She was plain filthy after the last road trip. Total of 10 hours worth of washing and detailing. Clay bar, Iron X, water spot remover because I didn’t dry the damn thing after I washed it, polish and wax. Water spots were so bad on the glass I had to dry cut them with 0000 steel wool. Now she goes under her cover until after Christmas...comes back out on the 26th for a 200 mile back road “cruise” with a local group. 2791848A-EFD8-462B-A80D-7611F1AF9473.jpeg

How did you get the black panel with the window pulleys off the door?
Undo the white plastic screw things around the perimeter hen reach up from the bottom inside the door and unsnap the window from the track. Obviously tape the window up first. It’s actually pretty simple once you see how it’s attached.

Guess I didn’t post it here. Picked up a 2nd C12XL and a Mosconi Zero 3 to power both subs. CE29F5B7-E418-49D2-AF66-38A9917B7802.jpeg 1CE804E2-3F83-4659-9954-2E1A5683D5E7.jpeg

To unsnap the window are you talking about those two pull tabs that are attached to the white pieces on the window? If so I can get both to move but the track assembly won't budge and I have all the plastic screws loose.

I too cut the water spots on the glass with 0000 steel wool. My glass was spotted since day one and even doing that, there’s still some spots I can’t get out; most likely etched.

I should be picking up my new ST next week. And after reading these 37 pages, I'm starting to wonder where I'll get the $137K more needed for mods. :cool:

Finally has time to go pick these up along with some new install supplies. These were the last big part of the puzzle. Glad I got them now…the price is about to go up substantially and they’re already quite expensive.

So...I hate key holes. Always have. lol
A trick I found out with my last F150 is that you can move around the door handle covers to hide them. If you ever need the actual key the cover pops off in 2 seconds once you know how to do it. I grabbed a used rear handle off LKQ for $60 and my local body shop charged me $40 to spray it. All I had to do was swap out the chrome strip for our black one which is just double sided taped on. And now I’m happy...no more key hole. View attachment 1087
I can't for the life of me find that rear door handle

Sorry to be a bother but before I pull the trigger is is this what would work for the 2022.
It looks like it but I don’t know the PN’s by heart.

The guy on ebay said "The catalog doesn't actually show that this part can be disassembled without damaging it, and the only guidelines we have for consideration of fitment to your truck is the parts catalog and the Ford parts database. As we advised you in our previous message the catalog is only showing compatibility of this handle with the 2020 model listed in the compatibility table in the listing." In situations like this I ask my self WWUD. So... What wouldddd unbroken do?

Looks the same to me. There’s no PN stamped on it though. 7805432C-0B69-421A-89F9-2D7D3D27F2DA.jpeg

Ok I'll order it. If I need help I'll harass you again. Also do you know go to install a button for sport mode so I don't have to make the 3 clicks? Lmao that latter question was made in jest to be clear
