  1. I purchased an aftermarket trailer hitch and all that is left is to do the wiring to the battery. I wanted to know what route have some of you used (without having the wire exposed under the frame) to get it to the battery. Or have some of you spliced the power from another source (ie: Power Liftgate, rear 12v plug)
  2. I have this exact same problem w/my 2013 Limited. We had a heavy rain fall last night and I found a small puddle of water in my two cup holders this morning.
  3. Nope. and I have BLIS so I can imagine a dealer replacement would cost much more that it's worth the annoyance to me.
  4. Tonight leaving the gym I noticed that one of the small amber bulbs in my turn signal light (for oncoming cars) is burnt. Has anyone ever changed just the light unit on this w/o changing the whole mirror housing? Here's a stock photo for reference...
  5. I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I've tried to reach out to Dan via email but he's not answering - my driver side light of the HID conversion kit stopped working. A side from taking everything apart and swapping between driver side vs passenger side - how can I pinpoint if the problem is the bulb, or the ballast?
  6. IMO I would just go with Dan's kit. Simple to install on our Canadian Edge's.
  7. I ended up choosing Dan's kit - very happy with it and the light output is simply great. Only trouble I had a was a broken clip on the ballast connector that I'm waiting upon Dan for an answer on replacing.. I used the fender locations for grounds on Dan's kit. And being a CDN Ford Edge, I needed to install the harness. The resistors were a little tricky to place as they really do get hot (accidentally held one!) and I didn't want it to melt anything. Passenger side there is a nice spot just towards the firewall where a zip tie can hold down the resistor near the resevoir. For the driver side, I found two holes located on the frame just below the air box that would take a zip tie with some bending + trial and error and it fit there easily. How did you explain it to your dealer to have it reprogrammed? My dealer tech is dismissing me by saying there is no method to change the DRL sequence..
  8. I'm just wondering how did other Canadian owners explain to their local dealer that they wanted to have the DRL re-programmed? Here in Montreal, I'm pretty sure the dealerships (a) wouldn't know what i'd be talking about ( be weary of doing this for 'safety concerns'
  9. I Have the same vehicle as you. I put 17" edge sel rims on as I didn't want to have to worry about offset and Center rings. Found a pair for cheap (550 shipped) from eBay. The tires are blizzaks that were once on my trailblazer SS, no rubbing at all
  10. I have a 2013 Limited and I'm thinking about changing the rear chrome trim on the trunk with a tuxedo black version (similar to the Sport model) . Does anyone here know how to remove the moulding? Most likely I will be ordering a replacement part from ebay and having a local paint shop spray it for me. Unless someone is able to point me towards an already painted one...
  11. Mine too. Usually just position it a bit and it re-locks into place
  12. Thanks. I took advantage and ordered a Draw-Tite from AutoAnything last night. With their coupons it was the cheapest I could find!
  13. Before buying the programming tool, I would try this approach first: Source: http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=301692 And here's a great set of 17" Ford wheels for winter: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SET-OF-4-FORD-EDGE-FLEX-17-INCH-FACTORY-OEM-WHEEL-RIMS-244-/261267872043?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Wheels&hash=item3cd4c7592b&vxp=mtr (No worries about offset, bore size, etc..)
  14. What is the tab used for on the Draw-Tite hitch? Is this where we'd attach wiring harness to??
  15. I have the same Edge as you do and I will be swapping my 20" summers out for 17" winter tires. Just remember this, the Edge does also come with 17" wheels in other trims - so there should be no problem at all. This is the one time I would say listen to your parts guy. He's saving you money. As for rims, try your luck on ebay. I was able to pick up some 2012 17" Edge rims for 300$+100$ shipping to Montreal.
  16. Wanted to know, in the image is your grill already PD'ed or is that just the look of the primed grill?
  17. Just realized that OEM's are 245-50-20...guess I won't have a problem with the width.
  18. Just bought a 2013 Edge last month and I was taking a look at my old winter tires from my Trailblazer SS - they are 245/65-17,, I understand that the recommended size is 235/65-17, but if I can I would really not want to have to buy new rubber ( it's for the winter...). Will they fit?
  19. Also looking for one..anyone have 1 available?
