Do these wires have Ford Performance stamped on them? Not wiring the shuttle here. Either way, I hope to be getting them too.
It’s more complicated than you think on modern electrical architecture. I’m not around Fords everyday, but I have been around GM’s for 20 years -the days of cut and splice are over.

I believe I read somewhere....can't dig it up right now...that the aux switch option has the wiring all prerun from the switches in the overhead to the fuse block so that's were you'd make your connections. Should simplify things quite a bit.

You should be able to use the keypad to unlock the doors even with the key outside the car, and since the base comes standard with push button start you can just leave the key in your pocket the whole time. Great way to avoid having to upgrade to a higher trim for easy access, even if you do have to press a couple extra buttons.

I should get an award for actually reading all 55 pages worth of responses. My goal is base 4dr with the squatch in 4cyl. My current 2000 Nissan Frontier v6 4x4 4dr with 33’s only has 170hp, and that was probably 200k miles ago, it still has the power to get up and hit the freeway at 80mph no problem. I’m certain the 4cyl bronco even with 35’s will have plenty of power! Especially with a tune like the rangers. Not to mention I’ve replaced the twin turbos on f150’s multiple times, it’s a fricken nightmare, it’ll make a lesser tech quit if that’s his first hard job. I’d rather keep things stupid simple, this is coming from an 7 year dealer tech And 4 years of independent.

Stick shifts too?
Me neither. just was hoping for a first.
A lot of the newer sports cars know the gear or neutral position the shifter is in.
Sorry kids, the remote start is only available with the automatic transmission. If it were available on the manual I would bet it wouldn't take someone very long before they ran their Bronco right through the back wall of the garage. :)

Like I said, some new cars, the Corvette for instance, know when they are in neutral.

On reflection though, you wind up with a single point of failure with the gear sensor preventing someone from starting it in gear.
Sad we are all quickly rejecting what Boeing accepted for the 737 Max.
