  1. Home-Made Bifold "Firm" Cover

    Mistakes were made along the way... 2 - 4x8x 1/2" PVC Sheet @ $100 ea. 4 - Latches @ $25 ea. Misc hardware including hinges and support brace approx $150. I wanted something that was easy to remove while providing some security. I fully appreciate that it wont support much weight. Failed...
  2. Please advise if you have installed a Battery Tender. Struggling with two elements.

    I am really struggling with how to install a battery tender or supplemental charging system. The picture shows that my '24 Maverick has tabs that appear to make it very difficult to install ring/spade terminals to the charging post in this small space. Do you just break off those plastic tabs...
  3. Disaster Recovery/Preparedness with a Hybrid but the tests are a Insane

    I am trying to prep my 2024 Hybrid Maverick (with Motorcraft AGM out of pocket) for backup power and bought some stuff and the results are driving me a bit crazy. I thought I knew what I was doing but I guess I don't. Consider this a cautionary tale and not a recommendation of anything. Part 1...
  4. Glove Box PDU

    I was annoyed by a few things with my Maverick. 1)Lack of power points that were accessory, not constant. 2)Crawling into the passenger footwell to get access to 12V power. 3) Futzing around with those tiny fuses. I back stabbed a connector to the BCM pin 35 which is a constant signal from...
  5. Hertz K165 with Sound Deadening in Passenger Front Door

    Many thanks to @LazyMex2022 (also a user here as @LaxyMex2022 )and @Bumpers & Doors DIY for there excellent videos on YouTube. It is raining today and I do not have a garage so this is what I did yesterday. Then I screwed up with one of the bolts during re-assembly and decided to stop. Window...
  6. ? JBL Basspro Nano powered subwoofer. Does the high-power/speaker input care about front/back fade?

    Many thanks to @Lane for his excellent build write-up. I am planning a sub-woofer add to a stock/not B&O stereo. I want to tap to the rear speakers for signal to a powered sub. Assuming the rear fade is >0, does the integrated line output converter care what the fade level is in regard to how...
  7. Confirmation that the door latch switch is a Body Ground?

    That is how I read the 2022 Maverick schematic. That the GN-VT (drivers/LH side still can't find exactly the passenger side) is a body ground switch that is closed circuit when the door is opened. I am trying to add some additional courtesy lamps to the footwell when the door is opened. I will...
  8. Mangoal Dashcam has changed and not in a good way for me.

    I ordered a Mangoal dash cam based on the YouTube video from Fred's Garage. I even followed the link provided from YouTube. What I was received was different. Fred's showed a hookup into the OBDII port. Regardless of what you think about it, it did look easy. What I received only included a...
  9. A FAILED experiment trying to wire up an LED tailgate light bar. Fresh impressions.

    Desired Outcome: LED turn signal lights and reverse White. No Running lights as I want that contrast where flash bright competes with NOTHING. No Brake Lights as I want that contrast that the OEM taillights do NOT provide. No warnings or change of driving mode indicating a trailer was...
  10. IPC Instrument Panel Cluster Mystery 4.2 or 6.5

    I have a mystery that I am trying to figure out. Owner's Manual describes and many post have shown that the Maverick has two variant instrument panel clusters, 4.2 and 6.5 inch. ForScan has nothing on the subject as best as I can tell within the IPC section. I did a full (all sheets) search on...
  11. Documentation about ForScan that I created.

    I looked for this or something similar and could NOT find it about all the options that ForScan exposes at least on the friendly screens. I dont know why it was so hard to make the UI of ForScan better. Doc was created with Win 10 Wordpad. Link to the smaller file size Open Office format (both...
  12. ? Forscan Lite license across multiple devices?

    Does the activation code work across more than one Android? Google suggests that the code is attached to something on the OBDII. I only have one of those and Forscan demo complains about it a little. I have Android phone and a Kindle tablet with Google extensions. I have not tried out the...
  13. Xprite LED bed liner lights. Pretty good.

    I cannot find the perfect link on Amazon anymore; even in my Orders List. But I received and in stalled these LED lamps after doing a bedliner. Kit comes with four lamps with clips between each lamp but I decided 3 lamps was good enough for short wheel base. Extra wire was included for tie...
  14. ? Interior Door Latch handles hard to see?

    Pretty minor problem but seeking suggestions. When I put up the custom sun shade it suddenly gets MUCH darker inside the cab. My eyes will eventually adjust but until then it is very hard to find the door latches to exit the vehicle as its black on black. I want the solution to look nice and I...
  15. Rustoleum Pro Bedliner - Request for Opinions on next steps.

    I received the Rustoleum Pro 2 part Epoxy bed liner from Amazon. The box was not damaged but when I opened it, it was clear that one part of the two part Epoxy had leaked into the larger plastic bag that it was packaged in. 90% sure it was part A, the smaller part. Ideally you mix part A and...
  16. LAINLOY (Generic Chinese) Underhood light strip

    Amazon says its 20" but what I received was a bit over 15". Still did a good job. Either size would fit the Maverick without problems. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DK6HQMMX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
  17. Mabett Seat Cover Install with details that I thought were helpful

    https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vShuIeJ5TLTCDKFJnYcPeMcEtOuVrpu09w1Yjs1wxdnS4x9lkC6SrTT39iDmil2Lgzy5MfibrEK-rRt/pub?start=false&loop=false&delayms=60000 I removed the front seats to make as tidy as possible and documented as helpful. Its a slide show which is more navigable...
  18. Weather Proofing bed?

    In preparation for a bed liner install, I had occasion to remove the bed plastic trim. During the process a storm was coming and I covered the holes with a tarp and secured the tarp with the back doors. I still got a lot of water to leak into the cab that ended up in the buckets outboard of the...
  19. Motorcycle Phone holder for Cubby

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D93DLFWQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Works reasonably well. The holder is MUCH stronger than the cubby plastic. The top clamp is a bit stiff and bends the cubby plastic. I haven't been on a bike in quite a long time but its the standard ball clamp found on lots...
  20. Tailgate Removal 2024 XLT?

    I watched the YouTube that was on point. I dropped the spare and disconnected the camera. I disconnected the cables. I tilted the gate and got the passenger side to slide out. But the Driver Side wont bunch and there are no markings that clue me in. Just try HARDER? Doing it in the grass in case...
