yup I got the ebay one for the dash. It's the console cup holders that seem to be mysterious.

It's the rear one I need. The one I ordered doesn't fit, it's too big.

I think the light bar instead of the big halogens really cleans up the look of your front end. Nice job

Well, I decided to ditch the metal light bar with 4 halogen lights and I put in the new economy line of Rigid LED light bars, decided on a 20" with white backlight. Bolted up SUPER easy just drilling two holes. Tested it out tonight and I'm impressed, since I pay wayyy below retail for these things it was hard to pass up plus its getting dark here quickly.

Also installed clear corners which really cleaned up the front. I'm just not into the 05-07 lights call me crazy.

Next will be installing the snow plow mount, wiring and Rigid DOT fog lights in mounted flush with the 2011 lower valance plastic.

Nice clean install. How is the light output of that bar? How far, if any, do they throw light?

What's the difference between that one and the stock one?

CharlyG 10-07-2016 10:28 AM

the holders are made of stiff plastic, are a little deeper, and actually hold a cup. My original was some odd/strange gizmo that couldn't hold an empty paper cup..kinda like the front console(not holding a cup). I can't speak for the back of the console as mine is missing and I now have the newer rear cup holder that doesn't fit...

And if you didn't own an Excursion you probably prepared by securing your car like this...

It's pretty good, I'm not sure I have the aiming exactly where I want it yet but here are some photos from this morning. I took a video but our WIFI is down at work so I can't upload it from my phone right now.
