I did the same with a NOCO G1 (I liked the idea of it trickling slowly). The extension lets me connect on the driver’s side which is easier to reach in the garage.

Got mine connected exactly like in the video and I believe that's the video I found as well and was referring to. My only difference is I have mine on the passenger side.

Put on a 3" Thermal R&D exhaust. Watched a couple of videos on YouTube and it couldn't have been easier - took about 45 minutes total.

Loving the sound, just hope it doesn't become too much with downpipes in the future.

I have the 3” Thermal’s with SPD 3” downpipes and it sounds great! I’ve had them on for about 18 months now and the tone has actually mellowed out. It doesn’t seem as loud as it used to be.

View attachment IMG_8667.jpeg Gave the interior a detail. Decided to clean the windshield since it was very dirty and noticed I need a new windshield, again. Last year in March caught a rock in TX while heading home. Left a quarter size crack.

Not sure when this one happened. But, I also noticed very tiny chips scattered throughout the windshield. We have owned many vehicles and this is the only one that has given us issues with windshield cracking. Either these windshields are very delicate or just bad luck. The current windshield is aftermarket that was installed by safelite.

Replaced broken drivers side seat cover with eBay one. Fitment was spot on and cost only about $32 shipped.
Looks good. Do you have a link for that part?

Next time tell safelite you want an OEM windshield as they probably just put in whatever was cheapest for them.

Cheaper for the customer. They’ll happily install whichever the customer specifies and charge accordingly.

OEM glass seems just as fragile… and OEM costs me out of pocket last time I inquired. At this rate I will just be happy with whatever glass I get zero out of pocket. Might just give up tinting it. Or learn to tint myself lol.

Yeah, I was thinking your insurance would pay for the glass as mine always had. Isn't there some kind of PPF stuff that can go on the glass now? Maybe you can ask about that next time.

I ask my insurance for OEM glass; it's never an issue. They also re-tint it. Just want a copy of my receipt.

WAY more appealing and such a nice aesthetic improvemenet. Simple and not expensive. Not sure why Ford wouldn't have done this themselves on all ST's, even my 2018 Fusion Sport has nice pedals.

I did a thing. After much back and forth between Eibach and Steeda, I finally went with Eibach.

Before:

After:

The difference is much more noticeable in person. The experience outside the car is significantly different. I'm tall and can now see over the car easily. Ingress/egress is much more comfortable (especially for kids). The vehicle looks much better IMO. I haven't done much driving on them yet, but so far, it seems a little stiffer than factory, but not much more harsh, even on Louisiana's shitty roads. Should get some extended highway time on it this week. First impressions are very positive!

You live in Texas
We have , at least in our area horrible debris trails on the roads. Rocks, screws, errant bungee cords,
I already have 3 divits in my f150 front glass
And one in the explorer
I call and complain to txdot often
They survey then end up doing thst sweeper thing around here.
People now days tend to drive more in shoulder or center line and thst is where the debris gathers.
If it's just a chip..insurance is supposed to cover free a seal or what ever
To stop further damage.
It does not work all the time
This is grandchild fusion...days after chip was sealed by an installer

I've had the Steed rear end bolts sitting on the work bench for a month or so... finally installed them.
