What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

[Mrmike]

My new outer banks won't be built till November 21, but I'm starting to buy things for it already. I ordered a center console dash storage tray today, and tomorrow I'm going to the dealer to order an engine cover and rear bumper protector. I'll be getting hood struts, center console mat protectors, center console organizer tray, Weathertech floor liners, Steeda strut tower brace, and a craven stubby antenna. Once the vehicle arrives it gets tinted door windows, tinted eyebrow on windshield, ambient lighted cupholders if not equipped, black overlays for Bronco badging and Tectito side marker lights. Final change will be the chrome verde mag wheels. I'm buying my Outer Banks for looks and will probably never go off roading. I like my vehicles to stand out from the rest and hopefully this one will.

If I had the wheels/tires here, instead of sitting at Discount Tire, my pile of pieces would take up just about as much garage space as the vehicle will.

Found out catch and release is easy
really easy when they're not biting

Isn’t that why it’s called “fishing” instead of “catching”?

Looks fantastic! Where did you get the roof basket and how does the spare mount on top?

Wildroad Roof Rack Cargo Basket and Yakima spare tire carrier for roof racks.
Both available via Amazon.

I did a few things this past week. First, I fixed a chip in my windshield with a kit I picked up at one of the auto parts places in town. It worked surprisingly well - I've never used one before but felt this might be a route to try so I don't have a claim against my insurance every month (I had to replace my windshield at 3 weeks in as that one ran immediately after impact... I've had the car a little over two months). Both were instances of rocks getting thrown from vehicles in adjoining lanes on the highway, not from vehicles in front of me. Don't know how to avoid that problem in Colorado haha.

Second, I finally got my GMRS radio antenna routed - I'll post what I did on the receiver/antenna thread to keep stuff in the same place. So that's ready for me to install my receiver this week.

Third, I spent a few hours and mapped out all the fuses in my car on whether they are always on or switched on. I've seen quite a few posts here mention a few different ones, but I've not seen a post where someone mapped all of them. I've had the benefit of getting that information from others on other cars I've had (my CR-V and VW Jetta) so I'll set up a thread for that info. That should make getting my parking mode on the dashcam and the power to my GMRS radio pretty simple this week.

I did go out and have some fun though - finally got some dirt on the tires.

Pulled the front doors apart and dynamat all the inside and added new 2 ways. Buzzing is gone. And the B&O is actually loud with good speakers.
There’s wire looms between the panels that clip into parts on the inner panel with a metal and plastic clip, mine were loose causing some of the buzzing/rattling. Might help you guys with similar sounds.

I installed the AVS "Bugflector II" last night, guess I get to find out how well it holds up to some of these Ian winds.

Today, I went to Silverdale and while I didn’t do anything to my Sport, I did follow this F250 towing a Jeep up the highway. It just struck me as funny. For those that will say pics or it didn’t happen, here you go.

Is that the bolt on one and was it difficult?

I really like those marker lights. Is the white wired to the headlights/DRL’s? Could you ask hubby if they were difficult and how long it took?

It took 30-45 mins. Yes, White is wired to DRL & Amber to turn signal.

There is a video of installation I found on the forum, it was helpful. Pic of wiring below from video.

It was not terribly difficult, my wife helped install it and it only took about 10 minutes.

You remove 6 of the plastic push pins that hold the hood seal in place. Then, at those locations, the Deflectors mounting tabs slide between the seal and the hood where it is secured with provided self taping screws into the holes that were you previously removed the plastic push pins from.

Most confusing part was which direction you spin the two rubber topped hood stops so it will close properly.
