  1. Congrat's on the new ride . Just got mine a week ago. I split my time between NS and Toronto - might see you on the road sometime lol. Enjoy
  2. Do you have any pic's or at least a link to the rims? Thanks!
  3. I was involved in a support role for NASCAR teams for several years but am no longer in the industry. I love absolutely everything about the Edge except the crappy arse stereo they put it in. I avoided the Sony system for that reason as I realized aftermarket (ex the head unit) was the way to go lol. I'm going it in phases so I don't break the budget all at once - all 4 door speakers are being replaced on Tuesday and we'll see what difference that makes. Also having HID's installed the same day and have ordered the Bright Lites puddle lights. Also going to pull the trigger on the darker LED sport tails from them as well. Hmmmm ..... considering the original plan was to leave the Edge fully stock I'm not doing too well lol
  4. I've had ProClip mounts in all my vehicles as long as I can remember. Naturally, I went to order one when I bought my 2103 Edge. When I went to the choose the "mount" portion of it, the console mount has a warning I'd never seen before: NOTICE: User discretion is advised. Some devices could interfere with other functions." I called them and they said they didn't know exactly why it was there but if the warning was there it was for a reason. Okay. So - my question is - is anyone here using the ProClip console mount and if so DOES it interfere with anything else and if so, what does it interfere with? I'm not mounting a table on it - just my Sammy S4 - so I'm not really sure what it could interfere with but I wanted to check in here before I drop $75 for the mount and holder. Thanks in advance
  5. Sorry if this has been answered by, unfortunately, I need an answer for this one asap and I'm at work and can't do a deep dive into the forums for the answer. Stopped by to see my car audio guy this morning. Good news is that he can install HID"s in my Edge even with the DRL's I have have here in Canada. That said, the kits he uses - and swears by (300+ installs with out an issue) does not come in the 9015 bulb format my 2013 Edge SEL AWD uses. Can someone please tell me what bulb size HID kit will work with my Edge (H7, H11 etc) ??? If I can give him that info he can order the right kit for the install. Thanks in advance !!!!!
  6. Okay .... you've got my attention with $40 HID's lol. I can't seem to find a thread about them. Can you provide some insight and advise where I could get them? How hard are they to install? Are they "plug and play" for the Edge? Do many here run the kit? Sorry for all the questions but what happens when you get my attention LOL . Thanks in advance. Oh yeah - as far as mod's go .... I need to add a couple of new chrome exhaust tips to the list LOL.
  7. Thanks for the welcomes guys VERY nice looking ride Larry !!! My Edge is AWD - was on the fence about FWD vs AWD but when I found this one and it was AWD I was sold. The guy who owned it before me towed a jet ski with it (confirmed this) so it has a hitch and a trailer brake installed which will come in handy if I want to do some light towing of toys with it lol. This is my third Ford. First one was a 85 Tempo I bought in 95 to use as a winter beater one winter when I had my first vette. That one might not count because there weren't may Ford parts on it by the time I bought it lol. I also had a 2008 F-150 FX4 supercrew. Very much enjoyed the truck but I started commuting about 50 miles a day and the gas bill was killing me so I traded it. Now I live 2 miles from work I can take wherever gas mileage hit the Edge throws at me LOL. Mods have started already - small stuff. Weathertech mats are ordered as is the "stubby" antenna. Next on the list is an audio upgrade - 4 new door speakers, a sub, and a couple of amps. I'm also looking at the Bright Lights LED DRL kit as I need DRL's where I live and that setup look very cool. I also need to do something with the headlights as I need them to be brighter. I'm going to try to find some good aftermarket bulbs (no cheap blue crap lol) before I even consider HID's as I don't really want to go down that road. As I do more reading on here I'm sure the mod list will grow ................
  8. Thank you very much - that is VERY helpful and much appreciated
  9. Any updates on this? Sorry to beat a dead horse but having an update on this would be very helpful. I can't go into details now but will be able to soon. Thanks in advance
  10. Hey everyone Just picked up a 2013 Edge - been looking at them for a while. I have long history in automotive coming at it from a few different angles over the year. Cars are a hobby now and I'm looking forward to discovering the Edge. I've got a ton of reading and learning to do and this seems like a great place to do that. Only have one pic so far which was taken on the way home from picking the Edge up. Looking forward to getting to a place where I can start giving back some of what I'm about to start taking from this community.
