  1. Site Downtime: Our Apologies

    Being an occasional post'er, my heart dropped a beat when i saw the dreaded Server-Down message. Maybe a fun survey what people were coming to see / do when they discovered we were on our own for a few days! Personally, I just returned from camping in Shaver Lake & pulling my little travel...
  2. No longer get any interior lights when entering my truck

    I agree. You'll also notice the bed lights won't turn on with the bed switch.
  3. 🎉Drive Down Memory Lane with Dad: Share Your Best Rides Together

    Fantastic thread idea, I'll bite. I come from a fine family of Ford fanatics. Earliest truck memory is from the 80's riding in the back camper shell with 3 sisters, mom and dad in the cab of his '68 green F100 headed to Mammoth, CA for camping (sadly, no pictures). When that truck was stolen...
  4. Bike Rack Setups - Show Yours!

    I'm going full cheap on this build. The skewer brackets are twenty-five bucks each. I swung the back wheels together to create a triangle and reduce bending motion when things are bouncing around. I'm going to experiment with a few different configurations, maybe some stiffeners but this is the...
  5. What did you do TO your F-150 today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    This thread looks like fun, I'll jump in. I completely agree with @home oil changes, especially when we're more motivated to take our time and let it all drain out of the pan. It also gives us an opportunity to do any damage assessment, inspect belts, radiator, joints, brakes, equivalent to the...
  6. What did you do TO your F-150 today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Throw a POLICE INTERCEPTOR badge in the bottom left corner
  7. 2023 Ford F150 Platinum B&O Unleashed (the leash broke) - System Upgrade - Here We Go Again!

    I'm gonna have to agree. This thread got me real interested in the realm of possible when it comes to aftermarket car stereo and I think Sonnie is on the bleeding edge. 100% agree the center front is way over gain versus the sides. and my headrest speakers contribute more white noise static than...
  8. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    I did you a solid. For fun I confirmed the upper fairings can come off before you do anything else, and I took pics. Start by lightly pulling the edge of the fairing as you referred adjacent to the work station area. Pictures show the forward facing tabs and the clips that fight each other when...
  9. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    2 upper side fairings and 2 lower side fairings on the center console. Start with uppers first. Start at aft edge at the arm rest. Pull out horizontally toward the doors. But be warned, the front of the upper fairing has a forward facing tab you'll have to pivot out and slightly pull back...
  10. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    So I’m curious, when you slide the whole console back, there’s only harnesses that need to be detached in order to do that and no hard cables/rods since everything is electronic?-correct. I don’t have my truck just yet but I’m anxious to see how that’s gonna work. Seems like it be easier than...
  11. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    The 2-wire harness with upper glove box connector is perfect, slightly long which gives options for routing. The 3-wire to power the cup holder from the passenger foot well was slightly short because I chose to slide my center console back instead of y'all preferred method of removing the...
  12. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    My upper glove box is now illuminated, that was a very easy addition thanks to the JHF custom harness, thanks!
  13. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    I just finished my install, had no problem sliding the console back until I realized the JHF harnesses are a bit short for my installation technique. I had to maneuver a bit to get enough slack in the wires,.. no big deal!
  14. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    The upper glove box is injection molded graphite reinforced plastic. Really hard to cut because it melts, hardens and rebonds itself. I made a template from the bulb, yellow oil pen where I wanted to place it and went to town. I bent the top of the box to view the backside stiffeners and placed...
  15. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    as an alternative, you might consider sliding the arm rest console back. You can find (4) 10mm bolts along the base, you'll have to position the seats all the way forward then all the way back to access them, and then there are 2 more 10mm bolts against the firewall. The entire console will then...
  16. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    That is my original cover, I removed it and took it to an engraving shop to get the image burned in.
  17. Cup holder light installation / media bin light / glove box light / ambient lighting change

    I'll add my lessons learned thus far. I bought the entire cup holder assembly (ML3Z-1513562-CB) from OEM PartSource under 20 bucks. It arrived as anticipated, the entire assembly. I bought a second media bin LED that I'll be installing inside the upper glove box. I found that it's easier to...
