Those tips look nice.
Thanks you.

After driving around the last several days. I believe the muffler is starting to break in. Tone is a little louder and it’s absolutely perfect for me. No drone at all and wife and kid approved while on the highway

I did the same thing. I got a couple of wireless pads and a plug in for 115 volt. Then used two sided tape and put them on. They work really good and quick charging.

That's the cleanest aftermarket install that I've seen yet. It would look even better if you tucked the wires into the channels on the left and right of your wireless pads.

You are right. We had just put them up minutes before I took the picture. I am definitely going to tuck them up.

I like this!

I've been rocking my brain trying to come up with a neat way to install wireless charging in my truck. I have a jump seat in the front, which means no center console.

Can't identify a good spot to put and connect a charging pad. :-/

I like the way the square pads look better than the round ones. I may replace it with a couple of square ones. We'll see.

Checkout Course Motorsports mounts. This is their MagSafe mount, which works with iPhone 12 and later. A friend attached a ring to the back of his Android phone, and it works.

I hardwired a USB charger for mine, as the built in USB ports weren’t supplying enough power. But the same friend instead used his 115V outlet in his Big Horn. (Mine is a Longhorn, and unless I’m crazy, the only 115V outlet is in front of the back seats).

P.S. The upcoming Qi2 standard is based on Apple MagSafe, so before long, almost all phones will be MagSafe compatible.

I'm an android user so I appreciate specifics shared.

I have an outlet in on the passenger side in the front but my teenage daughter always commandeers thar one on long trips. I would likely hardwire mine. Which fuse did you tap for the install?

Upgraded my headlights and both fogs to LEDs. Went with yellow lights for the Fogs.

Also installed some more storage options in the doors to help when the jump seat is being used.

While installing the headlight bulbs, my dumb self chose to leave the door open and checked the headlights after each bulb install. Ended up with a dead battery, but I got the chance to test out my tiny jump starter. Worked like a charm.

I also intended to change my cabin air filter but the one I bought was the wrong size. I just dusted out the old one and put it back in for now.

Not too bad for a rainy day. 👍
