP do you have the TrailHawk? My full size spare takes up most of the "storage compartment" under the rear area, but I have been able to use a tool roll type tool pouch to stuff in there, with some roadside kit stuff in it on the left side. There is another little spot on the right hand side up...

    This F'ing Parking Brake!!!

    As said above, the parking brake can be turned off in the Uconnect settings of the radio. Then it only comes on manually, when you want to set it. That's how mine was set from the factory, and I think its the right call. Ive never had an issue out of mine.

    NEW Daystar Jeep Renegade Rock Sliders & Winch Bumper COMING SOON

    I agree. Since the TrailHawk comes with the full size spare under the rear cargo area it takes up a big chunk of space that could be used to store roadside kit/tools/etc. I originally thought I wanted some sturdy crossbars and a rhino rack, but man that's another big wad of money to shell out.

    Crossbars for 2016 Jeep Renegade with sunroof

    I really like the looks of those crossbars, but remember that Wayalife's rig doesn't have the MySky. I have asked around and am not 100% sure that these Thule bars will clear the powered roof, which is a big deal to me because I use it almost daily. If I can get confirmation on this, these are...

    Renagade pickup?

    Agree, they seem to be dark tinted inside the bezels. I think they would look great on the already darker TrailHawk grills. Id like to get a set if they ever make them available through MOPAR.

    Thule AeroBlade Cross Bars & Rhino-Rack XTray Cargo Basket for Our Jeep Renegade

    Anybody know if this Rhino rack will fit with the powered MySky roof? Im interested, but want to be able to still use the powered roof. I don't take the panels off completely very much at all, but I use the roof almost daily.

    2016 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk Spare Key

    From what ive understood from another forum(I haven't had a chance to look it up in the manual yet), in the event that the battery is too weak in the fob to unlock the doors then you can use the manual key to get into the vehicle. The fob has a small transmitter in the end opposite the manual...

    Renagade pickup?

    Id like to get that factory bumper with the hidden winch for my TrailHawk Edited to add: Also just noticed the headlights seem to be blacked out inside the bezels. I like the look a lot better than the factory bright silver/chrome insides
