I tried to get a couple sunroof companies to install fixed tinted glass in existing removable panels.
They said not possible, too thick.
I would be a player for something like that. Still same removable panels, just tinted clear.
Was planning on retiring my 06 LJ Rubicon that I have flat towed everywhere when my Bronco came in. After seeing all the flat tow problems with the Bronco, I'll just keep the LJ & use the Bronco as an over-priced grocery getter.
P.S. Warning: In flat tow mode Ford has decided you don't need no...
Perimeter Plus is the OEM system with vibration sensor. When the scumbag went through the roof, the alarm would go off & starter disable would kick in.
The regular alarm should do this, but alas it's all about $$.
This is just a screw-up. Why no Brake indicator light ONLY in Flat Tow ?? Major programing mistake that will cost me, not Ford.
Next they'll tell us to confirm the engine is running, open the hood & stick your fingers in the fan. Who needs a working tach, or ebrake light ??
I shouldn't have to rock it etc, just to find out if the brake is ON. In every other mode, other than flat tow, there is an indicator BRAKE light on the dash.
Surely Ford is smarter than that. They just screwed up. The tow bill was $390. ( roadside asst said they didn't have a provider in the...
eBrake dash light DOES NOT work when in Flat Tow neutral. So you have no way of knowing if the brake is ON or OFF.
I found this out this morning when evidently the brake was ON when I began to flat tow. NO INDICATOR LIGHT.
When I saw smoke in my rear RV mirror, it was too late. It shredded...
Is it just me ? Is the remote mirror switch upside down ? To make the mirror go up you push the switch down. To make the mirror go down you press the switch up. What ??
That's because it's cheap vinyl. A quality aftermarket neoprene (wet suit) is a much better choice. I have Wet Okole on my '06 Rubicon & they have performed flawlessly for years. I will be putting them on my '23 Basquatch. Put 'em over the vinyl or better, remove the vinyl first.
Hard to beat Granger to home shipping. I ship several vehicles a year & try various transport companies. No more. STOPWATCH is my go-to from now on. Not the absolute cheapest but definitely not the most expensive. But best of all, they do what they say they will do, for the amount they quote, &...
I purchased the standard model. The fit is excellent. It perfectly follows the hood ups & downs. Follow the directions, installation is quick & easy. Don't follow the directions & you may regret it. Once the 3M grabs, you can't change the position.
The look & texture is so much better than other...
Just to clarify, you can use the factory keyfob to remote start, LOCK UNLOCK LOCK, but only from the short distance allowed by the FOB. With the Perimeter Plus keyfob ($95.) you get long range remote start. Ford claims 1/4 mile. Easy from inside my house, 3 floors up, into the garage. Works...
Here's the deal. Base has Perimeter alarm. You can remote start with app ( free for now) . in order to start with keyfob you must buy & install Perimeter Plus and a separate remote. Ford accessories sells these & the dealer can install. Ford site says $50. to install.
That's what I did.
After nothing from my local hometown dealer that I gave my reservation to, who also has a local Toyota dealership that I have bought 4 new Toyota's from over the years, I called him. The Toyota side had referred me to the Ford guy(GM of Ford side) saying he would take care of me.
Well, you...
