    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    Same FoMoCo crap. Again, it really irritates me that they sell this as a "B&O Play" system, with B&O on the speaker cover, when it's really just a system tuned by B&O that doesn't even have a single B&O speaker in it (maybe the white driver/surround in the sub is). How much more would it have...

    2018 B&O Speakers (sizes and location)

    You may want to be careful with the "most people"...if he just wants to do a plug-and-play speaker swap, these are fine, and should go in with minimal effort. These are the mid-level Focals that are designed for stock replacements, while keeping stock headunit/amp. If he wants to do a full...

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    No, to my knowledge only the 2017 and 2018 speaker pics have been posted here. I would like to see the 2019s, as well. Count me with Guy in the camp that says they're the same FoMoCo paper ones. I'd be happy to be wrong, though, as there's no reason other than avarice to not have some upgrade...

    COBB CAI Question

    Much harder to claim CAI "caused" the damage under Magnuson-Moss than a tune that changes most engine parameters from stock.

    Auto stop eliminator

    Backup cam, rear sensors, etc. all work just fine on my 2018 802a SCREW. Sorry, but no reason to do anything other than pull the plug for $0.00.

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    Dropped in an AEM dry filter. Still need to install mud covers for FRL kit, and bed box from Bakflip...need 3-day weekends!

    Best Carbon Fiber Fender Flare and Heat Extractor

    Those parts are anathema to ascetics. Are you Little Carmine Lupertazzi by chance?

    To Recaro or not to Recaro?

    I do wish they had more than one color option. I like my orange accent interior quite a bit more than I even thought I would...breaks up the black/grey monotony nicely, IMO.

    2018 B&O Speakers (sizes and location)

    The a-pillar tweeters I think are 3/4", most folks go back with 3/4" or 1" The footwell mid-bass drivers are 6x9" The center is a single driver 3.5" The rears are 6.5" coaxials The sub-driver in the B&O is 8" None of the speakers/drivers are from B&O/Harman, just FoMoCo paper cone parts bin...

    To Recaro or not to Recaro?

    SIAP, but this was in an AutoWeek review, for those concerned about the dimensions of the Recaros in the '19: "With a focus on rough terrain, bolstered Recaro buckets probably aren’t on the top of your dream rig’s parts list. But they should be. The new Recaro seats in the ’19 Raptor have a...

    Squeak driver seat rubbing against console

    You could also put something there that would lubricate it and not harm either surface, like armor all, maybe.

    Squeak driver seat rubbing against console

    Mine did that, it does it less over time. Make sure you occasionally push the seat belt receiver back a bit, too. I thought I just needed to lose some weight...lol.

    Cleaning the raptor - interior and exterior

    For the interior, the best trick I've learned is to use Swiffer dry pads between details...pick up dust, etc from all surfaces, and lock it in the pad with no cleaner residue, etc. I keep several in a ziploc bag in the console.

    What time of day does Raptor Assault end? (driving day)...trying to book flights

    It's really one day, but they want you to come do a check-in/reception dinner the night before. It is not mandatory. The food is not great, but the main reason to do it, IMO, is to find your riding partner for the next day (if you come solo) so you don't get stuck with a turd. From the FAQ on...

    GEN 2 Auto Start Stop; Shut it off forever in 15 minutes.

    The trailer wire disconnect is the easiest way to fix this, hands down, and is reversible just as easily.

    Finished audio build

    I hear you, and there's a point of diminishing returns, especially when you're driving, putting people and things in the truck, etc.

    Congrats on the build! Is this...THE END?!?!? I kinda doubt it.

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    I know you know more about this stuff than I do, but you just gave the same advice I did. I chose the JBLs for my speakers only upgrade because they are very efficient...high sensitivity and they have a 2ohm impedance, so they can be driven easily by the stock amp. In fact, they are designed...

    Nitto Ridge Grappler vs. BFG Ko2’s

    They are very similar, but I think Toyo offers a better mileage warranty on the ATs, for some reason.

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    You may want to do a search/look though some of the custom thread on the first few pages of this sub-forum...several guys have done Focals, but none (that I know of) without doing a bypass of the stock amp/DSP, adding a new DSP, and amping the system. I just don't think it would be worth it to...

    Shorty antennas and reception

    I have the stubby .50 cal antenna...it works fine...stations that are weak fade a bit sooner than before, but not a big issue. The stocker was banging the hell out of my garage, so it had to go.
