I'm very much becoming a DIY kinda guy but have never worked much with vehicles. I'm thinking the Base trim will be perfect for my budget and as a starter project. I'm posting this thread in interior mods because that's where most of my questions are right now. Let's assume I'm a complete novice, so simpler, well explained answers are appreciated. However I have an engineering degree so if you can at least point me in the right direction to get started, I love solving problems in creative ways.
I would love to get Badlands with mid, high, or lux, but for above reasons will not get it. How difficult will it be to do those interior/tech mods myself on the Base? The big ones I really want to highlight:
If it matters for how you answer, I'm looking at 2.3L basemansquatch.
Thanks in advance!
I would love to get Badlands with mid, high, or lux, but for above reasons will not get it. How difficult will it be to do those interior/tech mods myself on the Base? The big ones I really want to highlight:
- Washout interior. I love this concept. I want to remove all carpet and cloth, and make it so if I drive through the rain by accident it's no big deal. So what am I looking at doing? Seats, floors, waterproofing buttons/dash, etc?
- Heated seats. Mostly for the wife, because I like the cold. (I'm younger, I'm weird I know)
- Sound deadoning. How difficult would it be to redo the whole interior? Just the top? I'm probably going basesquatch and B&P won't let me get the sound deadoning top with squatch
- Upgraded stereo and syncing it with the computer (idk what else to call it but the 8"screen already in there) and speakers. Any constraints?
- Additional outlets (like what comes with mid package)
- wireless phone charging pad
- Intelligent access. I love the idea of not having keys in hand to unlock my door. My temporary work around will be the keypad
- Safety features like adaptive cruise control, evasive steering, etc. Is that even possible to DIY? I'm fine going without it but I wouldn't mind it
If it matters for how you answer, I'm looking at 2.3L basemansquatch.
Thanks in advance!
