Outstanding post, I appreciate it. I'm going to tackle that job in the near future. I like how you edited for time, made it painless to watch. Nice lift too! What brand and how much?

In the process of installing LED Headlights and fog lights. The video made it a simple task, but 2 items I got hung up on I thought I'd bring up. On my 2018 RTL I have the USB and 3.5mm audio jack in the frunk, and the grommet needs to be poked out with a screwdriver before lifting the frunk off. Similarly, if you have installed a battery tender harness into the frunk by going through the rubber plug, it will also have to be disconnected before lifting the funk off. I lifted mine with the wires still attached, and being as it was the first time lift of course I couldn't simply re-hang it. Had to holler for help.

As an aside to all the folks who have replaced the left side driving light cover with the frunk still mounted, I say congratulations! After trying to get the left side cover off and back on with the frunk on the ground I would suggest this; Remove the frunk, it's easier. Follow the video step by step, get a helper, and lift it onto a creeper or roll around mechanic seat. Easier to access, easier to see the yellow positive wire.
