Added the Hill Descent switch.
Added the USB hub so that Apple Car Play will work in this 2016.
Changed the In Cabin microfilter.
Ordered the 2018 F150 LED Fog lights and 2018 Super Duty LED license lights from Tasca Parts
- Opened the back of the Multi Contour Seats and shot a video of how the massage and cooled seat mechanisms work.
Loaded FORscan and did the following mods:
- Lincoln Style Autofold Mirrors
- Global Window Open/Close
- Bambi Mode
- Engine and Trans Temps show above gauges
- Heated / Cooled Seat Icons AND Heater Steering Wheel on Home and climate screen
- Hill Descent Control enabled
- Perpendicular Park enabled and tested! (THIS IS AMAZING)
I'll probably extend the radio on time on my next FORscan session.
Loving this truck!! Thanks Ford!

THE 2018 LED F-150 fog lamps came in. The housing has changed a little, and the light mounting surface is recessed back about 3/4 inch more. I think I’m going to put the entire 2018 assembly in my bumper.
EDIT - Whoops! I just noticed the shape of the opening is different! 2018 opening is rectangular. I guess I'm just using the lights!
i also got the LED F-250 license lights and will tackle installing those this weekend.

I opened up the backs of my seats to see how the multi countour massage seats work. It’s a small air pump, kind of like the ones in a fish tank. That pump goes into a box of valves that open and close filling and draining plastic air bags in the seat. Three bags in the seat back. Four bags in the seat bottom.
the white piece is the air intake for the cooled seats. It pulls cooled air from the floor boards and blows it out the seat perforations. Check out the video.

i just installed the 2018 F150 LED fog lights in my 2016 on the passenger side and took some photos and a video.
i like the look of the LED much better but noticed strobing whe the RPMs come up on my front camera view. Do you see this in your Factory installed 2018 LEDs?
MY LED fogs are 2018 Ford OEM parts from Tasca. I suppose it could be possible the strobe goes away after I install both LEDs so that the circuit isn't running hallogen and LED at the same time. I was taking the "see the difference" photo and just noticed it.
thanks!

Received my BAK Revolver X4 and installed it as the sun went down and into the dark. It was really very easy. An issue with the seal at the bulkhead where it wasn’t installed correctly. I had to peel the Rubber back and re install it. I hope the sticky stays stuck! here are some pictures

Pictures installing last night. The sun went down and it rained all night so the finished pics are from this morning. Bed stayed very dry.
Notice in the second picture, the weather strip on the roll up cover at the front of the truck was just slapped on, or came loose when the packaing people rolled it up. I had to pull it off and re stick. Some of the glue stayed behind and I think this will be a point of failure since the sticky residue was compromised. I plan on contacting BAK for a new piece of weatherstrip
