    The first time I saw this video, I did not get half way through it before I thought, "NOPE!" But I really liked the emblem and thought it would look cool on my 2020 Lariat. So decided to watch the video over and over again until the steps seemed less intimidating and started making sense. Pretty soon I started seeing the steps in my head. The instructions are pretty thorough and the install was easier than I initially thought. The one thing I wished he had mentioned is that you will need to cut a notch in the underside of the fuse box lid. Otherwise you will end up pinching the cable when you put the lid on. Other than that, this is an excellent video and I could not be happier with how it looks. Thank you!

    Well, I bought one. Found a shortcut too. Remove the hood latch and you’re able to remove the emblem with a 1/4” 6 inch ratchet extension

      I did the same. Waaay easier! Then I taped the nuts to the socket in order to attach the new emblem.

    I just hooked a chain onto my grill and wrapped the other end around a street light and threw it into reverse. A lot quicker method. Did cost me a lil more in the long run than I wanted to spend but job complete!

    the equivalent to the "#18 fuse spot" (Ignition switch and passive-entry passive-start start stop switch) in a 2021 f150 is not under the hood, but below the passenger seat inside the cabin... how am I supposed to connect the wiring????

    • @Realtruck
      @Realtruck  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Mark, we think that you may have to extend the wiring for that application, but you may want to call Putco directly to see if they have another solution for the 2021. Their number is 800-247-3974. Hope that helps!

      @@cdnconcrete392 there’s enough room directly behind the grill and the shutters to get your hand back there with a small wrench/spanner to get the nuts off, you will probably get scraps and cuts on your hand and wrist but it’s worth the little bit of pain and grief over having to pull the whole front end off

    Just purchased for my 2018 f150, I was wondering what fuse location I would use so the light isn’t constantly running.

    • @Realtruck
      @Realtruck  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The design behind the lighted emblem is that it would remain illuminated as long as the truck is on. When the truck is turned off, the emblem light will turn off. By the way, if you want to see something really cool, we partnered with Travis Kelce to award a worthy recipient with the ultimate tailgating truck!
