nice... if you really want it fully murdered out, the logo emblems gotta go.. maybe tint those as well
-
can someone please post and have some pics of all the interior an exterior lights that can be change with LED's with the part#, and web site you got it from. and if any difficulty occurred..... Thank You.
at the risk of sounding rude, everything you seek is in this thread. many times over
links to buy from, photos of bulbs, bulb sizes, install stories, etc etc
just search or read through

this was not standard, must have been added by dealer. give them a call and if they lost, a good tire place CAN, sadly but true, remove them
-
my only problem has been the fact that they raised rates, took away the FREE internet listening with your account and made that a pay service as well, and added that nice "US music royalty fee"
I am going from 3 subs to 1 in jan 2010

Given that I was not able to find any loudest horn till now, I decided that instead, and given that our vehicle horns are just on the right side, why not installing another set on the left side, that will for sure double the loudness, but I may require a wire harness for that purpose, I do not want to be "creative"...does anybody knows the part number for the horn wire harness, to see if at least I could get the connectors...???
I second what securinu already said.. add another horn set, get ready to wire and add relay to do it right, not piggy back your existing wiring harness
but more interesting is that there is no guarentee "installing another set on the left side, that will for sure double the loudness" - on the contrary, this could have adverse effects unless you do your due diligence. unless you use a set that works with the tone/notes of your current horn, you could end up getting something taht when fired togther, sounds like a disaster. this is exactly why there are generally 2 horns of 2 different notes. if fired alone, they are weak, but when fired together, they work in tandem to create a range that works. you go arbitrarily adding a second set of horns and ughhh it could be a mess
you are a prime candidate for air horns, you want LOUD, and if your going to say you want the path of least resistance, but then talk about adding a second set of horns, and then about sourcing out relays and wire harness, etc... just get a darn air horn kit and get on down the road with it - you could have had air horns in by now and disconnected the stock horns and been blasting to your hearts desire

As far as I can see my phone is not listed... T-Mobile G1.
does not mean in any way it will not work, it just means (1) not "officially" tested and (2) might work but some functions - like text message reading - will not be available. MANY phones not on the list work fully or in part.

OMG don't let Akriby read this as he will have a fit.. doing something and interacting with your navi head unit while actually driving OMG - the insanity!!!
-
is the update giving me something I did not have before or is it just an update to keep the version current,
it is not an "an update to keep the version current" it was release just to give you the 2 new functions you never had before: 911 and Heath Reports... you do not even 'need' this and it did not improve anything, but added those 2 features.

watch the little tiny set screw that attaches the key blade to the remote as mine recently started to work out and I almost lost it.. lock tight solved it
-
search around on adding LED lights, several of us have added them under the little pocket, in the center console, in the glove box, in the cup holders... these threads can help "illuminate" how and where with picts
-
and most importantly, they all have built in resistors (not load resistors for flashing).
correct me if I am wrong, but there are different resistor options that are useful..
what they sell have resistors, but according to them, that is to address polarity issues in case you install them wrong to polarity. that is nice, but as I see it.. no much of a big deal as youo just flip them around and viola.
resistor issues I see that are more valuable are those that smooth out load/curent variations - something that could fry a bulb - and they do not mention that and I think that is the more key issue to address for resistor son LED bulbs
lastly, I am not sure these 2 are the same or separate types of resistors.

very nice... the 1 big envy for me is the OEM navi - I like that
silver is always good color

License plate: 194/168 x 2
Rear courtesy: ~39mm festoon (HOW MANY?? not my car, cant go out and check, is it 3?) x3
Front map/dome: 2825 or equivalent (how many?) x2
see above
while your at it, do the cargo area bulb of course, also a festoon, x1, also 39mm - I did one that had 9 LEDs on it in square to really fill that bulb space and throw light

WHEN I GOT MY EDGE I TAPPED OFF THE BACK, SANDED WITH 400 GRIT, AND ROOLED ON BLACK HERCULINER ! ! LOOKS SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
solid idea.. herculiner is pretty bomber and looks good. a pict would be nice. and you can diff colors of the stuff
-
sorry, only have charcoal part #s - but I wonder of both colors use the same colored covers?
-
Think stylus & it comes across a little classier. :yup:
LOL good one
did you write that with marker on the stick

of course I was joking
as for air horns.. the compressor, which comes with, is a piece of cake. self contained. if you do new horns, you would have to do horns, likely the relays, wiring and so adding the compressor is not much more.

I have the one in the upper left.. not on my edge mind you. inexpensive, easy to install and plenty of HONK

dealer claims mine came in today.. cross my fingers they ordered the right 2 parts as you never know. Guess I will post back up and if it is correct, will add photos of B/A
-
oh yeah.. your the dude that uses a stick to push his navi buttons
btw... cool mod, something new.

get something like this and you can have musical horns, record your own, or have a PA to yell at people
anyway, I have replaced horns - as yes, there are 2 in your car, a high and low on opposite sides of the radiator area typically. I replaced on in my FJ40 for air horns... no missing them, but it has a Chevy 350 so loud engine to overcome.
tapping into your current horn relay/wiring is really the tricky part.
can't recall seeing anyone here yet do horn swap

did you all see this thread?

as an example... so many people have had "the burning smell issue" PTU seal - the #1 topic here (32 pages, 57000 views & imagine those that do not visit this site and just go to the dealer) and I wonder why this warranted a letter, first time I have ever heard of this heater core issue, and that major seal issue costing them - and owners - a ton of money to fix, did not?
seems if anything should get a letter and warranty extension, it should be because of the PTU seal issue.
-
got it..
always interesting what makes it get to the point to send a letter. there have been all kinds of issues, as with any car, wonder why this one warranted a letter

yeah, post up exactly which ones you got that fit: which Ford model did you use, and those are flat black with what color text? chrome?
