You can always cut a few of these up and create what you need. Just some grille clothe and some nice resin, sandpaper, prime and paint. Its what I would do.

Slow to get started, but I did wire the camera switch into the trucks main harness & hook up the new FCIM...

I did tape the wires back up with Tesa tape...didn't take photos though


I'm digging the LED rings around the control *****

Can you get around the hard seat heater buttons not working by enabling the digital buttons on the display?

No, when you press the hard buttons the display comes on also but the seat itself still doesn't - same with pressing the screen...

I haven't completely decided what I'm going to do with the rear either.... But if I decide to paint it, I'll probably buy their rear covers for that job too!

Sorry Fire to post in your thread..

Keep in mind on a regular F150 the area in front of the rear bumper on the bedside is considerably larger than on a Raptor because the rear of the bed has more taper to achieve a sharper departure angle. So a Raptor bumper looks a little funny on regular F150. I considered too but could not get past that.
