^ You say that now.
Love the Ford GT theme on the APIM, killed the door & key chimes, increased lane change blinker to 5 blinks, global windows.
I think they figured out address entry in motion with factory NAV.

I've got the Lincoln Presidential theme, the brown tones are sweet, but the ambient lighting colors aren't in the same spots. I killed the double honk on mine, I don't have the chimes and did global windows (which I've never used lol). Didn't know about the lane change or the address entry in motion (which the voice system does pretty good with addresses). If you go the route of adding memory controls you can set it to move your mirrors down in reverse so you can see the ground better. Mine have since messed up, so I need to go back through that...

^ I've got a 302A, so no ambient lighting or keyless start/entry.

Would eventually like to add ambient lighting, Lariat mirrors (for the power fold, don't care for reverse tilt), and a Latiat+ APIM bezel for Automatic climate.

Memory seats would be nice, but have a feeling it'll be $$$

I don't think it's that bad. I think BGG added it to his truck, I know he added the ambient lighting. Somewhere I posted a picture of what the theme I'm using looks like. I wanted the Lincoln Black Label theme. I could find it in the "test mode" on the APIM, but not in Forscan so I went with the Presidential one. The only difference is the splash screens. Auto climate is nice as well. There's times I wish I had gone with an XLT, but my frivolous creature comforts I have now make me happy I went this way.

Do either of y'all notice the stereo in the XLT is weak? My friend is saying he has to have his at 30 for it to be even remotely loud. I've rarely taken mine over 16, but I've got the Sony system and now an aftermarket sub. Just curious if anyone else is noticing the quietness. I haven't heard his for myself though.

Sorry, got sidetracked. Lol. You could add all of that though.

Double honk is if I get out of my truck with the engine running and they key in my pocket, then close my door it would double honk to alert me that the engine is still running.

Or, in the case of my largely-featureless XLT, a double honk occurs when I attempt to lock my truck's doors remotely with the key fob but one of the four doors isn't closed all the way. Stuff like that.

How about disabling the chimes when the e-brake is on and I put it in gear? I would also like the headlights to come on when I unlock it with the fob.

Not sure about those, I've wondered about the headlights too.

Got a code in the FORScan thread to try for headlights on with unlock, but since I am adding remote start, not sure I want that.

Also today, I installed LED high beam bulbs. Same 9005 as in my fogs, my wifes 2016 Explorer fogs and my sons 2013 F150 fogs. Of course nobody ever should see my high-beams, but it was bothering me that they were halogen and not LED. I went with the Broview brand again since the other LED kits I have of theirs have been flawless.
