+1. There's really no good way. About every 3 or 4 days I use a detailer spray to wipe off the fingerprints. 🫤
That strap idea looks pretty good. Certainly better than the one that you have to cut the latch housing to install.
Available on Etsy.
That may have been the one I saw. Can't remember, but too bad it's not available for the DH.
One thing I love about these cars for sure. No power steering pump or fluid, and everything is LED. No bulbs to change.
Looks like it'll be more cosmetic than functional. I had great fog lights on my Legacy GT and STI. I kind of miss them. There's a vendor out there that makes those same inserts with actual fog lamps. I'd probably go for that. Lights like these would definitely give your car character.
@JimiHendrix
I think you did great. @108k plus options, you got a fair price. The consumer is always at a slight disadvantage when you're not negotiating on a car that's sitting on the lot.
I am very excited for you. 👍👍👍
Thanks everyone. I'm honestly not stressed about it. I just didn't have any idea about the frequency or what to expect. Also nice to know that customizations are saved unless you do an actual reset. At this point I'm just going to sit back and let things happen naturally.
@Sofa King @rugedraw 👍
Now I'm starting to pay attention to this. I haven't had any updates since I purchased the car in March. I have auto update enabled, any day at 1:00 a.m. The car is connected to my home Wi-Fi.
I've tried checking for updates through the Ford app and also directly through the sync 4 system...
I got a printed copy in the trunk of my vehicle at delivery. It was with the front license plate mount that I told them not to attach.
The copy was from 12/25 which was when my car was built. I suspect there were some changes between then and March '26 when I bought it. I prefer an...
@beefcake ,
All of the links for the RSA Transmissions are broken on your website. When you click on the more info buttons you get a 404 error. Starting prices look great!
Online version also available.

Greetings,
Should be. You should be entitled to any active promotions available when you negotiate and purchase the vehicle. Read the fine print. Make sure it doesn't say that you have to take delivery from current inventory. You shouldn't be penalized for something they don't have in stock...
Adding to the topic. I spoke with TJ at Steeda. He said they don't have a solution for the 2026 at this time. 🫤. Maybe someday. A front camera and *bonus* sensors would really round these cars out.
@brucemerc,
I just purchased a J&L for the passenger side. I dont think you need both sides. I think the PCV side is enough. There are a few options and going third party is less expensive as @Neggytive mentioned. In the long run I think it's a worthwhile low cost upgrade.
@Jirees98,
To remove the cover, put your pry tool in the 3:00 position. Push gently and pop the cover out of place. I used a tiny screwdriver with some blue tape on it to protect the paint. It requires very little force and will come right out. There's a small retention clip located at...
I just started messing with this myself. I think he needs to program the station presets so the car doesn't switch between different sources.
Whoops I posted without refreshing the page, so yes @DarkkMatter just confirmed it.
Sorry this happened. I'm still getting used to the lines on the back up camera when parallel parking. You've got to remember your mirrors though. If its loose, I'd probably take it to a body shop. Chalk it up as a "note to self" don't do this next time.
Unfortunately, it's largely subjective. If a particular shop or tech decides something doesn't comply or constitutes tampering you will fail visual. CARB was allowed to make sweeping regulations that make absolutely no sense. The "we know better" mentality. My parents who are older have...
