Driver’s View Camera in an EcoSport

EtenyLeave a comment

In an attempt to better capture and document our road adventures, I have installed a driver’s view camera, mounted in the head rest of our EcoSport. The camera mount is designed to capture photos and videos from the perspective of the driver, without blocking the driver’s view. To view a sample video in which this mount was used, click here.

Dual-Color LED Fog Lights

EtenyLeave a comment

EcoSport’s stock halogen fog light bulbs may be upgraded to dual-color LEDs. These LEDs feature white and yellow colors that may come handy in various weather conditions. Switching between white and yellow is as simple as pressing the on-off switch (depending on your preference, tri-color LEDs are also available in the market).

Replacing EcoSport’s Fog Light Bulb

EtenyLeave a comment

Fog lights are very useful in illuminating the road during weather conditions that may hamper visibility, such as heavy rains and fog. It is important to replace busted fog lights as soon as you notice them.

EcoSport’s fog lights use an H11 halogen bulb. This can be replaced by an H11-compatible LED lamp.

Head Up Display (HUD) Road Test

EtenyLeave a comment

A Head Up Display (HUD) is any transparent-display device that eliminates the need to look away in order to access information. It is usually placed horizontally on the dashboard so that its reflection can be seen clearly by the user, without having to look down on the instrument cluster, thus, keeping the ‘head up’. You may also install an HUD device on any compatible vehicle (e.g., with an OBDII port) such as an EcoSport

Installing an LTO RFID Sticker

EtenyLeave a comment

We have finally received the registration plate of our EcoSport. LTO-issued plates come with a pair of stickers, one of which has an embedded RFID tag. The stickers must be installed on the windshield, behind the rear view mirror (installing one sticker on top of the other). In this video, I have shown how I installed the sticker set (one transparent and one with the RFID tag) in an EcoSport.
