The following is contributed by Scott Maxson on the forum on XLT302A retrofit. After looking at the nearly 80 pages of the Heated Steering Wheel Retrofit. I found no concise XLT install steps. Below is what I did for my XLT 302A 5.0 FX4 after reviewing the Heated Steering Wheel Retrofit forum...

Just so you know you can stick your phone camera into the little gap behind SCCM and check if there are 2 pins or a just a dummy socket. No need to disassemble anything. However if you need to check if your steering wheel comes with heated feature you will have to pop the airbag off. (just need...

Thanks in that case I don’t think I’d like to spend the extra on the raptor wheels. I thought those paddle shifters can directly down shift when accelerating.

Do you know what it takes to make the shifting paddles work on a non-raptor?

Thanks all for the details. I'm the OP of this long forgotten thread and I'm updating the first thread as much as I can. I wanted to do the retrofit myself but can't seem to find the HSW itself at a reasonable price right now. Everywhere I looked is around $500 new. The only cheap ones on ebay...

Installed Mickey Thompson Baja boss AT LT275/70R18 on stock wheels. Runs great can’t feel much difference driving at highway speed. Everything else is factory stock.

My ‘21 5.0 gets the same mileage as my previous ‘17 3.5eb I don’t think it gets much better. Get the hybrid or 2.7eb if fuel efficiency is a concern

Thanks! I have rattles from the exact same trim piece , driver side

My rear left door started rubbing the front door when opening with a huge squeak today. (Maybe it was rubbing a little bit but wasn’t as noticeable before). From what I can tell the reason is that the front door closes too tightly. I loosened the front door strike a little bit so it moved...

That’s very interesting. I guess chip shortage override emission standards. I have tried and failed to notice the cylinder deactivation on my 5.0. I guess it happens when cruising at certain speed but I just can’t feel anything myself. The auto start/stop is a bit annoying but I’ve got used to...

I moved from a 2017 3.5ecoboost to 2021 v8, the sound alone is worth all the lost of low end torque.

I got a 5.0 v8 with 3.31 too. Averaging about 13-13.5 l/100km in Toronto. I actually got the 3.31 by mistake, I ordered 3.73 rear axle but was delivered with a 3.31. It works fine so far.

I ordered a Lariat with front row bench seat and just realized it does not come with heated steering wheel. Granted it’s a first world problem I’d be very interested in getting it installed afterwards. anyone in the same situation and have made any attempts? Update: I haven't done it myself...

Can you simply use mounting tape?

Don’t have to take it off, simply use a trim tool to tuck the wire in.

I got a Lariat with front row bench seat, found out after delivery it doesn’t come with wireless charging pad, which renders the wireless CarPlay feature useless. Here’s what I settled after trying a few different products. - MagSafe charging pad (apple original) - A tri fold desktop phone...

Have you found a solution to this issue? I just took delivery of my truck and I'm experiencing similar problems. The hard piping on the left bottom bolster keeps digging into my thigh that makes is very uncomfortable. I had a 2017 F150 and the seats were very comfortable for me. Mine is a...
