Makes me want to go pull a plug and see what it looks like.
But I would have take off my engine cover?

Here's an excerpt from my post on my mods.......the latest thing I have done was order the folding headrests for the rear seat. The existing headrests DO NOT fold and they block most of the rear window. I ordered just the actual headrest and it comes WITHOUT the cover and costs around $100 each depending on where you buy them.

(Right) Headrest, Outer - Ford (FU5Z-78611A08-AC)
(Left) Headrest, Outer - Ford (FU5Z-78611A09-AC)


I re-used the existing headrest covers which fit VERY tight and DO NOT have the cut out for the side "push button" that you use to fold the headrest down. I actually like not having the exposed button as it looks "cleaner" with the button hidden. It still functions exactly as designed without the button cut out of the cover! and the replacements covers cost around $125 each and there's no need to buy them as my existing headrest covers fit and match my interior. THESE ARE A GAME CHANGER for me as I can see so much better out the rear window.
TROLL TROLL!
There is no mention of an engine cover in this post?

EDIT - some may not get this if they didnt see the related thread (now deleted) from last night.

And. Here we go folks. You can get a brand new one on E-bay for 299.95 plus 19.95 shipping!

The one pictured I think won't fit a Ranger, the rear boss is in the wrong place.

Looks exactly like mine.
Got it.

You are right, it is the correct cover.

I ordered the wrong cover and was thinking this was the same as the one they sent me.

I should have gone and looked at the one I had before posting.


Not that it should affect anyone considering buying the eBay one. :)

The Chinese manufacturing lines are probably gearing up now.

Though the foam in a cover from China will likely contain anti-freeze, liquid mercury, and spent nuclear reactor fuel rods.

Hey! It would be good for killing any mice that try to nest under there!
Open the hood at night & instant light. Glow in the dark. :LOL:

Just don't go to the Ford Store in Morgan Hill with your request. :)

OMG its starting again!
Why are all the know-it-alls coming out of the wordwork to say this isn't possible.
Just bc it doesn't make sense doesn't mean its not possible that a major Richard head service manager decided to interpret it that way.
Lets all save judgement until Walter gets it sorted out as I believe he will.
Or call Armando! ?
This next part is a joke for those with sensitive constitutions!
UNLESS, Walter is a super troll/genius and has hired a friend "Armando" to act like a Ford service guy and fool us all - LOL​
Walter not saying you aren't a genius!

Sorry guys last nights discussion still has me spun up!
I appreciate you!
