This cheap copy set of crossbars is for '11-15 Explorer roof racks. The poor instructions show the steel nuts inserted wrong, so I had to flip them. And the rear bar was too long, so I had to bandsaw it & re-drill a screw hole. But they look OK.

I had no use for the dash tray, and I didn't like the look of the screw holes in it, so I got a speaker grill from the JY, removed the speaker, and modified the top edge of the center stack panel. Most people try to modify the speaker grill, but most...

Most of the wrap was removed before the auction, except the front tow point cover, and some scraps around the door handles & taillights.
