Completely a DIY mod. I took apart one of the door projector lights, cut off the mounting tabs. I drilled a hole in the hatch switch panel the same size as the clear lens but not as big as the black plastic lens housing. I made an alum ring with a inner diameter the same as the round lens housing and "JB" welded it to the switch panel. The lens fits snugly in the alum ring and the actual LED and circuit board sits on top of that etc.... It sits at an angle on the plastic switch panel, so I filled the angle with JB Weld.

Can you post a few photos of the mounting location. Thx.

Got my Greenlane step installed much easier than I expected. I added more pictures to see the bump out feature on these. For reference these are the flat style. Hopefully soon I’ll get to the tires.

I performed an oil and filter change at 1200 miles, and while it was all apart under the vehicle hosed it down with a bunch of Amsoil MPHD undercoating to inhibit corrosion from road salts this winter. Took about 3.5 cans.

Then discovered a screw in the drivers side front tire.

Marked it with a paint pen, I will get it fixed later this week.

This Amsoil MPHD sounds really interesting. I bought a couple cans of Inox to be used in same manner but this stuff might be better.

I’m pretty sure it’s just cosmoline with some other chemicals and an aerosolized thinner to allow it to spray. I didn’t know how much it would take so I ordered 12 cans.

Guess I have enough for the next 3-4 years LOL.

I had the same when I picked up Miss Daisy July 28, only it was on the outside of the shoulder. They replaced the tire before I left the dealership..

After a lot of grief and cursing, got the goose plate in. Parts missing/incorrectly sized, but got it secured enough. Looks good at least. Not much looking forward to the installation process of the seat delete now though

What did the total package cost?

Including the seat delete?

Yes. Everything.... And did you get both seat deletes or just one side

Not terribly exciting, but got my first oil change and mounted up 275/60/20 snow tires. Went with the General Artic Grabber. Fills the wheel well better than stock.

Both seat deletes+plate system cost 3090. The front base plate side screw holes are missing their threading so I’ll need to wood glue to triangle pieces (fortunately they’re just aesthetic)

The bolts that secure the whole system to the car are definitely incorrectly sized. I think they must have not used metric which seems like a pretty big oversight. Their instruction manual is also wrong on multiple parts (location of 40mm and 60mm bolts is swapped, listed socket size for aforementioned bolts is too small, no mention of removing the T-bolt slider from the main plate, and more)

The actual quality of the parts is good, but the above problems are definitely not reflective of that price point.

Agreed. Thank you
