Designed to perfectly fit the 1997-2006 Jeep TJ, these brackets were machined to mount on the A-Pillar and hold single-stud mounted lights. The 4.5″ LED Light Cannon (XIL-OEA9706TJCPZ1) kit comes with two lights, a wiring harness, and mounting brackets for a plug-and-play experience. As with most Vision X vehicle-specific kits, the 1997-2006 Jeep TJ A-Pillar kit does not require any drilling to be mounted.

The new A-Pillar brackets will allow TJ owners to install lights in a unique spot on their vehicle and achieve light distances of up to 1,000 feet. They are constructed from high-quality steel, and surpassed rugged product testing at the infamous King of the Hammers event earlier this year.

The Elite by UnderCover is the most refined UnderCover tonneau cover to date. It is meticulously designed and engineered, making it the new standard in the aftermarket industry. The Elite has spectacular new features that set it apart, starting with a completely new design that includes a handle with codeable BOLT lock. The Elite’s new handle is easy to use and ergonomically correct, and its OE design matches the look of new trucks. ABS composite material and X-Effect underside give it incredible strength and durability. An included lanyard allows you to easily access cargo that is just out of reach, and when not in use, it stores neatly out of the way. A new removable LED light is 3 times brighter than the original! Just slide the release to remove the light, fold out the hook to hang it, use the magnet to stick it, or simply set it down on its built-in feet. All UnderCover products are made right here in the USA.

DEI (010383): Fuel Injector Reflective Heat Covers

John Arnaud Leave a comment

In hot temperatures, both performance and factory fuel injectors can be at risk of vapor lock or heat soak, which can cause a rough idle, slow starting, or other potential serious engine problems. DEI’s Fuel Injector Reflective Heat Covers (010383, 8 pack) solve this problem by reflecting both direct and radiant heat away from the injectors. Constructed of high-temperature-rated glass fiber material bonded to a heat-reflective aluminized material, these DEI covers can be used on most engine configurations that use stock or aftermarket fuel injectors. Cooler fuel injectors will perform more efficiently, offering a more consistent throttle response.

Installation is a breeze, as the injectors do not have to be removed. The covers feature a split design, allowing them to wrap around each individual injector, and are secured with a sewn-in hook-and-loop fastening edge.

K&N (69-3536TTK): Typhoon Intake for 2015 Ford Mustang 3.7L

John Arnaud Leave a comment

A K&N performance air intake system is designed to free up horsepower being lost to restrictive factory air inlet components. By replacing the stock enclosed air box, accordion hosing, and sound baffling, a K&N performance air intake system can reduce restriction, straighten airflow, and increase both horsepower and torque. K&N’s 2015 Ford Mustang Fastback V6 and 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible V6 air intake systems (69-3536TTK) replace these restrictive factory parts with a mandrel-bent aluminum air intake tube, finished in a flat black powdercoat and coupled to a high-flow washable and reusable K&N air filter. Additionally, it incorporates an application-specific, powder-coated heat shield, which helps block hot air from entering the intake system.

By John M. Arnaud

Last Thursday, Performance Corner and The AAM Group enjoyed a special visit with representatives from two of our program vendors: CURT Manufacturing, a giant in the towing industry, and ARIES Automotive, whose custom pickup and Jeep accessories help trailblazers everywhere break their own ground.

We spent the day brainstorming ways that Performance Corner’s marketing tools and services could introduce CURT and ARIES products—hitches, grille guards, bumpers, seat covers, and towing accessories—to more of our jobbers and their customers.

Thanks to Jeff Perez, Joe Thompson, and Patrick Cripe for flying out to see us. We loved having you and look forward to an exciting year ahead!

To add towing power or aggressive styling to your truck, head on over to your local Performance Corner retailer, or find an affiliated store using our dealer locator.
