    New SYNC Version 3.4.23088

    I'm fairly convinced the memory issue with the build ver. 22251 in directly related to using Apple Car Play... when my girlfriend attached her iphone to charge in my Ford Ranger, some prompt came up about enabling Apple Car Play...things went south from there. I have all the same issues...

    New Tint, LED conversion

    Some states, like Florida where I live, allow exemptions to sunscreening (tinting) beyond the limits of the law, they include medical exemptions, (Lupus, Dermatomyositis, Albinism, Total or Facial Vitiligo, or Xeroderma Pigmentosum, or other Autoimmune Disease) which requires a limited exposure...

    Painting or Plastic Dip Door handles

    It is a pretty tedious process to get the wrap to "behave" around the tight radii, you will need to use a heat gun or hair dryer to stretch the film. I took about an hour each to do, from removal, wrap, to reinstall. I don't run it through the car wash, so I can't help you there, but the film...

    Painting or Plastic Dip Door handles

    Check these out, I haven't been able to get to the driver's door, so it shows a pretty good comparison to the passenger rear door. I removed the handles to apply the film, I would have removed and had the body shop paint, but it is just a leased vehicle. I think they will probably be...

    Explorer 2nd row console install

    Ordered mine from Autonation, same price as Levitt with free shipping $280.00. I ordered the DB5Z-78045A36-AD, which is black with black stitching, I think it's for all other explorers, not the Sport. When I read the description for the other letters "AA" (last two) the Black/Pebble description...

    Warning: Magnaflow #15218 Cat-Back

    Cobrajohn, I was disappointed that the 15218 was not a true bolt-on and the fact they did not design properly for all Sport Model configurations (non-tow and tow packages). My vehicle is a lease and I didn't want to cut the factory exhaust. I think the Corsa exhaust will be a true bolt-on...

    LED turn signal how-to (front & rear)

    Harley, The Cree's are the same ones I purchased and installed. Did you end up removing the originally installed resistors or just switch the bulbs out? Oh, and the red ones are blinding for sure.

    Help with HID ballast mounting

    Kirby, Not sure which kit you are going to install, but I also had the dilemma of where to mount the ballast for a clean look. For the Morimotoes I installed, I ended up fabricating some brackets in the locations you have indicated. It's probably not much help, but I thought I'd share my...

    New Aluminum Sport Pedals

    Here it is. Well, I finally got a chance to install the Taurus/MKS Sport Pedal Kit (DG1Z-9G757-A ) on my Explorer Sport, I can't believe this is not OEM. It was really simple, the best tool to use to attach the brake pedal pad is a paint can lid remover you get from the Home Depot. The...

    I think this is a 2013 issue, my 2011 Limited Edge's turn signal arm effort was minimal. My 2013 Sport requires more effort for sure.
