volksnuts’ Lariat Maverick build

[volksnuts]

Also I went ahead and just ordered the wiring bits I need online
I wanted to buy from my local stereo shop but it’s not really that local anymore and I don’t foresee having time to go over there in the next two weeks

I’m standing here seeing the light at the end of the tunnel….Don’t really want to add more time to it

Nice work sir. I will start mine as soon as the weather permits. Texas weather isnt too friendly at the moment.

Seems to be about as nice as it’s going to be

I guess to document the changes made

picked it up a little over a week ago (November order)

Hot Pepper Red Lariat Lux FX4
Rolling on Vision Monaco 20x8.5 with 245/45/20 Falkens
Lowered via Scale coilovers (low version)
Lots of little things added (tailgate strut, hood struts, Buschur intake, window tint)
A couple of modifications of note:
Retro fit a/c controls with the temp screens from a 21 Bronco Sport
Editing this part real quick
The Bronco Sport controls caused a fault in my drive mode selection so I ended up switching to an Escape control panel that works flawlessly
Some people have been able to use the Bronco one with no issue
I guess your mileage may vary

Red tinted taillights to get rid of that weird clear/chrome section all Mavericks have
Rocking a Raceface tailgate pad since I bought this specifically to carry bikes

There will be many mods to come as I have time and trying to wait on products to be released
I’m not good at fabricating things so I try to not if I can help it
Let’s see if anyone notices what was done in this last pic (and it’s not the removal of the headrests)

enabled fog lights in the cluster…. Still a work in progress though as I need to add some wires to the harness

did you paint over the side markers? are they still illuminated?

Yes I painted them
No they don’t illuminate because I removed the bulbs, however I believe they would light up somewhat if the bulbs were there

15 minutes??....In Springfield MO, we say 5 minutes

Winner!

The thing that sucks about it is you have to cut the belt to get it off

next step is to remove the middle belt cage thing
Hoping to make as much room as possible behind the seat
For reasons

That frees up a lot of space... wow really no way to remove without cutting the seat belt?

I didn’t spend a lot of time trying to figure it out
I guess maybe there is a way but it wasn’t immediately obvious to me
