I replaced my B&O with a mobridge amp/DSP and Focal 3ways up front and Focal speakers in larger pods in back. Cant say enough about how good it sounds.
I bought a top lift pro v2 for $600, lightly used. First time taking the top off, I was so surprised how easy it was. Of course, there was some trepidation, but the thing is solid. Only downside for me is in order to use the electric lift, I have to use an extension cord, for now. It does...
I went down that rabbit hole…TWICE!
My first Bronco was a Badlands with the normal audio. I swapped all of the speakers with kicker and used a kicker 800w watt amp to power a 12” subwoofer. It actually sounded decent.
About 6 months later, traded in Badlands for the raptor with the B&O...
agreed. BUT why do they need the Bronco for hours just to switch out the middle panel? The service advisor couldn’t tell me, he just said “that’s what the tech told me”.
Update to my update. I took the Bronco in to get the new middle panel. Apparently, “not all of the parts” arrived. I received a message from service advisor today that they arrived and they will need the Nronco for several hours to install parts. I’m a bit confused as it’s only the middle top...
Just as an update, the service advisor looked at the top and ordered a new top last week. Just got notification that it is in today. So, for all of my complaining, they came through.
I’ve had the Bronco for just over a year. I park it in my garage when not used and it gets professionally washed every 6 weeks (filtered water, yada, yada). The ONLY reason I saw the issue was because I took the panel off to go topless for the first time. I wish I had noticed it earlier.
Thanks! I know there are other threads, but usually are around the rear top and cracking around window. I could not find much on the actual panels...but then again, im not that good at searching.
Thanks for the advice.
My $0.02
Ive had the Raptor for over a year now. Ive driven in some pretty tight spaces, but at no point have i ever felt that the Raptor CANT be an urban vehicle. Its quite nimble and can get into some small spots. As far as parking garage, just keep the stock antenna...that is my guage!
I took the entire top off last week. When I was putting the middle panel (the longer one) away, I noticed some lumps and definitely some cracking. I called my dealership to get it checked out, but the service adisor kept telling me they dont do body work. I explained to them that this is not...
Thank you, Fraser for the guidance and advice. If I may, I need to email you with some questions. AS always, it would probably be easier with a phone call but id like to get my questions on paper first!
So, after upgrading my Badlands to a Raptor, I figured I would be OK with the B&O. Boy was I wrong.
I then thought just by replacing the speakers and adding a kicker amp and subwoofer would fix the b&O . Boy was I wrong.
I finally went in on a Mobridge amp. Went to a local audio guy who put...
I’ll be doing this soon. Appointment is next week. We are putting Focal 165 as3 up front, eliminating the center channel, and putting bigger ods in the back to carry Focal 165’s. Using a mobridge amp. I can’t wait.
