Howdy! New to Wrangler. Car gal for more years than I will reveal. Run a local cars n coffee and am also a Subi gal. Bought a 2015 Wrangler sport and love it but couple of questions. The seats suck and so does the horn. It’s CA so damn Prius’s in the way and the horn is a sissy. Suggestions for those two? . Rest is dialed in and I co owned a 96 Cherokee so know good places to get stuff. Also locking gas cap suggestions? (Again it’s CA so you trust no one). Appreciate the guidance. Not sure how long I will have her since I am not staying CA but want to enjoy her and life.
New to Wrangler and looking for some guidance.

If you don't want to install the compressors needed for a big-rig air horn, I'd suggest the WOLO 419 Bad Boy or WOLO 619 Big Bad Max:

Or the Stebel Nautilus is also a good choice.
It'll take a minor wiring end mod (need to change the JK wires to spade ends), and will upgrade to a bolder, louder horn.

Unfortunately, jeep seats are rarely something to write home about, especially if you are used to the highly customizable ones in many modern cars today.
There are so many... so many, aftermarket seats for wranglers. I can't speak to the quality or comfort of any of them though.

I figured there are many. I have warranty and having dealer look at the seat that won’t adjust. At least it’s not me lol
Nice looking almost blank canvas!
You get out your checkbook and we'll be more than happy to help you spend your money!
Up near Sacto?

Yes near Sac. Not keeping it long as not staying in CA, so only putting a bit in her. I Need the wind…Had an H2 for years and love my WRX but nothing beats topless and this year suxs so topless and wind is coming
Too bad you're not keeping her.
Anyway, the resale market for JKs is great right now. Be sure to check auto trader, edmunds, etc. and get a good idea what the comparable sales numbers are, because what you think it may be worth and what you can get for it may be very different... in your favor.
Locking gas cap- you can spend $15 or $100... this Chrysler replacement is the low end: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B094JLJ556/?tag=jkforum-20
You are correct. I have already been offered 35k for her. Only 58k miles..,I know I gotta take the rear seat out. No need for it and I want the room. Sure there is a You Tube for that … I am enjoying it much more than the Cherokee. I think it needs the stabilizer bar for the front, the smitty winch is heavy and got a wee bit of nose dip.
Upgrade the shocks? Were they replaced when the lift was done? (It looks like it was lifted in the pics, maybe just the angle?)

I must be able to get 100k for mine then.You are correct. I have already been offered 35k for her. Only 58k miles..,I know I gotta take the rear seat out. No need for it and I want the room.

Unsure of either. I will ask dealer when I go in.
come to a Dreams and Drivers cars n coffee Feb 20 at Milagro in Fair Oaks. 9-11 You can take a look and tell me what she has.
Who knows. I’d like to do a few things with it but can’t go crazy. It’s kind of a therapy vehicle. Going to a friend to install headlights and grab bars and get that rear seat out. It sure is fun though!
You don't need to go crazy. Enjoy your Jeep for what it is and let the modifications, if any, come naturally according to your experience.
