Sunvisor Homelink Swap - part # number and DIY

[flixden]

Hmm. I thought all Lariats prior to 2024 already had the garage door opener control?

Yeah, I think that's correct. Up to 2024, all Lariats had the opener.
But I am waiting for my ordered truck currently, which is a 2025 Lariat 501(A), no sunroof, and I don't think the garage door opener is included. Not 100% sure though, as Ford's build page and the order guide are confusing on this at best.
It doesn't look like the correct visor is available even?

I didn't realize you could order a 25 Lariat w/o sunroof. Learn something new every day! There is a part number for that somewhere, because you could get a 22-23 Lariat without the sunroof. Might take a little research.

I don't think that even on the '24s, the sunroof is standard for the Lariat, looks like not even all Platinums. Looks like it's a $1,500 add-on. Screenshot below is for the '24.

I know when I was shopping for my 24 last year there wasn't a single Lariat or Platinum anywhere that didn't have a sunroof, so I figured that just the way Ford did it for 24.

Twin panel moonroof was standard on 2024 Lightning Lariats and Platinums.

Here is an excerpt from the 2024 order guide.

It’s the same for a 2025 Lightning Laria and Platinum. Twin panel moon roof is standard.

501A Lightning Lariat? I don’t think a Lightning Lariat EV can be built/ordered as as an equipment group 501A as the gas version possibly can be built. All Lightning Lariats are built as 511A‘s. Gas F-150 Lariats can be built as 500A, 501A and 502A. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I am sure you are correct.
I am looking at the hybrid (powerboost), assuming that the visors are the same.
Thanks for the clarification, it clears up the misunderstanding above. Never thought about the packages being different.
Still looking for a black non sunroof visor with the garage door opener.

Geez...........We weren't even dealing with a Lightning. No wonder nothing was making sense.

Hello,
Am I searching for the correct part? I know this thread is a couple months old but everytime I click on a link in this thread or Google search, they are all well over $500! Wrong part or is inflation a real thing here?

I ordered a JL3Z1504105ZC from fairway Ford Parts. Used my Ford Pass Points to buy it from Fairway. They are one of the few online dealer that will use points to purchase parts. Just send them an email with request to use points and they will send you a quote. Then Rely to the quote email and they will send it to you.

Back then I bought mine for less than $300. Price now is almost 2x.

$250ish is a pricy garage door remote. $500+ is highway robbery!

Are there other year F150 or expedition sun visor that would work in our lightning?

Why even bother doing that when you can have a high end rear view mirror with the garage door opener that offers more features it plug and play and looks oem for less money.

Does changing the mirror mess with the auto high beam headlights that's on the lariat trim? I know the safety sensors and cruise items are above the mirror in a different panel. This mirror would be the easier option to be honest.

Nope, I have it on my truck and zero issues. It’s one of my favorite mods

Not just the Lariat. I have auto high beams on my 25 Flash also.
