If you want to "mod" the mod and make it unique, tape off the mountain logo area and rattle can it your Ford Blue...looks good when you do (my opinion of course)

My Putco lower grill has been on all of 2 months tops. Already have 4 rock hits on it. That’s 4 rocks that didn’t make it to the intercooler or radiator! ?

Do the vents just pop off? Anything special about removal?

They pop out and you have to transfer the clips over

Still moving along with the project. Was fiddling around with the animation option in software, figure I would share.

Scale is pretty accurate on components, I basically map it out by eye and use manufacturer listed measurements to best of my ability. So far example the Diode Dynamics rack light is thier 50" version. Likeness isn't 100%, but mocked up pretty close down to the brackets. Pardon a lot of the sectional lines - making a large uniform component is easiest when I make a section of it, then duplicate it ie; mapping out ten 3/8" slotted cuts then duplicating it times seven is waaaaaaay less time consuming. The Diode Dynamic Stage Series bars are super easy to create, cause they are sectioned off in 6.x inch sections from the factory depending if you get 50, 42, 30, 18, or 6 inch versions. I sort of mock flood lenses vs. spot lenses with what textures are available and manipulate them when I can.

They are smaller than Ford stock speaker, but speaker grill edge will slip under mount cover ridge and a slight twist tightens down firmly. Might have to wiggle speaker a tad to get it to slip into place.

FoD, did you use the included crossovers, or just connect the tweets directly to the existing factory wiring. It's not extremely clear in the instructions, but I don't see them using the wired crossovers in the installation.

Also, do you have a scab? I don't have B&O, but I have all the upgrades so *assume* I have an app. I haven't looked yet, but are these the colored wires you have?

Left front door tweeter (with amp) positive (+): blue/gray, negative (-): green/brown
Right front door tweeter (with amp) positive (+): green/violet, negative (-): white/orange

No, did not use c rossovers, just cut connectors, joined wiring. I have a super crew with nonB/O radio and no amp, so used base wiring per instruction sheet for my setup. Read on another thread where crossovers were in Ford setup already.

I put some ditch lights on. Wiring them is a job for another day.

These come with 6 different color trims. I may switch to black. They are cheap ($70) Tractor Supply lights but a guy I know has 6 on his Tractor/Mower and gave them good recommendations for his rough use.

They have connectors out of the lights about 5 inches long and another two that connect to the lights. I have to use my own wire for the rest.

I love that red around your grille how did u get that is there a link?

The lights come with 6 different colors you can switch out. I got them at Tractor Supply. I have aux switches and they do not come with a switch but you can order separately.

# 1169555 is needed. For two lights, a Y slitter- # 1168855 is also needed to connect with the wiring harness.
