StarKnightMT Seat Cover Review
Quick review of the StarKnightMT seat covers for the UForce1000. Click the link below to check them out for yourself. Overall, I think they seem like a pretty decent option at their price point for people looking to protect their original seats. I think there could be some improvements made to make them a bit more "fitted", and some additional straps to help secure them a bit more, but overall, they seem to be well made. I'm not impressed however with the headrest covers, but I don't feel like they are a critical piece of the overall kit.

What brand was the pans you used? Looks really good too man.
Thanks saved me a lot of time that solved the charging problem.
Great video, what part number for the spot weld cutter please?
😊Thank you Sir, it was indeed the starter solenoid.
I replaced the fuse even tho it was good. Battery charged, replaced the kill switch but nothing is helping. The dash and soundboard come on but nothing when I turn the key. Ugh
@RobertFields-qr7dr I'm not 100% certain, and I'm not around my machine to look at it, but I believe there is a starter solenoid on these machines. I'd start with making sure there is power to that, and that there is Voltage at the trigger wire when the key is turned to the crank position.
Great video! When I took apart my 2023 1000xl under the box my blue and orange wires ran continuously to the lights and the wire with the green and yellow stripe was spit several times. Any advice on how to proceed with this? Thanks!
Instead of doing all that rewiring on the back end, why not put an LED on the back and wire to the LED's in the front bumper?
I'm not a fan of the way it looks having LEDs drilled into or surface mounted on the bed. Honestly, I'm not super thrilled about them in the front bumper either, but on the bed, they are susceptible to being damaged easily when loading or unloading things from the bed. Using the existing lights is a cleaner, more professional looking end result in my opinion.
@@NewcomerGarage Makes sense, thanks for the reply, brother!

What’s up with stupid music
Unfortunately, options for Copywrite free music that won't get flagged by YT is limited. I am not a musician so I am unable to make my own music for use in my videos. I have even used music from sites specifically for Creators and YT will still flag it... sorry if it's not to your liking, but you can't please everyone all the time...
Appreciate your kind suggestions! 😀Thank you for your amazing video.
Did you do 2 in in front and back? Or 2 in front .75 back? Looks good!!
2" front and rear.
This worked out good for our CFmoto. Thanks for the educational video 🍻
Thank you so much! This video was incredibly helpful. I wound up using the exact same components and it made for a really nice clean install. As far as the winch to switch control, I know where the wires are. I was going to T tap into them and run them to my switch. Did you just run the 3 wires (switched power and the two poles)? Do I need to ground the switch? Thanks for your time.
Yes, it's just the 3 wires for the winch switch, but if I recall, you'll need to jump the switched 12v wire to the terminal for the light on the switch and also a ground wire if you want the switch to light up. Also, I'd strongly recommend against using the T-tap style connectors that just pinch on the existing wires. They cause damage to the conductors and have a tendency to cause corrosion. Check out my automotive and powersports wiring videos. I covered a lot about different types of connections in those videos!
The 2024 models are a lot easier. The wires are plugged into the blanks
I just purchased a hisun 400 4x4 quad and the battery ground wire was lose tighten it up and run bad cold warmed up and run better but now I noticed I have a check engine light on so my question is where do you get a OBD tester at for these quads
You didn't explain anything you were doing
You are correct. If you watched the first few minutes of the video, I explained that there are numerous other step by step videos out there if you need someone to show you every nut and bolt to remove. This was just a general overview of the process and the parts I used.

May I ask how you got the bed panels off? Do they just pull off?
If I recall correctly, there are two clips on the front edge to remove between the bed and the cab, and then there are a few clips that are molded into the panel that can be released with a panel removal tool or a screwdriver and pull straight out.
@@NewcomerGarage perfect. Thanks man. Appreciate it. I love the color.
Much appreciated! I’ve got a ‘23 XL and just did this very same mod and it worked beautifully. Thanks for saving me the time of color coding the rear wiring.
Hello does anyone know why the main 40 amp fuse melts?
Do you have a video on wiring the winch switch?
the 83 didn't come with the options sticker under the truck lid, the 84 did have the options sticker under the trunk lid.
I just came across your page. All I see is an 83 H/O and Illinois plates. where in Illinois? I'm in Illinois also 20 minutes from St. Louis. We have several guys with H/O's here. My 84 along with 2 other 84 guys and 2 other 83 guys. we are looking at meeting up with some other from the area some time, you should join us. what # is yours?
Very clean install!! Thats alot better than i can do!!
Nice video, man.. what did you do with the bass boost knob? Did you install and mount it under dash?.. or opted not to use it?.. thank you
I didn't want it on the dash. (I think they look tacky) The radio I'm using has subwoofer level control on it if needed.
I believe Mikes Montes sells original Gm quarter panels still..worth the money..not sure if you knew that but yeah..now you know for your future builds..Mr.Keiths Gbody parts sells alot of good Original Gbody stuff as well..and yes he has Cutlass and Regal parts as well
I’ve got a 78 cutlass brougham that needs this done in the same exact spot! What is the general cost to get this done? Your vids are great by the way.
Hey man, I have a 2023 and bought the necessary items. Mine isnt working correctly. Heres what its doing.. OK, left side of utvs front blinker light flashes really fast as I told you last year. The rear one is very very faint and flashes fast also with it started or off. The right side front works normally when started, but when I hit the brake it flashes fast and shitty like the left side. When key on engine off it flashes fast, the rear is bright. Any ideas? Thanks
Not sure on that. Did you follow my step by step video or this short one? I know that the '22 and up units use a different flasher and switch than the '21 and older units. Make sure you ha e the correct ones. If you used a trailer wiring g module like I did, make sure it is compatible with LED lights or you'll end up with a bunch of goofy stuff like what you're describing.
@NewcomerGarage yes, I used the Hopkins 48895, flasher FLASHER, CFMOTO OEM - 5HYV-161000-1G01. I got a schematic from someone that did it also. I did however use different lights than you guys did. I used CoCsmart-002 from Amazon
@BusterWalls Not sure what's going on. I would start with disconnecting the Hopkins module and seeing if the front lights then start working properly. If they are still wonky, disconnect the front lights and see if the dash indicators flash properly. Basically keep chasing the problem back to the start. I haven't used the lights that you have, but it's possible there is a feedback issue with them since they are "dual element" lights. I've also had bad trailer light modules. Most issues that I've heard of from people that have done it with the same components as I used and followed my other video have been "installer error" and missing steps not isolating the wiring on the trailer module properly. Seeing as how you used a schematic from someone else, I can't be for certain where the issue is.
@@NewcomerGarage thanks man! I appreciate it! I'll get to work on it. Lol. What a pain!
If you could do it again would u do rockers with the floor pan out or no
No, the floorpans being in or out doesn't affect the rocker panel replacement.
@@NewcomerGarage thank you, watching your videos as I'm doing the same amount of metal replacement for my wife's 87 monte.
Where did you get the doors and what brand are they
The doors are from DFK Hardcabs. I ordered the cab kit through my dealer when I bought my machine.
Well done especially balancing life with projects. You mentioned you could not weld the inner/outer together first? Why was that?
If the body was off of the frame, you could probably fight the inner and outer in together as one piece and weld the floor pan to the inner from underneath on the back side. With the body still mounted on the frame, you don't have any access to weld the inner rocker to the floor pan unless you leave the outer rocker off and plug weld it. Even if I had pulled the body off the frame though, I'd probably still do them separately to make it easier to fit the panels in the correct orientation like they are from the factory in the area between the rear wheelwell and the B pillar. (The inner structure of the body actually gets "sandwiched" between the inner and outer rockers in that area and would be a pain to align if installing as one piece.)
Uh. Cool doors
I have a 2023, tied into the front ground and baby blue (passenger side) but I’m not getting 12 volts from there. Tried the driver side and same thing. I got the oem switch and the flasher module which for the 2023 is a different part number but I can’t figure out why I’m not getting 12v. Getting around 4-6v. I used the same ground and tested another cable in the harness and I do get 12v. Any ideas?
I read it depends on your voltmeter and how quickly it cycles. Mine also was showing, somewhat erratically, like 3-6 volts as it blinked. Worked fine though.
Yup 100% right. I also was trying to use sequential led lights for turn signals and those did not work with the flasher module. Wired regular led light and that did the trick. Thanks!
It’s painful to watch sorry🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Man really helped me out was about to load it up take it to the dealer thought the stator was bad really preciate it man!!
Where would you start when needing to do a floor pan, inner and outer rockers?
Start by removing all of the interior and seeing what all actually needs replaced. If it needs a full floor pan, I'd look into just buying replacement seat mounts rather than trying to salvage the old ones. Make sure you have all of the new panels on hand and start scraping the old seam sealer off to expose the edges of the panel that needs to be replaced. Locate and remove spot welds to remove the old pan.
Fell asleep
That's a really clean build, wow. Maybe you can help me..I bought a used 2019 1000 and the illumination of the wiper switch is always on. Same cab like yours wirh the heater. Any idea how I can change the connection / plug so that is linked to the key and not always on? Thank you!
Are you 100% certain that it's on all the time? I know mine has power for approx. 30 seconds after turning the key off, and then it will shut down. Unless they rewired it all, it should have plugged into an OEM connector under the dash for the heater and wiper.
@@NewcomerGarage oh good to know about the delay. I checked it right after engine shutdown. I will take a look if it will turn off after some time. Thanks !
good job but to be definitively efficient, you should put grease everywhere. grease et the only thing very efficient against rust. put grease between metal and carpet, inside door, behind metallic bumper, under the vehicle, behind the repairs you can make (everywhere inside the body - hidden erea - instead of using paint), hollow areas (necessarily hidden, so no need to be aesthetic). For rear wings unreachable with a paintbrush, use an extender and poor old oil everywhere each year.Handyman Experience - 35 years. From france

No such thing as a 500 tj
Never said the TJ was $500. The audio system is $500. Technically, this Jeep was free to me as I inherited it when my aunt passed away...
We hooked up the flasher and turn signal switch. Now the running lights shut off when turning the signal on. The dim turn off and the high beam stay on. Any ideas on a fix?
What year is your machine, and are you in the USA?
2023 in the USA
@hffhtgdhg3224 I'm not familiar with the 2022-23 models, but I do know that there are some differences from the '21 and older models like mine. First of all, did you use the switch and flasher that I listed in the video description? If so, those are not the correct ones for the '22+ machines. If you used the correct parts for your year of machine, it might be a built in feature on the newer units much like newer vehicles that shut off the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) when the turnsignals are activated to make the turnsignals more visible. It's common in the automotive industry on vehicles that have the signal lights integrated into the headlight assembly like the OEM signal lights from CFMoto do.
it's going to take MASSIVE amounts of money to fix it !! ... you're looking at a few THOUSAND dollars just on a re-paint !!!!
I agree. If I were to pay others to "restore" the car, it would be an insane amount of money, and the value of the vehicle just wouldn't justify it in the end. However, if I do the work myself, I can use it as a learning experience, and if it doesn't turn out perfect, at least I didn't ruin a nice car learning!
I'm following you on your journey.i have an 86 Cutlass supreme f-41 special edition I'm doing some of the same things keep up the good work..thanks
Thanks for watching, I hope to keep moving forward with this project over this winter. I've been swamped with work this summer...
Do you have a “newer” model number for these? As in comparable as the one you used? I’m having a tough time locating that particular model.
Sorry, I dont... I've been out of that industry now for about 4-5yrs, so I'm not familiar with the current model numbers. Unfortunately, the Directed Electronics website (Directed.com) is almost worthless nowadays as far as researching model numbers and features. They basically want to force you to purchase the unit and have it installed by an authorized retailer. All the info in the video should basically pertain to all systems though.
@@NewcomerGarage ok.. I’m not certain I’ll do one anyway. It’s a neat thought but not needed for me. I followed your video on the turn signal install. Basically did mine identical. Just an fyi… mine is a 2023 Uforce 1000. Worked flawlessly. Of course needed a different flasher relay but that’s expected I suppose. Awesome videos man!
@richardf3294 Yeah, the remote starter is pretty much just a novelty item for me... I have a bunch of them sitting on a shelf in the garage that I would buy cheap when they would pop up for sale just to have for side jobs. My machine sits in a heated garage plugged into a battery tender, so I've honestly only remote started it a handful of times. But, if someone had one that sat out in the cold, it could be useful I suppose! Glad to hear the turnsignal video helped you out!
@@NewcomerGarage most definitely useful for outside units. Mine is one of those. lol. I’m currently battling a regulator issue. Didn’t want to pay Cfmoto price so I found one online(surely a knock off) but the connectors are slightly smaller than the factory plugs. So now I’m in the middle of chasing the correct size out for the one I purchased. Never knew they had multiple sizes of those plugs. Funny thing about it, it probably would have been a warranty fix but I don’t have a trailer personally to haul it to a dealer and I don’t want it sitting at one for who knows how long. Anyway, good content man.
Trying to find the blinker wire. Can’t find it anywhere. I found all the other wires but cannot find that one. Any thoughts?
The blinker wires are present in the factory wiring at either headlight and the harness on the bed by either taillight. Machines sold in markets outside of the US came with turnsignals, so the wiring is all there to use with the OEM lights. I go over all of the colors and locations in the video.
Do you know what gauge wire is being used?
For what exactly?
Never mind figured it out.
I have a 20222 Uforce 600. will this this work the same ?
I would suspect that it is a similar process, but I haven't personally worked on a 600.
It doesn't look bad on camera
