    If you haven't visited recently take a look at Gadget's Edge Mods page: https://www.gadgetjq.net/edge
    The front page has been freshened up and there's a ton of information added frequently to the "Say What? and "Odds n Ends" pages. 
    The Center Console Renovation page now has measurements for the compartment dividers so you can create a copy without all the effort of taking your own measurements and making patterns. 

     

    As always the site is totally free of advertising, cookies or membership requirements.  Have fun!

     

     

    Are you the same Gadget from yotatech back in the day?

  2. Just installed a Draw-Tite 75234 that I got from Amazon for $141 with free shipping. I also purchased a T connector wiring kit for $55 made by Tekonsha. It connects without cutting any wires.

    Draw-Tite is made by Cequent, which labels them for Hidden Hitch, Draw-tite and Reese. Installation did take a couple hours having the back end up on ramps. You do need a 5.5 and 10mm socket, but I didn't need a torx bit. I think that's only for the Lincoln model. Somebody posted they had to remove the exhaust rings? I don't think that was in the instructions. I just pulled the plastic fascia a little and the exhaust dropped down. Not real happy that the hitch only has 8" of ground clearance. There is plenty of room to move the hitch up, just requires some cutting of the fascia. I've seen other year models that have the fascia cut for the hitch and they look fine.

    Also the hole I use in the picture is a lot closer and easier to feed the wire through. I only takes a couple passes with a file to allow the large washer to fit.

    Also found a wiring harness on the passenger sire, see picture. I wonder if it was for the factory trailer wiring kit.

     

    How's the functionality of the sensor to open the tailgate with your foot with the hitch installed?
