Put my old Android tablet to use 🤓
Sits on dash sticky pad from Amazon, connected to Bluetooth OBDLink.
The camera doubled up the pic, its not like this when driving.

That does look decent, but I always get weirded out by things added onto the dash, that ain't gonna stay in a collision, that's a projectile waiting to happen.
How's the black levels though, app dependent or can your tablet get completely dark besides the numbers?

New air filter. Goodbye grungy yellow paper, hello high-flow blue washable.

The original:

The replacement:

This is an Airraid 863-399. The exact same filter Ford Performance sells for a lot more.
The fitment info is a little dated on Airaid's website, but this is the right filter for the large intake on the Ford Performance M-9603-M8 kit. I ordered it from Tdot Performance for a smidge over $100 Cad. including shipping. Very nicely made.
I've added the same one about 2 months ago, so far it's great and yes, you can get it for virtually same price as Ford online, but looks (and I hope performs) much better.

I am still tweaking it, did some changes. At this moment I am not even sure if I am going to keep it.
Good point with "things flying around" when crashing..
Will take more pics later..

EDIT: Project is over. When driving in sunlight at the height of the day you see nottin' !
It's just not worth it, unless its projected with laser. 😅

Centre caps ?

If so, I would keep them, but go with matt or satin black (like the 5.0’s) :like:

WD :like:

Those caps are awesome. I’d keep them as is.

Finally got around to installing the 1st EZ mods. Did the Diode Dynamics interior lights, Reverse light, and the Speedform Brushed finish dead pedal. Everything looks Great! Some notes from my install...

1. Like many have noted...take your time with the dome lights. I used plastic trim tools to pry, wedge, pry, wedge until I was able to compress the retaining clip on the drivers side. From there I was able to swap out both lights without dealing with the passenger clip.

2. Definitely easier to remove the vanity mirror to reach the bulbs. I've got sausage fingers and even though it was a few extra steps I saved myself the frustration and got it done without profanity

3. Reverse light and dead pedal...Straight up EZ. My 7 year old grandson could have done it.

My DD Interior LED set came with the glove box light. I do not have one. Just an empty hole where the switch would be.

I did these simple mods because this is how it should have come from the factory. Full interior LEDs and a matching dead pedal.
