My 2002 HD V-Rod.

I liked this one with a little help from Instagram.

I would be interested in purchasing a custom box if they ever decide to build these. I'd would like to replace the 8" with a 10" sub.

I bought my 2012 Sport on Dec. 22. In the beginning there were a few minor issues that Ford proptly fixed. Since those were resolved I've been extremely happy with my Edge!!! And the MFT Upgrade has been FANTASTIC!!! The one and only negetive is the gas mileage I get, but I'm the one that wanted the Sport with the larger engin and 22" rims. So that's really on me. Besides that, I LOVE MY EDGE!!!

I would go with red. I have a Black 2012 Sport and I found a company that does the emblem overlays. I ordered Black, but have not put them on because I started thinking about going with red instead and then doing red calipers. The overlays look like they are really good quality, but like I said, I haven't put them on yet.

I installed a Curt hitch a couple of weekends ago on my 2012 Sport. I did quite a bit of research and found that Curt manufactured a hitch for the 2011 and up "Sport". Draw-Tite specifically said that their hitch is for "all Edge models, except the Sport". I did the install myself without much trouble at all. I think it looks pretty clean. I had to trim the bottom fascia a tad, however, I didn't have to cut the piece completely out. It's kind of hard to explain, but you might be able to see what I'm talking about in photo1, photo4 & photo5. I would also suggest purchasing the wiring kit that is made specifically for the Sport. It has a module on it for the LED taillights. It was pretty easy to install as well. The toughest part of the wiring was running the wire from the battery to the back of the vehicle. I wanted to make sure it was all tucked away neatly in the frame, but even that wasn't too difficult, just a little time consuming.

Cool!! Stick with what worked for you. 3 years with "no" problems sounds like a good run for any aftermarket HIDs from what I've read. How "pricey" is the kit you're talking about, if you don't mind me asking?

My HIDs lined up perfectly. On low, when you can see the very defined line across the top created by the flaps, it's perfectly level all the way across. And the light evenly distributed, left to right and top to bottom.

Glad to here you got it all in and everything worked.

It all depends on how you route the wires. But I grounded 2 of the grouns underneath the airbox. I used a self tapping screw and went into the plate that the airbox sits on. and the third on over on the passengers side I put on the inside side wall by the windshield wiper fluid bottle. Used a self tapping crew there as well. Make sure you sand a small area off where the ground wire will meet the metal so you get a good connection.

For the caps you will need to drill a 1" hole. The screws I used were from Lowes in the Automotive Screws section of Hardware. The size is #10 x 3/4". You could probably even use #10 x 1/2". And like Dr. Edge stated in his post, these are not threaded so there are a lot of options. I like the the ones I used because they were blak and had that built it washer/head. I hope this helps. Good luck with your install.

This might be a stupid question, but would it be possible to add ACC to my 2012 Sport? I'm guessing not, but I would love to have that. Of all the "extras" that I have read about, the ACC would be the one I would want more than anything.

Mine is FWD. I would have to look at my paperwork for exact numbers which is at home, but I know I did get the PremiumCARE - 6year/100,000 I believe are the terms. I don't know the $ off the top of my head. However I was playing with the numbers not long after I actually bought the car and figured at the time my monthly payments w/o ESP @ 3.9% vs. with ESP @ 2.49% and the difference was a dollar or so more a month more with ESP @ 2.49%. I did not get any of the other CARE packages.

Absolutely!!

Then what was it that lowered my rate and why would they give me the reduction after the deal was done when they (the dealership / F&I Guy) had absolutely nothing to gain and possibly a little bit to lose doing the deal at an even lower rate? When I say "a little bit to lose" I'm refering to the "kickback" they get on financing. And, finally, how did they lie to me? I'm just wanting to make sure that this whole "me gaining while giving up nothing" thing doesn't happen to me again when I go to purchase my next new car.
