May we inquire to why your front end and half your new bronco is missing . .?

You’ll find out pretty soon.

AVS Bugflector installed. Mountain window decals installed. Mountain over Ford logo installed. 3rd brake light decal installed.

Gotta admit I'm jealous of those graphics. I suppose I should get busy with the cricut.

Other than the floor mats and cargo area mat I haven't made any additions to my Bronco. Is there something wrong with me that I just love it the way it is?

You should! Adding a little something helps to break up the "WHAM" of the Velocity Blue. I'm keeping a simple and clean blue and white build. Only thing I'm planning to accent with a bit more color are the tow hooks. The ones already on the vehicle complete all the graphics I planned on adding so I don't make it too busy.

Still have mud flaps, LED Bronco lettering, cross bars, and LED side turn signals to install. Getting there.

Let’s just get you back into this nice white jacket with the extra long arms and then you can rest in the nice soft room with the pillow walls.

Looks like you're gonna need the one with four sleeves.

That's a game changer. That panel just comes off with a trim tool? Then you notched the side or just left it off? Like someone else said, there's room for an aftermarket part here. Even just a replacement cover with a couple of those standardized ball mount posts so you can put anything compatible on.

I popped mine off this morning. The center screw (M5-.8) is pretty deep under the cover. looks like if you did a 1 inch ball that has the 1/4-20 tapped hole, you could just drill a hole in the cover and add a black fender washer on the outside and a 1/4-20 bolt and fender washer from the inside. The 3 inch B clamp puts my GPS right above the center screen. I might see what I can do to make a part that mounts directly to the center mount to make it more rigid.

I didn't tear mine up yet, but I am undecided what to do. After a year of using the factory Nav, I'm a little over it and ready to go back to my Garmin GPS. I don't want to pay for cel data so CarPlay isn't an option for me.

This is my previous mount. The GPS has this dock and I just fixed the mount to the dash with that 3M tape. The dock will pop onto any ball mount like that, I think it is 17mm. Very solid, but it did require a lot of wiring to get the wire into the dash. The Garmin uses a custom cable that goes from a 12v to a mini USB. It looks like there is a lot of space back there to run a cable down to the fuse panel and I can put a 12v outlet someplace. I have to locate a different ball adapter or just go ahead and stick this one to the Bronco dash. I was thinking the same as you, sandwich it to the cover.

I would get a 1” to 17mm ball adapter. That’s my plan.

Went to Discount Tire and ordered 5 of the Falken AT3W today, they gave me credit for my factory 235 Pirellis so that was nice. Can’t wait to get them installed but that won’t be until next Saturday as I leave on a work trip tomorrow. Also ordered several accessories for the inside and out.

Thank you for your business, Allen! Have a safe trip!

What kind of credit did you receive? I am about to do the same. I am also curious if they will do the install for my spacer kit.

 

[TravisPNW]

OEM mudflaps and floor mats installed.

I think what I like most about this vehicle is the lack of carpeting.

She goes into the shop tomorrow for 4 days for full frontal PPF along with a ceramic coat.

So that’s a loaded question and I’m sure my answer might open a can of worms and opinions.
I’m sure that the amount of credit, if any, is subject to many factors (location, type of tire, # of miles on tires, etc). Now with that said I feel like I should have tried to get more for mine since they were basically brand new Pirellis with only 500 miles on them. In the end they gave me 30 for each including the spare so $150 total plus since they are not being disposed of they didn’t charge me the disposal fee which I know isn’t much. For me it meant that I got something for them and I didn’t have to try and sell them myself.
