What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🚿🛠

[CarbonGrayBronco]

Added hood struts and adjusted the hood bumpers. Noticed the hood was digging into the rubber on both sides but worse on the driver’s where something had stuck underneath the hood into the paint. Whatever it was chipped the clear coat under the hood so now that’s added to the list of things to do…

Cleaned up the Aux switch wiring.

Cleaned up the Aux switch wiring.

Clean, I like that! What did you use and how did you mount it?

I found a 1 in-1 out, 6 connecter version of this:

Mounting was a challenge because the factory wiring is so short. I had to rig this. Not pretty, but it works. The box itself is very light so you don't need much to hold it in place.

Today I received a whole new wiring harness and a new light switch for my Suparee Helm 7 driving lights. I broke a tab on the original switch. Luckily Suparee was understanding. They sent me a whole new wiring harness and switch for free, even though I only needed the switch. Now I have high beams and low beams.

And on top of that I took the top off and installed my Bimini top I picked up from Amazon on Prime day

Now that is awesome customer service from Suparee! I ordered a storage bag from their Amazon store for the 2 roof panels. Super affordable and looks decent. Re: new harness, all I can say is that is how it should be, unfortunately not always the case. Been requesting a replacement tail light harness from Form for over a week. They are unable to ship one out as they do not stock any harnesses... "They are prepackaged by their supplier" and they do not manufacturer them either (Form LIghting/Diode Dynamics). They have "escalated" and hopefully can make this right. Asked if they could send out a new set with harness in box, I would return originals. Removing flares body panels 4-5 times has become cumbersome on a 2 month old vehicle to try different recommendations etc. Pretty patient. but this is pushing it, had to put original tails back in. Always awesome to hear stories like yours with Suparee customer service. I standy by those companies who take care of their customers/clients and do what is needed to resolve an issue of their making not the purchaser.

Ugh. I hope they make it right quickly!

I have dealt with 2 different companies where I had broken items/issues. LED Factory Mart sent me a new headlight to replace the one that had a broken connector. No need to send the old one back either. And these aren’t cheap items. Suparee and LED Factory Mart both have my support for doing me right.

Thank You Nit, I seriously do too! I was going to purchase Morimoto but there are some issues with their tails for those that have stock tails like I do. Some are on their 4th replacement upgraded tails (I believe it is only limited to those with stock halogen tails, want to make that clear and not disparage them in any way). I wanted to avoid that for time, for ease, and to avoid removing the plastic painted panels and rear flares multiple times. So much for that wishful thinking.

Newer to the site, it wasnt today but last 2 months of ownership: Ford floor mats purchased before finding out about 3W. 3W cargo and rear seat back mats (actually purchased the complete set, it was cheaper than getting cargo etc from Ford). Really like the 3W cargo, the pic of the Bronco is unlike any other floormats I have had, they did a nice job and super affordable for the whole set especially on Prime Day. Ford hood struts, they are made by Redline, awesome company I have used before. The struts are extended lift so gives alot more room and access to engine. J&L catch can, another awesome company and customer service, quality is top notch. Kicker speakers in dash and kick panel. SSV speaker pods with Kicker LED marine speakers, that was a fun one to install.. Wheels/Tires, Turn Offroad Tire Relocation kit. Mabett front door storage replacements in place of the stock door nets, super cheap and plenty space for water bottle/coffee mug etc. Fumoto Valve. 2080 3m matte black wrap on hood "hump/bump" Form LED tails, removed until harness is replaced/fixed. I may have missed an item. Bronco mods are addicting and expensive. They are also satisfying and can be stress relieving (not the LED Form tails thus far). I have always done mods to my vehicles, never this many in 2 months on a brand new vehicle. 1st vehicle I have been stoked about in awhile.

It sounds like you are like me. I went nuts my first few months of ownership on ordering things.

I had issues with LED twilights too. I order twice from eBay. First order was obviously used returned lights. The second set had a bad reverse LED

I ended up going with Amazon and thus set worked perfectly. Plus it comes with resistors so no messing around in Forscan. Here is a link

Raptor lookalike on Amazon

 

[GRNMACHINE]

Yes Nit, I agree with you, went a little nuts indeed. And still have a list of things I want to do. I like those tails, look very much like the Raptor. AND super affordable. I did not last one other of my favorite additions, the Ford OEM rock rails. Scored some like New Take Offs. They are solid and beefy and cover the pinch weld area. Very lucky and fortunate to find them, price was great, and all the hardware too. Ford did a nice job designing and making them. Sometimes you just cant beat OEM.

Love seeing all the Bronco action, keep em coming

Some side panel graphics from underground graphics.

Who knows... may even wash it one of these days.

Now gotta' badge it up and find some polished side-steps that fit. (if anyone knows of any)

One thing I've liked since getting it done - I've gotten so many compliments and confused folks "is it... is... is it a new one? Or an old one restored?" Which is exactly the route I want to be on.

Having the base kind of feels like a bare-bones resto-mod, without needing to know sh** about cars
