Gharri30 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) Think I forgot this one on my list. Thinking at some point I may do some grill lights like these pictured (more of an astectic thing than anything). To me they look best in these two grill styles pictured instead of the Lariat grill I'll have because of how they line up with the lights. So thinking I'll have to change the grill out if i decide to do them. Now this will be my first Ford so I'm not sure what belongs to what trim level or year, or if the grills are even interchangeable. Are these KR and Platinum grills or possibly just from one trim level? I may also do a small light bar tucked into the bumper similar to the one in the first picture. Anyone have a particular brand bar they've run that they prefer? Thoughts or info appreciated. Edit... I have a 250 Lariat 7.3 on the way by the way.. left that off.

Alex Kreh Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 RTX Tonneau Cover - ~2k Leveling Kit and Installed - Unsure 37x12.50x20 Tires - 1.5k-2.5k Window Tint - ~400 Rain guards - 50 Dash Cam - Unsure Possibly Paint Matching - Unsure Grill Lights - Don’t really want to pay for FordSixFo’s Ranch Hand Brush Guard - ~900 5th Wheel Kit - Unsure May do a Valance Swap - 100 Looking for any good recommendations for a dash cam, I’ve looked around a little bit but I would like to see what some people have done an liked. Something seamless and high security. Also if anyone knows roughly how much it would cost to paint match, mirrors, headlights, taillights, and emblems I would be very curious to know. I’ve never looked into it and have no idea. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things already from factory will be: - Hard folding tonneau cover - 5th wheel prep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any accessory options for putting this in once it arrives that anyone knows about? If it is in the same location as the 2020 Expedition I have, under the radio, my iPhone doesn't fit when it is in a case. I ended up buying a wireless charging cradle from Amazon and pairing it with a BuiltRight Ind mounting bracket. Have my phone and iPad mounted there in the Expedition and plan to do the same with the 250 when it arrives.

JT42 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Small mod/accessory for my radar detector. Just installed a blend mount for a R3 radar detector, tapped into my mirror plug. Cleans up having to run a power cord to your cigarette lighter and no suction cups. Also powers off immediately after you shut off the truck. I got my FORScan adapter in today, going to play around with that tomorrow, after I do some more research. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that style of mount for my BlackVue dashcam. I really like it. Very sturdy, totally hides the dashcam behind my mirror, and no suction cups on windshield or stuff on dash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstFord22 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 @Gharri30 I’m not sure what else there is for me to buy! Because the original wheels I wanted were on back order until who knows when, I decided to go with the TIS 547B. They’re sitting at the shop with the 2.5” leveling kit and the 35x12.50/20 Toyo Open Country MTs. This sure is fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gharri30 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 @FirstFord22 I'm sure I could help you think of a few more things. I have plenty left on the list. There's got to be something on there you don't have yet. I went with some wheels from TIS as well (560B) after going back and forth on two other sets for the longest time. It would be a lot more fun if I could get this VIN. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was bummed that the they were advertising on there site the phone mount bases would not work with the 2022 with the 12" display. I ordered a bullet proof instead.

35FordTudor Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Today I have ordered a Leer mid height cap, with rails, carpet and the front opening window to clean the truck back glass. Plus the full bed rug for the 8 foot box. Just the tip of the ordering…I’ll post photos when the cap comes in, Leer said that a Branden was causing a 6 week delay. Everything I’m ordering has a delay from this guy? He needs to be replaced sooner than later. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the review section of the mount, a user posted one on a 350 platinum with a 12” display. I also sent customer service a message asking about it said it will work. I should have it this week and I’ll report back with some pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful ordering too much stuff specifically for the '22 model just in case you end up not getting a '22. I had that thought when I was about 5 months into my wait and had my Weathertech stuff sitting here. It shouldn't be too much longer for me now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I quit buying stuff for now. Unfortunately the three things I have bought are some of the most expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
