Here:

It's not in front of the vent the upper part of the mount base clamps to the lower edge of the vent hole. I intentionally mounted the swivel higher to have the vent cool my wireless charger and phone. I'll keep the vent closed in winter to prevent overheating. It's close to the wiper stalk, a finger fits between the phone clamps and the stalk. This is due to my unusual setup: base + swivel + Arkon adapter for the charger/holder + a very thick wireless charger with large clamps. A base + phone specific holder is less than half of the overall depth of this. The pillar mount is more suitable for a standalone GPS or similar device you don't grab that often. It's expensive, true, but it's a good product. I also have Kenu vent grille clamps for occasional use. Expensive as hell for such a simple holder but also a high quality product. Have to connect a charger manually tho. Love the wireless holder.

No it's not. I have had Brodit mounts in all my vehicles and none have any marks after removing them: Tool-less installation, no drilling, sturdy and precise.

What's the correct pronoun for gender decliners?

Sounds like the opening scene to a movie. Are you insured against natural forces?

Top edge, where the glass meets the roof?

Haha, you win

I would make an H-shaped cut in the headliner under the bolt holes ( as I did with the Mk1 for replacing the antenna).

You won't deploy an airbag when the ignition is off and you are not crashing the car.

Transmission replacement takes 3 hours for a specialist, ideally, this includes disconnecting one end of the engine from the body to get the transmission out. Had my (manual) transmission replaced. The book also said 5+ hours but they managed to get it done in 3.

The reflector assy inside the cluster moves up and down. This has been a standard feature for all cars sold in Europe since the 80s. HIDs have to have automatic leveling. The headlight price is in some other headlight thread. I checked it a few months ago. EDIT: no, found the prices, it was a private correspondence with Nate.

Even tho the dial shows 5 positions (0..4) the knob makes nine clicks, so yes, it's like a 9-pos fan switch. The yellow screws on the the hood are for initial calibration.

You haven't managed to off your Scout tho. Metal.

I see you having no problems drilling into the console. I would probably die if I made a scratch on mine.

$5 was my first thought but it did not make any sense :D

I wonder how much Ford saved by removing the bulb from the rear cluster and making a stripped down light switch for the US market. Probably at least $8.

Fog light switches, top: front and bottom: rear.

Brodit has two more location options. Check their website.

Is your light switch the same but just in one piece then without the middle knob?

It's been done but it requires the whole loom from a donor car, not just the stalk. Someone did it with Mondeo bits IIRC.

No prob:

The adjustment knob pops out of the headlight switch. Just push the middle spot and adjust. Change to Osram Nightbreakers, makes a big difference at legal power levels.

Thanks. The tank looks like a spare. I thought of ordering a space saver but then discovered the original spare fits in the boot like a glove. I also have a can of Fix-a-flat foam. The gauges are independent (ECU cannot display LPG economy figures, it thinks it's gasoline), you can see the Prins button which selects the fuel source. The Prins logo is lit when the engine is running on LPG. The intensity of the LED under the button is ambient light sensitive, really nice touch.The button also has its own level indicator, see the arc of squares. The leftmost square turns amber (from normal blue) when there's 50 miles worth of LPG left. Running out it beeps and switches to gasoline.

Thanks for asking. I'm yet to learn the car's language but I'm trying to explain the immediate experience: throttle response is noticeably mushier on LPG right after you have switched the fuel source but you only register it for a little while and get used to it. Torque response is similar, it can still climb 12% inclines at 1500 rpm with no downshift there are moments when it takes a few seconds (2-3) to crank before the engine starts, this is due to the reason of LPG thinning at the injection pump. The circulation system takes care of having fresh LPG everywhere in the system but it may change at the right temperature and moment the shift points at acceleration are a bit higher running on LPG 20.6 mpg all time average on LPG for the 2400 LPG miles, total cost €225 So I'm almost at 50% savings in fuel costs. There's a significant pump capability difference in different stations, some are able to fill an additional gallon or more before stalling.

Anyone should be able to do it in an hour (plus getting the silicone tube, locking nuts and washers from a hardware store).
