Good idea, sent them an email, since they told me the seats wont ship until Monday. Should give them enough time to give me an answer for those brackets.

Did some work today, and still not finished because I'm to lazy.




The passenger seat, the back bracket don't line up, but Jake said to screw them in first and try the front which I'll do later.

As for the driver seat, I can't put it in yet, because the expedition seat power adapter is a different size than mine. What can I do?

My plug:


Expedition Plug (they cut the harness):


But for everything else, it was an easy mod to do.

I have 40/60 seats and an extra console that I need gone.

Thanks, now I just gotta get my driver seat in. I'm thinking about just swapping the motors, that way I don't have to splice any wires and what not.

Couldn't swap the motors out today, due to lack of tools, so I had to put my stock driver seat in. We'll see what happens in a few days.

Are my headlights aimed correctly? To me it feels like they are pointed down at the ground to much.



Also, don't you think HID's would look better anyways?

And look what I seen at BestBuy the other day.


How can I get a custom plate like that?

Yes they're pointing at the ground, YES HIDs would look better, and that plate is awesome lol. But I know nothing about Texas plates. I do know I'd never leave my top down in the parking lot

Guess I'll have to move the headlights up when I get the HID's, whats the best way to get them perfect with the fog lights? Also, I wish California had plates like those.
