- Bumper Plugs (**** the dealer for putting a license plate holder in front)
- NUShield 8.4" and 10" Display protection
- Xpel Rear Bumper cover

No, I ordered the DIY kit for 2017 Chrysler Pacifica for $19.94 on ebay.

Xpel Ultimate PPF 60" x 6" Rear Bumper Applique Trunk Clear Bra DIY for Chrysler

I will post results after I apply it once I get it.

I am going to call a pro to apply the front clear bra later which will be costly on so I thought I could do just the trunk part for now

I am looking for a glass screen protector for the 8.4 and 10" screens. I have glass on my phone and it doesnt distort the display.

The Nushield screen protectors don't distort the screen at all. Not sure anyone makes glass screen protectors in the right sizes.

I would prefer a glass shield but I think the film as long as its good quality should be fine.

I decided I wanted to cover up the holes that the license plate that was mounted created so I used bumper plugs.
Thank you to PacificaJohn to recommend the bumper plugs in another thread.

They look good, like another set of front sensors so I am very happy with it.
Only thing initially that made me hesitate was that you need to drill larger holes for the plugs. My holes from the license plate was really small but overall I am happy.

Next is my Rear BackUp LED replacement

I got the JDM ASTAR 1200 Lumen 144-EX Chipsets 7440 7441 7443 7444 992 LED Bulbs with Projector Xenon White

These things are much bigger than stock and much brighter.

I asked my wife to help me out because I wanted to take a look at the rear backup lights so I had her brake and put the car into reverse.
I guess I had one of them backwards or something because one wasn't working and my wife told me **** you buy a new car and something already is not working but then she goes Oh.. you were modding.. LOL

Nope.. I wished they had cheaper ones but I decided paint matching was a must so I got the official ones.

Nice job with plugs, I wonder if it's possible to have the dealer not drill the holes in the first place before delivery?

I just replaced all 4 of my Vanity Light to all LED.

I got the LEDs from Super Bright LEDs (74-CWHP3)

I had to cut the LEDs slightly to make them fit because it was slightly too long..
I cut it and sanded it down smooth to have them fit nicely into the socket.

Wasn't easy but not too bad.

Took some pics of the bulbs vs LEDs.

The 2nd pic has a LED in the left side and on the right side is the OEM bulb.
Can you tell which is stock and which is the LED?

On to the Next Mod...

never been a fan of the blue accent from LED, rather stick to the yellow warmer feel from regular bulb, the increased brightness does come handy but doesnt overcome the other drawbacks

I have made a couple of dealer in the past replace the whole bumper cover as they couldn't follow directions (NO HOLES), most of the time they have papers taped all over the vehicle before it goes to PDI....on my ordered Pacifica, wow, every phone call was a list of what to do and no do. Everyone at the dealer including the night security guard knew (no holes on bumper for DUKES).

As far as the rear LED reverse lights, one side took much longer as it wouldn't work! finally with in and out, wire bending etc. it finally worked and I buttoned it up. They are bright and have been helpful.

I too, do not like an ordinary vehicle and mod every one of mine.....

So you will measure and cut it yourself?
Can you share the template once you figure it out?
Sure if it comes out ok, I will take a picture and share it.

Totally understand. It's just personal preference.. Even tho I do like mostly white light, I do sometimes like the yellow mixed in for the warm feel, especially in the house, for example my bathroom has bright yellow lights for the mirror but has a 5000k white bulb in the back for the shower.

Nice exterior mods on your Pacifica Damoncaravanman, woo that nick is a doosey to say...LOL

How much did the running boards cost you? I might have to think about getting those done.. Looks nice..

Yup... gotta mod to at least personalize our vehicles a little not to be the same with all the other vehicles on the road.
