Not sure about Amazon but their own site has the STARVIS 2 units under a separate heading.

I think the Mangoal can be used without having auto-dimmer and has a rear option. I don't believe any aux is required as it piggybacks off one of the plugs inside the overhead console. If you go that route I would try to get the "new" version with the STARVIS 2 sensor - clarity is noticeably...

Unfortunately, I have a clutch and can't use that mount, but I think M2M makes one for the other side as well. I had not heard about the launch of D-750 - bit out of the loop, I tend to use older units - but it looks like a seriously feature-filled bit of kit for a VHF/UHF transceiver. I don't...

Must be nice! The Gmaps speed limit signs around here are wrong more often than not, if they show up at all.

Finally got the little beast back after 68 days in service at Bob Tomes Ford. Had an evap system issue fixed, and addressed SSM 53981 (window rattle), SSM 55009 (park brake function limited), and the big one, SSM 54818 - 7MT scraping/grinding noise. During this service I watched it sit for weeks...

When you have the intake plate on the back, you also get some pretty decent turbo and recirc noises piped back to the cabin. That reason is very high on my personal list!

I missed this part earlier, but FYI if you do go the full factory route, the brackets also relocate your DCM. Fits in the new spot with only minor harness movement - just the portion that's actually in the bay.

This has been on my mind as well, but I was never able to find a separate part number for Everglades breathers. I have some suspicion that the breathers are all the same, and already high-mounted. Of course, the transmission setup will be different on the auto-only 'Glades to our row-your-own...

I wonder if the GY Territory that comes on '26 is louder. I never noticed excessive noise from the earlier KO2s, just a whole lot of wind noise. You could try a 2-door. Less windows, less panel gaps, surely less noise? 🤔

Now they're telling me they're waiting on "gear selectors" which I can only assume to be shift forks. I have no idea what's going on over there anymore, but it sounds like they're going to replace every part of the transmission except for the actual gears and case before I actually get it back...

Not sure, as the factory bottle is in another location - I didn't try. I just took it as gospel from other swappers (and the Glades bottle design) that it had to go. You would at very least need to move the fill port. Best tools and method to cut the holes are still undecided for me. Can't do it...

The Everglades washer bottle is moved out of the fender well and has a depression on top for it - if you can sneak by with the factory non-Glades one then by all means do so. I don't have a good reference anymore for how a stock bay looks 😅

I will say that it didn't take as long or as much effort as I thought, but you would at least need a jack and stand to get the wheel out of the way. From there it's all plastic fasteners that you'd be well served to get replacements for beforehand. It's only held on by a few bolts once you're in...

It's not terrible but it does require you to remove your front passenger wheel and fender liner. I am not sure that you would be able to skip this step since the OEM tank may take up too much of the necessary inter-fender space. Notice in this first image how close it is to the snorkel path. If...

Removing the normal washer tank is the hard part - the Everglades bracket and tank mount in the bay and are easily accessible. NB3Z-7D438-A and NB3Z-4091-A - Everglades tank brackets N2DZ-17618-A - Everglades washer bottle assembly (includes pump) I was able to scavenge some hose from my OEM...

I love the 7MT, it's very well set up for everyday life. 33s and 4.7 gears give you a very short effective gear ratio, so you can really make the most of it. I did not have such an option, but I would recommend considering the painted hardtop. It should help with the noise, and the bare MIC top...

Have you considered some halogen auxiliary lights? You could probably put Hella 500s or KC Daylighters on top of your bumper as proper snowmelters. There are also heated-face LEDs but I haven't seen a set from a company I really trust.

Trade it in for a 7MT, of course. But really, there's not that much to gain. You will never notice the 4.46s, they're plenty for 35s and you have 10 speeds in your auto. You still have 4L, a very low 1st gear, and a torque converter, so you can go arbitrarily slow. The Sasquatch suspension and...

This really isn't proving out. A friend of mine is trying to get into the game and really wants a 7MT, but similarly equipped autos go for $10k less. High demand means nothing when met with overwhelming supply.

+1 for Eibach coilovers, I love the ride. You can definitely get a moderate lift on just pucks if you're trying to save a buck, though.
