HotPotato Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 Installed a subwoofer and amp --- sounds AMAZING. My long, painful, expensive car audio odyssey draws to a long-awaited and finally-satisfying close.http://fordcmaxhybridforum.com/topic/1570-has-anyone-installed-an-amplifier-in-their-c-max/page-2(my final posts at bottom of page) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaswirl Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I got my windows tinted! 35% rear windows and hatch, and 50% on front windows. It looks really good on the White Platinum color. Very pleased.Can we see a picture of your tint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertiv Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Can we see a picture of your tint? Ooops. Missed this earlier. Gotta get her cleaned up a bit (we've been getting lots of little snowfalls, leaving the car really dirty.) I'll get to it pretty soon.

Bruce Z Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 Got my front seat weather tech floor mats and installed them promptly. The look and fi perfectly. This will definitely keep the floor clean and make it easier to just remove and rinse the floor mats when they do get dirty.

fotomoto Posted January 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Changed the oil at 20K miles. Previous was 9800 before a summer trip. Indicator hasn't come on but it was too nice of a day to pass up the opportunity to give her some love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotomoto Posted March 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Installed some cheeeeep DRL's from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GO7TESW/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 My local radio shack didn't have the correct relay so they aren't fully functional till next weekend. I wired them direct just to observe them. Very bright but reliability and longevity remain to be seen (pun intended).

mtb9153 Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 they always say if you want it to rain...wash your car. It doesn't seem to work very well here in northern california where we need allot of rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foto, Many thanks for posting this, and for taking the trouble to do the temporary light-up to show the full effect. This is one of the very best looking cosmetic C-max dress-ups i've seen, and absolutely the best "bang for the buck" ! - or should I say "bling for the buck" ? Please do post as to how the relay lighting goes. Jack JAZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinko Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 This morning when I walked my husband to his car in the garage I said Good Morning Max :hat_tip: to mine.I said the same thing today hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotomoto Posted April 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Please do post as to how the relay lighting goes. Thanks Jack. I hope to add the other set to the wife's CMax this weekend. I'll take some pics when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbov Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Installed a hitch receiver. Took about an hour due to dull drill bits. Me, too, but I did the Torque Lift, no-drill version. No idea why Curt didn't go this route... only problem was undercoating in the unused bolt threads. Have fun,Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bro1999 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Installed an Eco-hitch, along with 2 yakima high roller bike racks sandwiching a Curt cargo rack (just enough room), all on a Rhino Rack roof rack system. Also have a Thule hitch mount cargo box which isn't pictured. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bro1999 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) What kind of fuel economy are you getting when riding around with the top empty, compared to not having one? Well, I own an Energi, so I can't give you straight mpg #'s, but I can give you efficiency numbers with naked roof vs roof racks + Curt cargo basket. Completely naked roof: 89.5 miles / 21.7 kWh = 4.12 miles/kWhRack + cargo basket: 87.7 miles / 26.4 kWh =3.32 miles/kWh 19% reduction in range. I would think the MPG hit in the hybrid would be similar? I only counted my regular commuting trips. I almost always drive between 55-60 mph, 75/25 highway/city split. This data was collected over the past 2 months. Edited May 5, 2014 by bro1999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bro1999 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) Wow, that is a pretty big hit in mileage! Yeah, I didn't realize until today just how much of a hit it was. I've still been able to make my roundtrip commute (17 miles) on battery alone, which is one reason I've left it the basket up there. It's a big PITA to install that thing. I'm just pulling numbers out of thin air, but my guess is taking the basket off and having just the roof bars on top would reduce the range loss around 10%.

TopherTheME Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 It finally went above 65F today so I decided to put on one of those Ford Aplique's they have for the C-max. The crappy cell phone pictures don't really do it justice. The gray lettering and detail is actually a sparkly silver that matches the pearl paint of the car. Maybe I'll take some pictures with an actual camera after I wash my car. Cmax Bumper by TopherTheME, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotomoto Posted December 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Checked and aired up all 4 tires after warning sensor went off. Overnight cold front has lowered temps enough they were all in the trigger borderline region (30-35psi). C-MaxSea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
