I installed this kit (along with the 2024 Diode Dynamics fog lights) and it's awesome looking!

Good idea getting a spare piece of trim to practice on. Junk yard would be a good place to grab one.
Pulling off the pillar trim is easy and I leave it off till I fix the rattle. Add some felt tape between the airbag connectors and the metal. They tend to rattle a bit.
Don't try to do all...
I use felt tape... And sometimes goop when I need to fix a clip in place. It's flexible, and removable using pliers.
As for the scufs. I have not had too many of them, but whenn I get one that bothers me, I use a torch and lightly heat the plastic (passing the flame across the plastic...
I have never purchased a new or used car that did not have rattles. But it's not hard to figure it out. I usually start with one of the annoying spots and remove that trim. Then while driving try and figure out where it's coming from. My mav lhad an uncut tywrap in the A pillar and a loose...
After fixing the mounting angle and low voltage detection and using this dashcam for a week, I am impressed! Here is a sample video with AI enabled. The license plate recognition and GPS display are very well done.
Thanks for the idea!
I implemented something similar with a few tweaks:
To use the 20A Flex bed power connector, I lowered the Viair start/stop pressure switch to 85/105 psi. This keeps the compressor draw under 18A, allowing it to run safely off the Flex Bed 12V tap.
I revised the wiring to...
I have this pad as well. I didn’t buy it for noise reduction or aesthetics—I installed it to help insulate the aluminum hood from engine heat. It should reduce thermal shock, which can contribute to paint failure over time.
That said, I don’t expect much concern from Ford if the finish does...
I purchased the new 2026 version of Mangoal Ford Maverick dashcam last week and...
It is Excellent in almost every way—except for two significant issues.
I'm not going to cover the positives (excellent picture quality, OEM look, ease of install, quality look and feel, simple to use software...
Added USB and 12v outlet to one of the bed cubbies. Also added a switch so they're only switched on when I need them. I know power to the flexbed connectors times out, but no sense in powering them all the time when they will be used only occasionally.
You forgot coverage along with fitment. That is to priority for me when selecting floor mats. Then durability, followed by appearance and durability. Thickness never comes to mind, because a quality ( durability) thin matt will outlast a cheap thick mat!
Lithium Moto offers an H4 sodium battery rated at 36Ah and an H5 rated at 50Ah. The amp-hour (Ah) rating is the key specification when trying to prevent a deep sleep condition if battery drain is the root cause.
With only 36Ah of storage capacity, the system would enter deep sleep sooner than...
Everyone who welds likes to critique other welders! My son welded a few things for me last year. When I showed them to him again this year, I told him I had welded them. He immediately said he would have done a better job… LOL. 😄
I just finished up installing DD fog lights on my 25 Lariat Hybrid. I used the following combination of items:
1. Drew's (Chappystick) 2025-6 Fog light brackets and bezels.
2. DD fog lights for 22-24 Maverick.
3. Ford F150 headlight switch with fog light switch.
4. Antonio (Vtec87pr1) modded my...
👍
I got a pair and they are much better than the others. Not sharp and edgy (less blood in the truck when jumping in and out of the bed). Plus they are really solid!
😂
I missed out on a good laugh .. we should have done that.
But when I took an old exercise bike to the dump...we laughed about having someone ride it while driving. An added horsepower option for the hybrid!
Thanks... I have seen many variations on the vent shades. 4 different types that were "ford" products. My parts guy said they have trouble getting inventory of options like this...and now it kind of a free for all. They have pasted their label on just about anything they can find.
