Opened the back hatch to discover that my passenger side defroster cable had disconnected from the rear glass.
Have an appointment at the dealership to repair.
From what I've gathered from sources here on the forum some dealerships will attempt to reattach to the glass, others have replaced the entire rear glass unit.

Update on the Rear Defrost Issue- Dealership attempted to resolder the cable part back on the glass. It came off within 1 hour of being home.
Dealership has now ordered a new piece of glass for the back hatch.

Installed IAG Rear Cap Rail Protectors. Fitment and function is top notch.

Installed Smart Home Lifter in Garage for removing the back cap.
Instructions were pretty straighforward. Biggest challenge was getting the lift rails level to balance the weight of the cap.

The Bestop Sunrider is the best accessory for the Bronco I've bought.

I really want that SmarterHome system and my finger has been hovering over the BUY NOW button for the last three weeks.

Are you guys aware of any discount codes or upcoming Fourth of July sales that would allow me to save a little money?

They gave me a token $25 off coupon which was advertised on the website. I think the price is a bit high for what I'm getting, but so is everything else these days...

Installed the Auto Stop Eliminator. Easy installation and works fantastic. No alternation to the BCM, just remembers the last state of the Auto Start Stop Button.
I wasn't going to do this at first, but i've had several situations where I had to accelerate fast out of the stop and the whole process just felt clunky and in a way dangerous. Found myself turning it off everytime.
I'm all for "green save the environment, be responsible,etc.." But the auto stop start "feature" is just plain stupid and provides diminishing returns.

Cup holder inserts... You can tell that they were not allowed to use the FORD OEM Bronco logo. Still like them and functional..

Seven Sparta Grab Handles for front and back. Realized the need for these the last time I had top and doors off in full safari mode.
