Relax everyone! I’m researching this very serious issue.
I’ve got calls into the C.I.A., the K.G.B. and the Mossad.
Stay tuned. I’ll keep you posted

I'm thinking of adapting a rolling coal system to distract from the light

i hadn’t noticed it before, but now that I know about it, I can’t stand it.

I’m calling Carvana first thing tomorrow morning.
Or you can just sell it to me.

Try putting a piece of black electrical tape over part of the lens. Covering approximately the back most 1/3 seems to work and cuts down the spill over.

Inherently flawed :whistle:
I agree! Who would let this absurdity past design phase?
I'm on the phone with FORD right now and they are going to hear it!

That doesnt bother me at all. What does bother me is that the blue light that lights up the storage area for your phone only lights up on my XLT when I turn the truck off at night. When I'm driving at night it's off. I would prefer that slight blue glow when driving so when I look down to get something from there I can see it. Can that be changed in forscan?

Also the automatic highbeam being set to auto everytime I get in the truck and drive it in the dark. That feature i would prefer if it was off, and i could turn it on as needed. For now i just click it off. Wondering if that could be switched off in forescan too.

How did you do that? I'm thinking that a decal mask that says Ford , or Maverick , or the shape of the truck could be applied to the lens. I would be interested in one of those. It would be really cool. Those could be made on the cheap out of high quality black vinyl on a computer die cutter, and shipped in a mailer envelope. I'd say $10 each, most people on here would want one.

Ehhh, i dunno if that would work.

Behind the scenes it needed to be pretty far away. I also needed to cover one of the two LEDs so it didn't get double vision

I turned the auto high beam off in the settings, as I don't like it either, but I'm not sure if you are asking about just the high beam setting, or the auto lamps in general (which you can't shut off apparently).

Yes auto high beams. I want those off. Want to switch them on when I want them on. Thanks, I just went into the garage and fixed it.

Now I want that blue light above the orange cubby area in the center console to stay lit when the headlights are on.
