So damn...the base stereo comes with Sirius in 2016?2016 Mustang photos at Astorg Ford in Parkersburg WV
Hope you guys and gals enjoy them.... John

As long as Ford didn't decide to change the hood/hood vent design on the 2016 model. :ford::headbonk:If 2016 owners don't like tHe turn signals in the hood vents you can always pick up a 15 hood vent on eBay for a hundred bucks a pair
They are so important that none of the export models have them. :doh:Not necessarily! There is much more to the hood vents than looking cool. They are duel function. One is heat extraction the other release of pressure that builds up under the hood and causes lift.
so there still is no xm on the base :-(So damn...the base stereo comes with Sirius in 2016?
...what a bitch they are for not doing that in 2015 models....
EDIT: Didn't see the post earlier about Ford site says Sirius XM not available with base unit (even though the OP's pictures show it on the sticker).
What the hell!
I don't know, it's hard to tell without seeing daylight out the other side like the one on the left. Good post though...where did you get that photo? Are those your 2015 vents? Thats the Ingot Silver color I'll be needing soon.Thank you for the video.
I'm pretty confident that this was thought over by the Ford engineers.
Perhaps the underside of the hood is redesigned to channel air more efficiently through the vent.
Or, alternatively, perhaps Ford engineers concluded that the '15 hood vent is larger than it needs to be.
Either way, I don't think making it smaller is something that they just did without thought. Especially when they're putting electric components so close to the vent there.
Here's something interesting...here's an OEM takeoff from the underside of the hood vent. Is that the vent opening at the bottom? If so, it looks a lot smaller from the bottom than the opening on the top. The bottom of it looks about the same opening as the '16 top opening.
But I could be wrong and it could be something else entirely.
^^2016 !!! Sync 3 !!!
The situation is really pretty simple.I'd like to see an actual test done to see just how effective the 2015 heat extractors are at flowing air. It just looks like they are too small to make an appreciable difference in under hood temps or aerodynamic efficiency. In all honesty even though the 2016 has blocked off some of that aria for the turn signal I doubt that it will have a significant effect on flow based off the already limited flow of the 2015 vents. I know the gt350 is a different animal all together but look at its hood, if ford was confident in the 2015 vents ability to move air why would they change it to a much larger sunken heat extractor style hood?
HelloI don't know, it's hard to tell without seeing daylight out the other side like the one on the left. Good post though...where did you get that photo? Are those your 2015 vents? Thats the Ingot Silver color I'll be needing soon.
More importantly...do you know how I buy these? Oem part number etc.?
