Exactly what the title states - putting a thread together where we can come and post little tidbits of anything we have done today, and as we build them to our own tastes.

Added a few more StickerFab accessories, the rear door triangle, the front headlight signal bar (no idea what it's called) all 4 door sill guards, and of course, the Hawaii State flag!

Installed a Btech 50V GMRS and Anina Hood Mount Antenna. Got it set up, and while havnet tested it this distance, I expect to get to 20 miles hitting a local repeater.

ForeScaned my double honk away and did the module purge on the ABS system to try and get rid of that spongy brake pedal. It helped quite a bit.

Got to install the first HammerBuilt hidden winch mount in the wild! The Yankum comp fairlead was delayed, so that will go on when it comes in. I love having the winch hidden, yet still high up. The MileMarker Terry Madden winch is one of only two that will fit in the space and I cannot wait to try it out. It was a lot of work to do the install, but I am super happy with it. HammerBuilt, and specifically Alex there, did a great job!!

The winch is not wireless, but it comes with two different control options: one from a traditional wired remote and a second from a toggle switch for the interior. I decided to put both to use and installed the toggle switch in the cubby next to the USB connections and my GMRS radio plug. I modified my War Horse light mount to attach the remote plug.

I have the high package and don't have ACC. This is the Wagner Tuning high mount intercooler, but the Mishimoto intercooler kit apparently has a relocation bracket for ACC.

Thanks… second picture just right of winch rope looked like the ACC sensor had been relocated…

No problem. That is actually the winch controller removed from its plastic cover.

Still working the retro transition of my 2023 Outer Banks. Installed white grill. Would have preferred red FORD lettering but like the red BRONCO. Fender flares wrapped in vinyl. Wrapping roof is next. Any lessons learned on wrapping a roof?

This Red POPS!!! Very nice.

That's a terrible idea, when do we start?

I'm curious, why Aux switch 2? It's one of only 2 30A switches and the radio at max power on transmit only drawns a max of 5A? So any of the other switches would work, including 5 or 6 which are rated at 10A.

Aux 5 is my ditch lights and Aux 6 is my ARB dual.. No specific reason for Aux 2, it's just the wire I tapped in.. I prob should have put it on Aux 4 but I am not going to change it..

I think Aux 2 is a 15A?

Edit: Yes, as shown by @Kenneth, Aux 2 is 15A..

Yeah, I'm not trying to second guess your choices, I was just wondering if there was a reason you picked the one you did since you could literal use any switch you wanted. If you were using the 50 watt radio which draws 15A, then you would definately want to use Aux 2.

Yup, I stand corrected, Aux 2 is 15A, not 30A like @Kenneth points out.

I found Aux 2 first and just decided to use it.. No real reason for using it other than laziness. In hindsight, I probably should have put it on Aux 4 just so I'd have 4, 5 and 6 in use..

I ordered some StickerFab stickers for the switches. Once those arrive I'll get the appropriate ones slapped on the switches that are in use because I'll forget what's what.. LOL

Massive, and I mean massive, install today! /s

Installed a cheap passenger side center console molle panel. I moved my mic extension cable to it so I can have a bit more motion and movement from the mic. I also mounted my small flashlight to it and can slap my handheld GMRS radio to it...

It was $30 and it took all of 5 minutes to install... It appears to be sturdy and it installed without issue as everything lined up. No drilling required as it uses existing mounting points. I don't think it has a brand name so I'll just call it my cheap Chinese molle panel.
