  1. I installed the Customdynamics DRL light tubes today (part TF21WS). These are the same LED tubes that Smangerer installed, but in white instead of amber color. The 5.1 inch smoke colored tubes fit perfectly in the lower left and right black fascia as shown in the photos. I tapped into the hot wire that Brother Mike noted in his earlier post in this thread. I think it is the interior LED dome light circuit because the lights stay on 30 seconds after the last door is shut after turning off the car.
  2. Yeah, that is what I was asking. In the photo you posted the headlights are off. I ordered the white 6500K type am thinking they will appear brighter than the amber color.
  3. Thanks for the tip. I assumed that the light would fire straight forward. The way that you mounted them (wires to right), is the light projected slightly upward or downward? I am thinking that slightly upward would be better because the light bar is mounted very low on the vehicle.
  4. Great, that helps a lot Smangerer. I read that the LED strips have 36 inches of 26 gauge wire attached which is thin enough to fish through small spaces as you did. Do you turn on the LED strips when driving at night with the headlights on or are they too bright to do that?
  5. Thanks for posting the info and photos of the wire in the fusebox that you connected the DRLs to. I have an Energi and will take a look to see if my car has the same colored wire that you used. I wonder what the function is for that wire? Because your DRLs behave the same as the amber front parking lights maybe that is what the grey/blue striped wire is for?
  6. Thanks for the information Smangerer. I just ordered the True Flex 5.1 inch led light bars from Custom Dynamics. I like the location that you placed the led bar. Did you drill a hole in the lower plastic grill to pass the wires through? I am trying to figure out how to get the wires from the lower grill to the fuse block in the engine compartment. Any tips would be appreciated.
  7. Can the C-Max Hybrid manual be downloaded from Ford or another website?
  8. Are the navigation maps stored on a memory card somewhere in the vehicle?
  9. On the last page of the PDF M-Max brochure I downloaded from the Ford website it says that one of the features is a "Perimeter Alarm". This is listed in the Exterior Features in the brochure. Does anyone know what this means? I have been trying to locate an online C-Max manual to try to figure out what it means but I can'l locate a C-Max manual on the Ford website.
