Finally got everything fitted! The back row with the exception of the armrest/cupholder area is MUCH simpler to install. Almost have to do a 90% tightness on the front bucket seats, leave it to settle for a few days, and then do a final adjustment/tightening.

Nice job! I was cussing up a storm trying to get the bottoms on mine. First I had absolutely no love in disconnecting the stoopid air bag connector. I pushed, I pulled, I cussed, but nada, never got it off. It would have helped on mine for sure ...

Then threading the straps must have been God's way of punishing all my life's misdeeds, man that was more swearing then the entire Seventh Fleet! =p

The backs were only slightly less frustrating. Of course, I was pretty clueless with the patience of an ice cube in Hell.

So big hats off to you and they look great! =)

Glad I wasn't the only one who had trouble fitting the bottom covers on. Lots of caught hangnails, scraped knuckles, and swearing here too.
The overly long hook and loop straps on the sides didn't help either. They virtually got stuck to all the other straps. The instructions were generic at best. Steps and designs that simple didn't exist were on the sheet. The back panels and headrests were practically tighter than a snare drum at first!
All in all, it ended up working out.

I just left the airbag crap in place and routed my seat cover straps around em. And taking off the plastic panels on the sides helps quite a bit.

Received my Tremor fender flares. Had expiring ford pass points I had to use before end of the month saved $200.00.
Nice! I’m sitting on a set of these too. I hope to install in the next couple of weeks.

I didn’t realize points expire…after how long? I was trying to save up for a set of wheels…

I wasn’t aware they expired either. But I bought my truck May 2020. So maybe after 3 1/2 years

Always the mature one, I was looking for something for my center dash tray. I often have a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle there but wanted something more interactive.

Kate may never want to ride in Soupie again!

Best $7.65 spent on Soupie! =p

I have the same goat but it's on my work desk!
Sadly, the voice box is dead. I've had it for over a year now. I tried cleaning the internals, swapping the battery..but alas. Now it goes: "A-A-Ah ahh h-h"

Mail lady just dropped off my BatteryMinder desulfator. Got it on sale from Battery Mart for $65 plus postage. Now to install it and adjust my SOC in Forscan to start fixing my battery issues. I've had ASS turned off for some time.

Thank you Ford for designing a truck that doesn't like short trips.

I installed one of these and am going through the process of learning how to use it in relation with testing and charging the battery to keep it at the maximum level to maintain long battery life. I have ASS bypassed with an Autostop Eliminator and always keep it in the off position.

Got my chase light bar... Once installed I'll be an official mall crawler.

https://xpriteusa.com/products/offroad-rear-chase-led-light-bar-36-rx-g7

Going to wire it up to turn signals etc, as well as a chase light. They have a few flashing patterns built into the light I can trigger, which is nice.

Now to find some tail light plugs so I can make a harness without splicing into the harness...

Has anyone used the SPV performance wiring kits?

theoretically, you can depin the stock connector and repin the OE wire with the new wire. I thought about doing that, but just spliced into the OE harness instead...
