I put these on today, they didn't have instructions and I couldn't even find pics of them installed on a Ranger. I went with the exterior mounted ones so they wouldn't ruin my tint. Not sure how I feel about them. All I see is a shitty install that's probably wrong lol...and a fat guy taking pics of my truck.

The contour of the reflection off the door is like a Fun House mirror.

Yes, you absolutely can! If you go to ScanGauge's website they have a list of Ford/Lincoln supplementary codes for a whole variety of things and if my memory serves, the one that works for the Ranger's trans temp is the 4th or 5th one down in that category. :thumbsup:

Other info as well is trial and error on a list of codes, but they're in there you just have to find them.
Regarding the ScanGauge, how do you enter the Ford supplementary codes or are they there already. I monitor boost temperature miles per gallon.

Not a problem,especially since you already dealt with the vendor and it fits.Half the stuff I get from eBay comes from China. :) I'm still deciding if I want to go this route but a good price could sway me.
Hell, I bought my GFB+ from China with no issues.

AliExpress has great pricing. Buying stuff that Walmart would import anyway.

For those who want black trim.Chinese New year starts on 25 Jan for a couple weeks.

I installed one of my Christmas presents - New side moldings: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NS9CFWP

I'm pretty happy with how they came out - I think they look factory and will hopefully help prevent door dings - I saw I have a new ding on the drivers side rear door.... The truck is filthy but I cleaned up a strip to install these:

I think you and I are the only ones who put side molding on our trucks.. One of the better exterior mods I've done. My truck is filthy as well. It's been raining on and off. I'll take it to the car wash soon enough.

What length did you cut to? I may need to borrow this idea for my truck
Right at 62" it would have play wihtout the foam, which holds it firmly in place. I didn't think to measure the height but a 2x8 or wider would work too

That's what I meant the GFB+. I think Panda one is over $100 aren't they?
That link takes me to the sign in page. :crazy:
Try this one. On that page you can check where you wanted it to come from I didn't see the United States you can actually have this mailed to you from somewhere in the US. Somebody bought a crapload of them. It says Mercedes Benz or Volvo actually it's a Mercedes part that were taking out and replacing. I believe the turbo is designed by Mercedes-Benz and Volvo which is connected to Ford


$139 part from US vendors

I should have taken a picture...

We got a rather large dump of snow in the last 24 hours. Had to have been over a foot. Snow was up to the centerline of the wheel! 4 hours later trucks are dug out and the driveway is clear. I'm pooped.

That one works thanks! This just drops right in right? I saw on another post you had to pull a piece out with needle nose pliers? Was there a noticeable difference in the turbo lag?

Finally, got around to wrapping the door/tailgate handles and front Ford logo to match the truck. Also put some decals down for the sill plate just to prevent them from scratching up.
