@futat2 what is your take on the Baja Designs Backup light kit? Was it worth the money?Today was a good day and got a few parts in. Got my Switch-Pro SP9100 and mounting parts, Baja Designs revers light set, Ford hood deflector, and the Ford Pass side swing out tool box (no pic already installed before I thought about it).
Yes I like the kit, i also really like Baja Designs lights and use them whenever I can. I even put them on my bike.
Didn't actually receive it in the mail but ordered this smart battery charger and maintainer from Ford accessories through my local dealer. I was trying to use up my FordPass points and saw this on anther thread thanks to @Figarou. Called the dealer Friday at 9:45am and they called me at 1:15pm to say it was already in. Picked it up this morning and had no trouble using my points,I think with tax it was around 29,000 points.

It's nice they give you the option to mount the pigtail to the battery post or just use the clamps.
do the "velcro" connectors seem sturdy? Do you have a guesstimate of the load they might handle?MOLLE Tech Pouches from BuiltRight Industries. Installed behind rear seats, using it to store all the stuff i had back there (recovery gear, tie down ropes, some basic tools, tie wraps ...). They look great, sturdy and well designed.
Hows the squish factor behind the seat, is there enough room to fill the bags with stuff and still secure the seat without crunching the contents of the bags ?MOLLE Tech Pouches from BuiltRight Industries.

So far so good, looks like anything you could fit in it will have the room for the seat to lock. It’s not like the bags can fit your kitchen sink ?
Let’s start with i don‘t work for BuiltRight Industries, also if you go on their site they dont show these Molle bags being used inside the trucks, they are attached outside in the truck bed fastened to their proprietary bedside rack system. I went ahead and decide to combine two of their products: the Velcro Tech with their MOLLE Bags. This combination worked great for my use of the bags (off road recovery gear and stuff like that).
Wow you went above and beyond. Thanks. The reason i asked was because you mentioned recovery gear, and some of the recovery stuff i have seems kinda heavy (like my tow strap and bow shackles).Let’s start with i don‘t work for BuiltRight Industries, also if you go on their site they dont show these Molle bags being used inside the trucks, they are attached outside in the truck bed fastened to their proprietary bedside rack system.

Now you are asking how much weight the Velcro product can hold, i never thought i would have any heavy stuff in it but now i am curious. So i put a 10 pound plate in the small bag and it held up; then i put 15 pounds of plates in the larger bag and that also held up. So this is not a manufacturer approved weight test, just one DIY enthusiast. I hope this helped.
Yea, but you are showing him they will hold those weights. If they don't when under stress, then that is incorrect info. But whatever. TETO... Have fun....
