  1. How long before you let someone else drive your Bronco?

    The answer depends on whether I am getting laid or not :D
  2. Audio Upgrade Sound Deadening - worth the cost & time to install ??

    In order to access the rear speaker and amp you need to remove all the plastic. At that point adding sound deadening is very low effort, even if it does absolutely nothing. I used Kilmat, which is more reasonably priced https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Q2J2T4 Hard to say if it made a difference.
  3. What tires does everyone run?

    KOs for the past 15 years. Currently KO3, C load, 33 inch. Anything bigger or heavier than that is compensatong for a deficiency elsewhere 😜
  4. Creative Solutions to level the Cargo Lip for Sleeping

    On short trips I use this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B3HQY5PP On long trips I stick two Dometic 3gal water containers in the gap https://www.rei.com/product/210821/dometic-go-hydration-water-jug-11-liters29-gal
  5. Creative Solutions to level the Cargo Lip for Sleeping

    I have the DeepSleep leveing mats. They work well, and unlike their mats, are not ridiculously sized and roll down to the size of a sleeping pad. I use them all the time, together with a cheap self inflating foam mat from Amazon. I also use a cheap inflatable gap filler for the space between...
  6. Updated experience with the CARABC 12 inch upgrade?

    Yes I saw this video but it is a very atypical experience. His upgrade worked without an APIM swap. From what I have been able to gather this only works if you use CarPlay, which is more graceful about resolution rescaling. Here is another one that describes a rather different situation, more...
  7. Updated experience with the CARABC 12 inch upgrade?

    The confusion in this thread is partially user error, partially insufficient documentation from CarAbC. They sell kits that are bezel only, bezel + screen, and bezel + AIPM. They do ask for your VIN to so the AIPM programming
  8. Question on the dash trim choices for Infotainment 8 inch to 12 inch upgrade kit

    Wait, did you install the one from Infotainment or from fordsync4..com? The latter is a somewhat sketchy Chinese company with a very mixed review history.
  9. Updated experience with the CARABC 12 inch upgrade?

    I am contemplating a 12 inch screen upgrade and while the infotainment one is amazing, the price puts a significant dent in the value proposition for what is effectively a nice-to-have cosmetic upgrade (ditto for the center console -would live to do both but...) I have been looking at the...
  10. Sunshade that is not a PITA to keep under hard top

    Considered it but putting the front panels on looked like a hassle.
  11. What's the best purchase you've made for your Bronco under $200?

    I am a cheap bastard and almost nothing on my Bronco is over $200. I rarely do upgrades if I don't think they are useful, and I find all of the below essential for my needs In no particular order Highway Radar app. The best $0 you can spend to save hundreds, possibly thousands, dien the road...
  12. Sunshade that is not a PITA to keep under hard top

    When installing the velcro, do you you need to run it down the rail in the back to account for the top overlapping in the back (as seen in the first image) or do you run it along the top of the rail like the rest of the install? This was not clear from the install video.
  13. Sunshade that is not a PITA to keep under hard top

    It is my impression that the main problem on the 4door is the clearance between the roll bar and the top. But given the explicit disclaimer that it is not compatible with a hard top I took it off the list, particularly since they, understandably, will not accept returns on products when an...
  14. Sunshade that is not a PITA to keep under hard top

    Thanks but... Velcro... Ewww 😂
