Iāve not had that issue and it has worked very well for me from the Aux switch. Power from an Aux switch actually comes from a relay located near the battery. So, Aux power is pretty close to straight from the battery. There is no reason why power from Aux would have more of a voltage drop...
That Pro Clip does look nice and puts the Mic in a good spot. If it just clips on and no screws, that is a very good option and definitely something Iād look at if I want to use my top rail for something else. With the Mic on the passenger side, I did see online a short Ethernet extension that...
Iāve installed a few of these radios in other vehicles and always had an issue with the Mic mount using the OEM Or other clip. Never had an adhesive mount work either. Would go off reading and inevitably, the mic would bounce of even the OEM clip. Tried some other magnetic mounts but they...
Well, I lost track of the hours it took figuring out the bracket and numerous installs and removals. But, once I had everything ready, Iād say it took about 2 hours to install radio, install jack in center console and run the antenna wire through drivers side and to passenger mirror. Wiring it...
Iāve not had that issue. The radio has worked very well with no static. I installed a MXT275 in my son-in-laws Jeep, and weāve used them on trails and highway without issue. At about 8 miles apart, son-in-law will start to sound a little staticky but, he says I still sound really clear...
No trimming of the glove box needed. Making the modifications I did to the M2M bracket and turning the radio sideways, it fits in and clears the glove box.
I would think it should work. When I tested my setup on the bench first, I just grabbed a 12ā Cat5e cable I had laying around and it worked just fine.
Ah, didn't think about MT. I assume that grommet is where the clutch pedal goes through? I was originally going to go through the grommet left of it where the hood release cable goes through. Would have been tight. Wish Ford would have put a grommet on the passenger side. But, can't...
It is just to the left of the Brake mount. It is the oval one in the picture below with the single antenna wire going through it. The center of the bottom picture shows it in the engine compartment.
Press it through from the engine compartment into the drivers foot well. It is solid so...
There were several places that I looked at and would have worked. On the drivers side of the center console, in the dash just below the start button, in the pop out panel below the radio and above the center console. Even looked at just to the left of the glove box. Lots of space in those...
Iām pretty particular (ok, anal) about installing items in my vehicle and want as much of a factory look as possible. Because of that, I spent a lot of time (admittedly too much!) redoing this install so I could get to a point that required minimal modifications. Standard install with the M2M...
We did the trail starting from the south end off Willow Springs road and north to Tower Arch. (Make sure you stop at Eye of the Whale Arch! Near the beginning of the Tower Arch trail. Great place to explore!). From the south end to Tower Arch not to many challenging obstacles. The pictures I...
Finally got out last weekend and got to do the Tower Arch trail in Arches National Park. Beautiful day and varied terrain from sand dune, wash, rock crawling and Baja running! Got to try out all the Goat modes and see what it can do! This BRaptor rocks! Sorry, didnāt get too many action...
I did the 10mm film. Used it on other vehicles and very happy with it. In fact, I had a deer run into the side of my other vehicle and slid across the hood and off the other side. Vehicle had the 10mm XPEL Ultimate Plus on it. Broken side mirror and multiple deep scratches across the fenders...
Thanks for the link to the windshield protection kit. Will have to check it out. I didnāt want rock chips from the road or trail āpinstripesā either.
My original quote was for $7000. I worked with the shop to reduce the price. I didnāt care if you could see some lines. Didnāt have them remove door handles, badges, etc. Saved them a lot of shop time. Main reason I opted to skip the rear door. Alot of time to cut and do the rear door for...
Code Orange and had full body (well, except rear door) wrapped with XPEL PPF and Flares done in XPEL Stealth. The glossy PPF over the graphics made them stand out more and I think look better.
Recently picked up my Raptor and first thing I wanted was a PPF wrap to protect it on trails. I went with a full wrap of grill, headlights, front fenders, hood, windshield frame, doors and rear quarter panels. Left of the rear door as it was pretty expensive to do (get everything removed) and...
