Taking the brave pill and trying out ceramic coating
I spent a day - yes a whole day, Ceramic coating my car. If you want to see how hard or difficult this job is, then dive in ! The coating I choose was the Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light along with EXO to cover over it.

Jaguar F-Pace How to install the illuminated trunk tread plate
Переглядів 3,5 тис.Рік тому
Ridiculously easy install. This is more to reassure people that they can do this, rather than a how to :-). Installed one of these in a Range Rover Sport, and that is way more complicated than this. Also note that this is using T4A4073PVJ, which is the earlier part (pre MY21) rather than the later part on MY21 car.

This is a more elegant solution, that takes its electrical feed from the overhead console next to the camera.

Also 24 slopes most of the time sound a lot better than 12's. Also get a UMik to tune it properly using REW you will be REALLY surprised how great this DSP Amp can sound 🔊👍

    Great video I don't think people realize how easy most of it is. My dad had a 2017 f-Pace and he now has a 2021 F-Pace and both of them had the wire harness in the rear and under the front door sils for the lighted tread plates as well. I got a 23' F-Pace S went to install, which would now be my third time installing this item on an F-Pace and the rear wiring harness is nowhere to be found, just doesn't exist back there. I still have the front ones for the door sils but nothing in the rear . Went to the dealership and they said I just don't have it, but they couldn't tell me what model it was put in or what option i needed to buy to have it. I just think they didn't have an answer as to why it was not there... maybe I miss heard you, but did you say that the post 21' item was more expensive than the pre- 21' MY? because in the US the 2017 sill cost over $500US and the 2021 sill direct order from the dealership only cost $179 US. Take Care

In the UK the earlier model £121, and the later £470.I have a SVR, but while the rear bumper is different I doubt it impacts the treadplate.

They had put swirl marks and scratches and hard water spots on every panel. Now I can find one scratch. Tomorrow is Adam's Advanced Graphene ceramic coating day. I am concerned that in Florida even inside the garage I have small bits of oak pollen and tiny bugs that can land on the surface after I do the IPA or Panel Wipe and will that not get locked in the ceramic coat.
