Raingler makes it. It was $129, but you can upgrade to mil-spec at $142.

I plan on doing more in the back as far as attachment points for straps and such- I have some hardware from the motorpool that would go good with tension straps to do that. That will wait until I am ready to drop the gas tank to get my seized shackle bolts out (going with the H.D. Offroad relocators) as well as pulling the carpet to see how bad my rust is to start patching. Want to collect all the stuff to do it all over a long weekend and/or some leave time.

Here was my solution for a little more interior storage.
Edit: the allen bolts are now replaced by studs with plastic knobs to crank the panels down. I'll. Get a better pic tommorow

I started off using those just to make the holes, but realized it was just as easy to use e screws that come in the package. You just have to make sure you tighten them straight. Screw the first one in one of the upper corner holes tight so it holds the handle straight, the take your time screwing the others in. I just added one more handle on the other side. They work awesome to hang D-rings off of. I hung some 50ft electric extension cord with an "S"-clip off one of them. I still love it.
Those screws that come with it are solid. I pulled on each of the handles, and they aren't going anywhere.
When I first bought the handles at HD, there was another model with just two holes, but I decided on the 4-hole on because it would be stronger.....kinda how I justified using the screws that come in the bag...
Thanks.

Got these handles from a marine supply joint online.

I did this in my TJ...I know it's not an XJ, but it may give someone a good idea for an aux, or ipod mount.

A company makes a bracket similar to that for the 97+ XJ. I can't recall the name now, but it was like $15. It is mounted via the radio bolts.

Got a link? They don't even list a Cherokee bezel mount on their website, and I don't see that mount either.

I'm pretty sure there's another thread about that mount, or a similar one, but I can't find it yet. Was it Pro.fit?
edit- Found it. Disco'ed now, but there are still a few around. http://www.naxja.org/forum/showpost.php?p=244972263&postcount=4
