volksnuts’ Lariat Maverick build

[volksnuts]

I bet those Bronco Sport seats will bolt right in the Maverick!

Shhh... she'll never know!

But I love my seats!
I’m sure it’s just a module that needs to be added…..

Do you happen to have the part number for that A/C Control from the Bronco? Mine was one of the orders built after they stopped putting the temp screens in and I'd been thinking about how to fix that.

I just noticed the missing temp screens... Sheeze Ford... I ordered a 2022 over a year ago, waiting for a 2023 build now and they keep removing more and more features and charging more before I ever get my truck!

I am already going to be in the hole -$2000 after the "private offer." Vinyl wrapped steering instead of leather, no temp read outs on dual AC, pay for remote start fob, pay for bed liner, sunroof $300 more, no wifi... Ugh...

I feel like I went to a restaurant and when they hand me my burger I ordered hours earlier they ask if I want the new upcharges for each condiment.

Did some work tonight, added some spacers to the back seat to give some space to the subs
Also added some space behind the seat for the amp rack
Flipped the upper latch point so it still locks in place
The lower locks internally and just rests on the cross bar so I’ve got to figure out a spacer situation that doesn’t look like crap
Doubtful anyone would ever even notice the rear seat is higher
Stoked I’m not having to cut/ modify any of the metal structure…. Which I was totally down to do

It was dark outside
Not much to see really
The seat moved but still looks the same

How much did you raise the seats?

A tick over 1/2”
But considering going more for extra room to work with

Picked up another amp for the fronts, though I am pretty sure I’ll need to take it back for it’s big brother (mainly depends on what front speakers I decide on)
Was rushed swinging by the shop on my way home
Picked up the wrong PAC kit
The CORRECT kit requires removal of the B&O amp which I’m stoked about
Also big bonus is the harness plugs in AT the amp so I don’t have to get into the dash to install

They threw in some Russian damping material (lol) I should have enough Hushmat left over from the F150 but a little more isn’t going to hurt

Really trying to get everything lined up so I can have a crazy weekend soon doing car audio stuffs

Was off by one number!

What exactly does the pac kit do? Is that to run amps with your factory head unit?

Yes it allows aftermarket audio system to work with the factory interface
Will also allow more control of how it sounds
I’ve not used one before so I’m excited to try it out
Plug and play is always the best

I have to look into this. I was looking at a lc7i from plugandplaykits that had all the wiring included and the lc7i but a few other people recommended going with a DSP. I’m not too familiar with hooking up a amp to the factory head unit so all this stuff is confusing lol. I have a alpine 4 channel amd a alpine mono amp plus a 10” sundown I took out of my old truck that I’m looking to put in my maverick.
