Doesn't fit the retro design elements like the giant 12" screen to the right which is amongst the largest you will see in modern automobiles? Sorry but that just doesn't compute especially given the outgoing display was largely digital.
Absolutely agree! I do like my Big Bend grille better than the 2025 as well. The biggest letdown on the 2025 Big Bend is the removal of the 2-door configuration. I got my 2024 2-door 7MT Big Bend thinking this may be the last opportunity, and it's turning out I may have been right. With supply problems, sagging economy I'm wondering if the "late year" base Bronco will even materialize. That would mean the only way to get a 2-door manual with open diffs may be gone entirely now??
Dang. I know I’m probably the only one on here to think this, but I love the Big Bend grille. Bought this trim specifically for the grille and cloth seats. Got screwed out of the cloth but I got the grille.
I guess I definitely need to start looking for takeoff BB grilles to keep as spares. Deer around here come looking for cars to run in front of.
Anyone know if this is possible?? I'm highly considering it on mineAgreed.
Now I need to see how to add the 2025 cluster to my 2024! 🫣
Yeah, it definitely is unpopular as you can tell by the replies of people saying they swapped and how many you can see on sale. I was one of those people that didn't like it at first but changed my mind when I got mine.
Not sure except for aftermarket, and mine already has digital gauges, but they really are a bad design. I have not seen the analog gauges everyone is mentioning.
The screen is well integrated into the dash and doesn't look out of place. In fact, I think the 12" screen looks better than the 8" because you don't have that ugly bezel on the dash that looks out of place. I am not saying that screens suddenly make a design unretro, it's the design of the graphics. Look at how the new Mustang has retro gauges, that fits the retro design even though its digital. If Ford were to do the same and add a design that is influenced by the first gen Bronco than I would say that is better and fits the retro design elements more than the previous gauge cluster.
They mean the pre-2025 cluster that looked more like the original bronco dash
The software is different then 21-24 so it would need a ford update/rewrite as well that might not communicate with your current CPU. Your dash cluster info is not the same as the updatable Infotainment cluster/screen in the middle you can update OTAAgreed.
Now I need to see how to add the 2025 cluster to my 2024! 🫣
But the pre-2025 Bronco already had a electronic cluster that was inspired by the FSB dash.
