    Mount nmo to bed cover?

    Not a good idea, the signal will be blocked by your cab and people in front wont hear you, the transmission path is very easily blocked. Best location is on your roof center of vehicle, I just drilled mine in the roof, grounded it and after signal test it's about perfect.

    The factory Bluetooth on your radio is for receiving signals not transmitting, so no. But you could put a Bluetooth transmitter on a "Y" splitter from any RCA signal to transmit and not loose must on signal strength.

    Phoenix Android Radio 4th Gen PX6

    Spent the day with support for this exact issue yesterday, the reverse camera did not activate, I was sent a few files on a flash then did, "Factory reset" and now it works fine. You may want to try doing a factory reset, might be enough to re-activate your camera. I will be installing my 360...

    Didn't see this in long thread but can anyone tell me the setting for install set - protocol, and car info? See pic. I changed something and now lost sync screen, also did not know to backup settings. I've compared all settings to excel provided but that didn't help. Thanks! Sent from my...

    Post Your Wheel and Tire Pics !

    After a few months and about 4-5 days of hard trails they are holding up very well, not chunking out, no visible damage of any kind. As for weight they are heavier then K02's or any other tire but the amount of tread is more then double, I estimate to get 50k out of these tires! I have about...

    Diamondback vs Undercover vs Truck Covers USA

    Diamondback is a solid metal surface you can drill and mount anything, I added bike mounts on top of front cover with no crossbars needed, also flat enough for any RTT. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Noise from engine after startup

    Open hood and remote start it, you may be able to narrow it down by getting up and close, my guess would be belt or pulley related?? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    2017 Raptor Twin Panel Moonroof or Not?

    My panorama roof on my last Land Rover was nice, I did have to replace the glass twice, when off-roading it would get a small rock trapped under side edge and cause it to crack. I don't know if I would want one for the Raptor if I was serious about off-road but for a street queen go for it.

    Your Raptors Audio System

    PAC unit is working great so far, originally I ran 3 sets of RCA cables from PAC to DSP which gave me Front, Rear and Sub output, now I have the optical TOSLINK adapter but this configuration only gives me R/L and I lose the option of Sub knob adjustment. Since I've only had this installed a...

    Back up camera question

    Zoom is a software function but not sure about lines, just hope it's not a controller issue, I would try a battery reset first just in case there is a s/w corruption. Sent from my SHIELD Tablet K1 using Tapatalk

    Your Raptors Audio System

    Yes I had summed the back signal as well on my DSP which was the only way you can get decent audio. I'm no audio expert but using a mic to tune DSP before and after adding the PAC is where I noticed a large delta in available frequencies. Prior I was unable to achieve a flat signal across 20-20k...

    Your Raptors Audio System

    I guess it's not super obvious on this thread but the factory head unit does not provide a flat signal and cuts off at 12khz so having a DSP is only part of the solution. You will need either a PAC unit or program your ACM for line level output and add an RCA adapter. Prior to my having the PAC...

    Yes, all chimes and Nav voice is retained, same on optical. ---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 AM ---------- You may have misread, no reason to access the amp or convert to low level, also a DSP is not as critical as using PAC device or Forscan...

    WTB 13-14 Raptor: what to look for?

    My first criteria was if it's under warranty still and buying the lowest miles for the best price. I did buy the extended warranty which is not always available when your factory warranty expires. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Roush boost gauge

    Update: I connected the gauge red wire temporarily to the variable output wire found on back of light switch. Using dimmer will do the following: Turns off LED light when set to very dim, turns on gauge LED but in RED at a medium setting and on max will turn on white LED (does not dim very...

    Projector Headlights and LED bulbs

    In my experience by adding LED bulbs to a projector housing does not work, the LED's emit light differently then both HID"s and Halogens so the projector lens needs to be specifically designed for the bulbs used. I have went thru many LED's mounted in projector lenses, first of all there are...

    Roush boost gauge

    I assume the power wire to the boost gauge is only for the light, the gauge should work regardless of power supplied so I was going to tap power from a dimmable source. Not much for input on this option from this thread, I will post back if this works.
