Bronco Trail Sight Delete – Test Fitting

[Blitzjb]

As much as I have come to appreciate the factory styling of the Bronco, I can also appreciate clean body lines. Design work on these trail sight deletes is pretty much complete. This 3D printed model allowed me to verify fitment and visualize dome design options. I will do some very minor tweaks to the fitment so all the gaps and heights are dead on. I plan to get these into production next month.
.
Goal will be to build them from an approriate alloy and offer them in a black anodized finish, or ready for paint. Install on these is a 10 minute job so you can roll with OEM for off-road use, and swap these on for mall crawling.
.
If anyone is interested In updates on these drop me a DM with your email, but I will post more here for sure

Great idea

Cool idea. I go back and forth. Some days I love the trail sites, other days not so much. Definitely interested in seeing your final product.

Tee hee he, tee hee he. Everyone hated trail sights at launch. But now they are on board with trail sights. I think you did a fantastic job buddy. Good stuff. But while people are telling you what to do. Can you add lazers into it so I can shoot other cars.

Very clean. Well done. How about adding a few mounting spots for a low slung light Bar. Something just below the hood so it won’t interfere with the hood itself.

I have considered this. should be revealing another item next week that fits right along your idea

Are you only planning to offer these in "an approriate alloy"? Interested but in a smooth, paintable ABS piece.

Its multiple molds and manufacturing process to do both, but I do plan to experiment with both options since this is not load bearing. Costs will really determine which route we go, but billet is so cool.

Pretty cool, but I actually like the phew phew sites on them.

I have something coming for you soon my friend.

Hmm, a nice led strip light would be kinda interesting to see.

I thought about this. Integration of the light then doing wiring is a little tricky, but not bad for a future project.

or old school turn signal indicators that point back toward the cabin!

That would be bad ass

That just makes it look like something is missing.

Its mainly because the part is gray. Once its body colored or anodized black it will flow

I'll buy a smooth set. Send me a price. I almost dont care how much they cost. Just make it where I can paint em. The trail sights are just as ugly as the Raptor flares to me.

For sure man. I am working on getting production info this week

Wouldn't it be beneficial to simply re-make the OEM trail sights out of alloy, for additional strength/durability while increasing the tie-down limit? Or widen the cutout to accommodate the width of a ratcheting strap?

Give me a couple more days brother. I got you.

It loses the Bronco character.

Maybe it just makes the character..... different.....

I always loved those.

Thanks man. Life is all about options.

Laser beams.... check...... I thought about allowing it to shoot bees also, but still working through the honey storage...

Don't do it on my account. I've been waiting 570+ days with no VIN in sight

GMRS antenna pass thru with a screw.inder the hood and a threaded end to mount antenna too

Thats brutal man. At least you might have something else to look forward to.

My other model might have some functionality for you

I told the wife they are heel hooks for when she is wearing heals and we go out on date night.

She didn't even fight me on that reply.

Personally, I love the Trail sights utility and character. However, if I hated them, this would do the trick. Nice execution! The lightbar and radio antenna mount ideas are cool too

 

[WildTrak]

interested .... will be watching this thread for updates.
