Somebody needs to pay you to do ALL instructional videos. Awesome content
Thank you, I’ve always done it. I just never video taped it. I wish I started with my classic cars.
Excellent video! Very clean install. I added both a switch panel and LED light strips and the setup is 10000% cleaner than what I would have installed without this video.
Thank you, I’m glad it helped. Have a great day.
Thank you, Fred. This was a very helpful video.
Happy to help, it’s a great use of that space. Hey, have a great day.
Hey Fred, thanks for your videos, they are very informative. FYI - the "line"" is on and the "0" is off in electrical terms.
Thank you so much, I never new the correct way that it was supposed to go. Thank you my friend, have a great day.
Thank you for this video, after watching it I ordered one for my Maverick
Mike
Great, hundreds of people have done it and they are very happy with it. If you have any questions please feel free to ask or there are a bunch of Q/A in the comments. Good luck, have a great day
Hey Fred, thank uou for the great videos! I just finished installing this set up with the lights!!! I put the panel inside the cubby because I have one on each side. It was easy to do following yiur directions for the wiring and installation. Will post some pictures tomorrow. Thanks again, keep up the good work!
Great job, yes if I had a cubby on both sides I would also place it in there. Hey, have a great day
Ordered the outlet while I watched. Love the maverick content, just got mine.
Great, hope it’s an easy installation. If have any questions please feel free to ask. Also if you haven’t could you please subscribe, I’m getting close to the magical 1000 subscribers. Thanks and good luck.
Fred great job explaining all steps of the installation process ! Keep up the good work
Thanks, I really appreciate your comment. I will have a new Maverick video tomorrow. You have a great day.
You are really good at this Fred.
Thank you so much. Have a great day.
Great video Fred will be adding switches Thank you for your good information and explaining how to install.
Thank you, glad you liked it. Have a great day.
Did it, works great, thank you!
Very easy, I used a Dremel tool with a tiny cutting disk to cut the plastic. I think a jigsaw is a bit too violent for the job.
Hey, thats great. It’s so convenient when it’s done. Have a great day.
Great video Fred! I might consider doing this.
Thanks, since Ford has already pre wired the bed it makes sense. Tomorrow I will add the bed lights and we can see how it looks in the dark. Thanks for the comment and have a great day.
Will give it a shot ! Perfect to place a LED switch
Great, let me know how you make out.
I just got my panel an extra switch. Can you post a wire diagram for the new switch and all the wires. that would very helpful. I'm not a good electrician. I also got the bed lights you posted but I didn't find the panel light you suggested. Your info and videos are great, I'm glad I subscribed. Looking forward to more of your Maverick mods. I also got the side fender lights you introduced in you past videos, they are fantastic. A big improvement.
Did you already install the fender light? Hope it was easy. When you say panel light do you mean the little light that could me attach to it he panel? I will try to figure out how much o post a diagram. Maybe I can somehow post a link to a photo in the description page. Or I can make a short and upload that? Let me look at it tomorrow. Talk to me up soon
Hey, I posted a drawing on my facebook page. Hope it helps, let me know.

As far as the panel light goes, I never added on because the bed light were extremely bright. But I used 6 bed lights. I had 2 left over. I would have just cut the plug off one of the lights and drill a small hole in the panel and just wire the panel light with the headlights. Diagrams on prior post. Good luck
That's a good looking color for the Maverick
Thanks, that was the hardest part was picking the color. I really like the new terrain, it does look great in photos but it looks amazing in person. Hey, thanks for the comment and you have a great day.
Your videos are awesome! I have a 23 ford maverick and have wanted to do upgrades like these. Your videos gave me the confidence to attempt these. Would you do a good light in the bottom of the front bumper video? I’d like to try it, but would feel much better with your tutorial!
Sure, explain to me what type of light your talking about? Thanks
@@fredsgarage1925 I’m not sure the exact style yet. Taking off the front bumper and putting it back on without breaking something and tying in the electrical is what I was hoping in guidance. Thanks!
I was hoping for some fog lights with a switch in the dashboard to turn them off and on
@brenttacardon7321 good luck, take your test me and I’m sure you will do a great job
I like it! I have the XLT luxury package with the light ..but I am thinking on adding this on the opposite side and hook up strip lights with that switch.. thanks for sharing! If you have any pointers on that subject let me know.. thanks Fred..
Thanks, I’m making a video today on hooking up bed lights, it should be posted Saturday. Have a great day.
Fred, is the power supply back there always hot, ign, or batt? I want to do something similar to what you did but the answer to this will effect how I implement. Thanks so much.
Hi, that power supply is only hot for 90 minutes after you turn the Maverick off. Ford did it that way to save the battery. All you have to do after the 90 minutes is just turn the ignition on and off for another 90 minutes. If you are going to wire it directly to the battery you should consider upgrading the 12 v battery. Ford installed a pretty cheap battery. In the Maverick. Good luck.
Fred thanks again for the video.
I already have a three gang switch panel with with three u s b outlets, And a twelve volt cigarette plug, And 3 of the boat switches. Had I seen your switch panel before? I bought this one I would have got it. I could not find one with just 2 Switches, So my third switch will be Use for something in the future. I decided to go with the 12 V. Cigarette lighter plug in as I have a 400 W. Inverter that will plug in and also a small compressor that uses a cigarette lighter Plug outlet. I also have the l e d light strips to go in the bed for each side. So I may need a little guidance when I get ready to do this and hopefully this video will help
thanks again
Thank you, glade the video could help. I have a video on wiring the lED lights. Any questions you might have just leave a comment. Have a great day. See ya
@@fredsgarage1925 sorry for the speech to text errors on my comments
@cecilfreeman6147 no problem
Hey Fred, can you provide a wiring diagram for your setup? Thanks!
Here you go, it in my Facebook page. Here is the link. facebook.com/share/p/KTNGKcXsK3KA9MVr/?mibextid=WC7FNe
@@fredsgarage1925 Perfect. Thanks Fred!
@VanBoy anytime, good luck
Any chance you could upload a picture or show how to wire the switches, 12v and usb? Mine came unwired and with no instructions
Ya, I think I have one, I’ll look for it. I also did it for someone else. Look in the comments and I’ll look for a copy.
@fredsgarage1925 thanks... yes , I scrolled through the comments, it says you uploaded an image to your Facebook page, I clicked on it but it said it's not there anymore. I appreciate the help
@@andrecheats I’ll find it or I’ll draw it again
@fredsgarage1925 thanks again, no rush, whenever you have spare time.
@andrecheats it’s on my Facebook page, I just uploaded some photos.
Ok
Okay
Ok
Okay.
@@fredsgarage1925 got mine last week same color as yours. Love it.
@fredlopez9160 I really love the color, it was supposed to be velocity blue, but it was delayed to a 2023 and Ford changed the color to atlas blue, which is so much nicer. Hey congratulations, it you have any questions, just ask.
