I'd have to agree on the factory lights in bith our 03 being pretty bright assuming housings are in good shape and aimed properly I have no issues seeing 1/4 mile up the county road that heads to our house, snow visibility has also never been an issue, even with the insane amount of deer that...
There were cheaper options available but I spent about $135 on it, the model i purchased had adjustable volume and extra fittings for a variety of uses. There were several under $100. We do the majority of work on our vehicles so for me it justified the expense as it's something I'll...
I purchased an 03 with 205k almost 4 years ago. It's at 251k and change now. It's been one of the most reliable vehicles I've owned. Only bested by my regal that was bought with 73k old lady miles. I've done the basic maintenance. Fluids, oil, brakes, tires. The only failures I've...
The rear actuator for the heat, assuming your hand fits is accessible by removing the tray on the passenger side back there and squeezing in. If you can get it into the upper vent mode just simply unplug the power and it'll stay put. Both our expy and navigator are this way and have been for...
250k on my 03 and original as far as I know with rather thorough maintenance records. Now the u joint on the front drive shaft is another story. It bit the dust yesterday, fortunately didn't cause any other damage, failed just enough to make a good racket but the drive shaft is still attached...
It's not that it's difficult to remove but it takes a decent amount of time and to replace a light that will make a near 0 impact it's more effort than I'd certainly want to invest.
In the pics we had disassembled it to more easily run wiring for the radio and such. I installed a knockout...
If that's the only problem I'd personally leave it alone. It's a fair amount of disassembly for something more or less trivial. In the entire time we've owned both our trucks we've never had them on floor for the rear. The overall temp is much more controllable with the roof vents and each...
I have had backup cams on every vehicle I've owned for about 10 years and no one has ever tried to steal one. First thing, it's wired into the car, second they're cheap and of little resale value so risk/reward/time combination is fairly poor. My experience is they're going after the radio...
The keypad could just be dead, these trucks are getting pretty old. Without having a known working pad it's just guessing what has failed. I managed to find a near mint condition one to replace the dented one on the wife's Navigator a a local u pull it uard for about $15. Winter is on us but...
It doesn't just pop off, the center console liner has to be disassembled to get at that. I've never looked into those but I would be willing to bet those are a surface mount led for the lights as opposed to a normal bulb.
I removed the vacuum hose from brake booster and used the cone fitting on the smoke machine to get a good seal. The smoke machine was powered from the vehicle battery.
If it were the same diameter as the other tires I probably wouldn't fuss but off the top of my head that tire is probably a couple inches taller than the existing. 4wd may not be too happy about that. Granted we have a 03's but my spares are the correct size on our navigator and expedition.
When I replaced claipers last year I didn't use Motorcraft due to lack of availability in the time frame I needed them. I used the powerstop remans and have been pleased so far. Coming up on about 13k of use with them and just about a year of service. No issues. Mine were installed on a...
Yes, and yes to the questions but for what it's worth if a shop that is doing the work needs help from you I'd go to a different place before they cause more problems. I get you are in the UK but resources for most auto shops are quite extensive and that should be easily obtained by anyone...
The 7600 is in our 03 Navigator. I will double check dimensions but I'd think it'd fit unless it would obscure the air vents on the sides, the navigator has vents above the radio. There is a printable paper template you can cut out that is the exact size of the screen if you download a PDF...
