Hi all, looking for opinions or experience on what other owners have done with interior colours and floor matts or coverings? My car is a 2017 Lincoln MKZ 2.0L AWD. Exterior colour: White Platinum Metallic-Tri-coat Interior: Terracotta coloured perforated seats. Accent Trim: Brown Swirl Walnut along with oem black carpet. I live in South Western Ontario, Canada, 2 hours east of Detroit, Michigan, so 4 season weather is what I drive in. For Fall/Winter I have the Weather Tech form fitted black plastic matts for the front and stock oem carpeted matts for the rear. I am more interested in keeping the carpets clean and dry during the inclement months so colour is not a factor. I am going to order the oem Lincoln MKZ logo floor liner tray style (Part # HP5Z-5413300-DA) for the back, even though I have never had anyone in the back (yet). ? Now to the question! ? I am going to purchase a new set of 4 oem Lincoln MKZ matts to use other than in the Winter time and I can either purchase a set of Black oem matts or Espresso colour (Same Part # HP5Z-5413300-CB need to choose colour). I am finding it hard to actually see the espresso colour even though I have searched on google. I think it is a dark brown and not a reddish brown colour like the terracotta. Not sure they would go well with the Terracotta seats and walnut trim with black carpet and trim. My other thought is to leave it like I got it as the floor carpeting is black and the factory did a nice job of contrasting the black and the terracotta colour. Anyone else do some colour changes inside or have the Espresso colour matts or any other style that you like in your car? Any thoughts? Included pics of driver side/passenger side and open doors view to show the mixture of Black and Terracotta colour my car has. Of course it the matts were Terracotta I would get them without a 200 word essay! ? This is not a do or die situation for me and I am more making conversation on here as I am new and just looking to participate and of course looking forward to reading your opinions. Thanks for reading, Greg

All, I am looking for 12v battery suggestions here. If I were to modify the tray to fit bigger battery. Please provide some good make/models and local places and online such as eBay/Amazon to purchase the battery. Hopefully it's a direct fit. Looks like Diehard 96R has following specs: Specifications Dimensions: Item Weight (lbs.) 33 Length (in.) 10 Group Size 96R Height (in.) 7.5

Hey everyone! So I recently purchased my MKZ a few days ago and I was wanting to get rid of the OEM halogen lights and replace them with some HID's. With my previous vehicle (2000 Chevy Malibu), I had HID's on the lows and fogs and they were great! I angled them lower and I did not have any problems with glare but going to the MKZ is a huge jump and I know that warning lights are likely to appear with the use of them. I have been purchasing my HID's through DDM Tuning and I haven't had any problems with the wires or bulbs so I gave them a call and they told me to purchase a relay harness along with the BOW3 Eliminators. I'm going to put HID's on the fogs since I figured they aren't as picky as the low-beams. I was wondering if anyone has tried putting on aftermarket HID's and if they have had any problems with them. I know that the projectors are also meant for halogens so is glare an issue? Thanks in advance! Rudy
