    Surface mount Tweeters in the rear of EL?

    I want to add speakers in the rear of my EL. I sat in the 3rd row the other day to listen to the system after my kids kept telling me to turn up the stereo so they can hear it. I thought it was loud enough. Well sure enough once you sit in the back it is hard to hear when you do not have the...

    Paint Bubbling, We need EVERYONE to register a complaint! READ FORDS RESPONSE!!!

    Update: I had bubbling on my hood and took it back to dealer. Dealer looked at it and took a ton of pictures to submit to Ford. Ford replied with a request for a quote to have the hood repainted. I did this, they approved it and the work was taken care of. Can not complain other than it...

    hesitation on heavy acceleration and cruise control

    Yes I guess it would be more like a stumble. Happens more when I have the cruise set. What did it cost you to have the coil fixed? I am still under warranty should this be looked at prior to warranty expiration or would this not be covered under warranty?

    hesitation on heavy acceleration and cruise control

    So I just got back from a 1200 mile round trip to Virginia. When we hit I-95 and traffic was "cruising" at 80 MPH I noticed that when I stepped on it to get off the ramp and it had a slight hesitation. I did not think much about it but it continues to do it every now and then when I hae the...

    Bad headrest designs and possible fix

    I just bent my headrests back about 3/4" and they are MUCH better and allows me to now install the other two headrest monitors "in" the headrests. Much better and wasn't that hard to do. I used a 5' piece of 1/2" Black Iron or gas line and it worked.

    Pioneer PROBLEMS

    Thanks for the advise.... I was actually sold the wrong harness from Best Buy. The second harness that I found was the data harness. The 12v acc wire is tied into that but not a direct line. I did not understand it so had them install it and they had to run a seperate 12v Acc wire to power on...

    Headrest monitors in the 3rd row seats

    I just bent the driver and passenger headrests back enough to mount the other two monitors. I cut these in as well. I will post pics soon. The front headrest do not have the same black plastic backing. Have to use some zip straps and a couple of screws in the harder foam areas to hold in the...

    Headrest monitors in the 3rd row seats

    You have to mount them toward the top of the headrest because just below the monitor is the metal frame for the flip down headrest.

    Bad headrest designs and possible fix

    So my 2011 Headrests have got to be the worst design. I did some research and found out that some people have actually bent the posts back to straighten the headrests up. To me it sounds kind of sketchy to take a pole and bending the headrest post back as a fix. Has anyone ever tried this or...

    Headrest monitors in the 3rd row seats

    Matt... Thanks again for your help. I took off the head rest tonight and cut the opening for the monitor. It worked and looks great. The middle head rests actually have a plastic plate halfway through so all you have to do is screw the shroud to it and it works perfectly. I will be doing...

    Headrest monitors in the 3rd row seats

    Thanks Matt... I will try that. I am not sure what I am feeling but I think the metal supports in the headrest are gonna be in the way. I am now thinking about mounting the monitor flange directly to the headrest and coming up with some sort of filler for the sides so it looks more seemless.

    Headrest monitors in the 3rd row seats

    I was wondering if anyone has attempted to install headrest monitors into the 3rd row seating area in a 3rd generation. Just so it is clear I am talking about putting the monitors into the head rests of the middle seats so you would be viewing them from the 3rd row? The headrests do not come...

    Has anyone used "add a circuit"

    Has anyone used add a circuit? It seems to be the safest way to tap into my fuse box for ignition power. Anyone with any input on this it would be greatly appreciated.

    Power wiring for (4) monitors

    So if my monitors will only turn on if the power button on the screen is pressed then I would not need the Delay Relay? My monitors do have a power button so I am assuming they are not going to turn on when I turn on the ignition. Where did you run the power from? I guess what I am asking...
