I like the mods; think I’ll do the tailgate strut. The trailer chain connection points are corrected on my 2023 F350 . My headlamps are LEDs already. Great video again. Appreciate you show the details on how to do something instead of assuming everyone knows already.

Amazing video. Another suggestion that is often overlooked; getting seat covers for all the seats (front and back). Decent sets for them can be had for $25 to $30, to preserve wear/tear, and prevent staining of cloth seats. Also, several models of F150s don't come with locking gas latches. This is remedied for only $11 with an amazon locking gas cap plus keys.

One thing you may have forgotten is the $12.00 mod they you attach to the rear de re overs side ‘seat back’ allowing for a shoebox leash to grab, which brings the back of the rear seat forward very easily. It’s amazing how much one can store back there!

You should talk about improving the AC condensate drain. It’s behind the front passenger wheel. Stock one is horizontal (on my 2019) and can leak back into the passenger compartment, ruining your carpet. Glue a 3/4” elbow on it and it’s fixed. It’s a common problem and as of 2 years ago hasn’t been fixed by ford.

The tailgate strut and hammer locks are very cool. You would think for $75k, Ford could nut up and include a damped tailgate. As for the fog lights, if you really want them to work best in fog, get the lower temp version. Amber light doesn't penetrate better, but the human eye sees that color temperature better. It's why off road race cars have them on the rear, as they can be seen from a greater distance (in the dust) than standard tail lights. The same concept works when looking forward through fog or dust. Great video!

Console cover and lights arrived today. The cover will be returned. It curls due to the fold from packaging and doesn't reach the back of the console unless I'm stretching and holding. Not long enough to tuck in the back which means the curl pulls the back toward the front. Also, the elastic strap obstructs access to the pen holders in the console cover. Will test the lights tonight.

Great suggestions for my 2017 F350!! Getting the lights, console cover and antenna today. Hadn't thought of adding an extender for my chains. Could probably use my D shackles, but need to confirm strength first. Something smells wrong with that plan. Any idear how to remove the hammerlocks if you need to someday? Also, if you a do a tonneau cover video, mention how some will sag. My buddy's 2013 F350 with a stock Ford cover is thicker than most aftermarkets and doesn't sag nearly as much as mine that I bought in 2020 for around $300. Happy with it otherwise.

2019 F150 SuperCrew/SPORT. When I installed the tailgate strut, I didn’t get “includes all the tools you need”! You got a DeWalt cordless drill! Now, I’m upset! I’m gonna take my blanket and sit in the corner! (Installing the strut was something I did 3 weeks after taking delivery! Highly recommended for any and all pickup tailgates!). I also like the cargo netting on the rear seat. Can’t use it as I have the “dog sling” which keeps my little Shar Pei girl safe! URPOWER Dog Car Seat Cover for Back Seat, Waterproof Dog Car Hammock Dog Seat Cover with Mesh Window and Side Flap Pets Car Seat Protector Dog Backseat Cover for Car and SUV. Another inexpensive add-on I would recommend is: Chelhead Led Pod Lights, 2Pcs 2.8 Inch 20W Flood Off Road Backup Driving Lights Fog Lamp Rear Bumpers Signal Reverse Light Bars Compatible with Trucks Jeep Motorcycle ATV UTV SUV Tacoma. They are a godsend for placing the truck in R at night. I mounted mine under the bumper and wired into the Reverse wire! I have a cab high shell and the rear tailgate backup camera with the additional lighting really helps. Here is a bonus: I don’t like wiring clutter for rear view mirrors, so I installed an adapter from (Amazon) Dongar Dashcam Power Adapter! Works with virtually ALL powered auto dimming rear view mirrors! No more worries about A-Pillar air bags! Enjoyed your video, thanks!

At least adjust the aim of the headlights if your going to put LED or HID bulbs in, so you dont blind everyone. I retrofitted projectors out of a junkyard infiniti when I got LEDs and it has a clean cut off and doesn't blind other drivers.

… fog lights have an on and off button as shown in the video, use discretion as needed, they don’t blind people they have less lumen’s than head lights and they are angled slightly down. Been using them for 5 years in the F150 and not a single vehicle of the hundreds of thousands I’ve passed has ever flashed there lights at me or gone careening out of control off the road. Beside Fords lariat and platinum come standard LED fog lights that are brighter than these aftermarket ones, I doubt Ford would take on that liability if they where blinding people left and right causing accidents. Sorry to hear about the windshield, never had that happen, I just always hated to looks of the large one. They did worry me running them through the car wash. I thought it might come back and hit the windshield.

The only thing I can say about your short antenna is now you have lost your safety alert that your clearance maybe too low. Those antennas are only on there to let you know once they are hit, that your clearance might be too low.

If you get the tailgate assist open shock, just get it from the dealer. It’s way better and is hidden behind the taillight. Nothing can get caught on it and all fords now come with the truck built to be able to have one. Only thing is is certain trim levels don’t come with the actual shock

The only thing I like about my antenna is it's taller than the roof and has kept me from smacking my roof in parking garages or on low branches. I can just inch up and if my antenna clears...I'm in the clear.

Installing LED bulbs in the Halogen factory headlight housings is just wrong. So many people do this incorrectly and end up with really horrible beam patterns. If you do not spin the LED assembly and take the time to aim it properly it ends up blinding everyone coming at you. If you want LED headlights do it right and install LED housings. I get that not everyone can afford that option but I wish they would outlaw LED bulb replacements. They are not safe for oncoming traffic.

In some states, it is illegal to drive with fog lights on unless there is actually bad weather. Putting brighter lights on the vehicle will only make it worse. Driving toward a vehicle with fog lights on is like driving toward a vehicle with brights.

… fog lights have an on and off button as shown in the video, use discretion as needed, they don’t blind people they have less lumen’s than head lights and they are angled slightly down. Been using them for 5 years in the F150 and not a single vehicle of the hundreds of thousands I’ve passed has ever flashed there lights at me or gone careening out of control off the road. Beside Fords lariat and platinum come standard LED fog lights that are brighter than these aftermarket ones, I doubt Ford would take on that liability if they where blinding people left and right causing accidents.
