Good stuff...but the box looks the same on a Lux package...does it defintialy contain radar in the Lux, or is it somewhere else or camera based from the rear view mirror?Lucky for you I don't have much going on today. This took less than 10 minutes to strip down. Large plastic House does not contain any sensors. Just the servo motors for the shutters. So this can definitely be discarded on packages from high on down without reason for concern.

Crazy. Ford kept telling us that the Badlands trim didn't have active shutters, but there they are.
Thank God.
Definitely deleting the grille shutters and its servo then, wanna get as much air into the Intercooler as possible
Thanks bud, I did not know that.no .. the shutters actually are designed to funnel air right into the IC. When you remove them .. air will leak around the edges.
There is a rubber boot around the plastic shutter housing to keep air from leaking out. But if you ditch the entire housing you lose the boot and would have to make your own. Kinda dumb that Ford blocked a quarter of the intercooler with the acc module housing.no .. the shutters actually are designed to funnel air right into the IC. When you remove them .. air will leak around the edges.

There is 1 reason why one would remove the shutters which is to make room for a thicker inter-cooler.
And it will surely be much better than the factory intercooler.
I could easily be wrong, but it looks like the Badlands radiator also has shutters in the photos.No no. There are 2 shutters. One for the radiator and one for the intercooler. I believer every truck comes with the IC shutters BUT the bad lands is missing the Radiator shutters. I hope this makes sense.
