What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?


Recommended Posts

Any update, Prinzll?

 

A short time ago, I actually did apply Klasse (AIO and Sealant Glaze) and topped it with Pinnacle's XMT180 on the gloss black part of the dash/console. Has a very nice, clean, and shiny look.

 

Outside of that, it's too darned hot here to do what I really want to do. In fact, the temps got up to 113 yesterday.

More details please :)

Its 3 layers of cut vinyl, a metallic black, a chrome, and a clear laminate. The final cut of the laminate is done after they are put together so its a really clean cut through the whole thing. I wrapped my grill with the black and then used some of the excess to make some new emblems.

Used it to help get these 2 absolutely beautiful rescue Rotties a little closer to their forever homes..... coming from Georgia on their way up to their rescue in Pennsylvania. I picked them up in Spartanburg, SC and took them to Charlotte, NC. Both total sweethearts :wub: Smaller one was a little nervous though.... he threw up with the people before me

Taking a short break and handing them over to the next driver in Charlotte

Beautiful Rotties! Glad a Ford Edge is being used for these rescues, elevates our image :)

 

Hahah definitely! :) And the ladies I met up with in Charlotte that took him on his next leg of the trip were driving an '06-10 Explorer, lol. Most of the transports there's usually another Edge too that pick them up up in Virginia (not sure which year though)

 

And yea they were beautiful Rotties...... soooo so very sweet. Absolutely LOVE Rotties!

Sorry, I didn't take any pics because I assumed someone here had likely done this swap already. As far as removing the keypad goes, it is a relatively simple process;

 

1) tape off the door on either end of keypad to protect the paint

2) pry up either end of the keypad while simultaneously pushing the keypad towards the opposite side (there is a spring steel clip on each end that holds the keypad in place)

3) lift out the keypad and disconnect the wire harness connector

Well not really 'today', but over the weekend she got lots of use! Drove 611 miles with my trailer, went out to Garysburg, NC to NC BIKE for a trackday with Team Pro Motion. Was my first time back out on the track in almost 2 years, and was hands down my best trackday to date..... absolutely incredible weekend :)

 

Loaded up and ready to roll
