I don't understand why Ford didn't put a handle on the internal panel like the majority of other cars :frusty:

Two words. Money pinching! :doh:

I often shocked my friends saying that there was a ROD for keeping the hood open..

Next update is done. Most of the wiring for the tribars is done too, just have to see when my DD Kit v2 arrives and when I can send in my headlights

The plug & play switchbacks from DD won't work on our cars. We need to play with the wires to have them work.
And for that, you need the kit from US (like papinist's car) or the kit from China (like on my car).

Okay thanks, I guess Ill wait some more, maybe DD wil show up with a EU version in the near future...

Don't think so ... To work, a switchback needs a 3 wire socket (one for turn, one for white and one for ground). Our socket on the mustang is a 2 wire socket (one for turn and one for ground) ...

So, nothing can be really plug & play in this case for us ...

Exactly as John said.
But trust me, it's really easy, you have to connect only 1 spare wire to parking light that is next to the turning light

I installed the switchback from US that papinist used in his car too. Worked great, you just have to re-wire one parking light, the rest is plug & play

Sidemarkers are just the glasses, since light them would be completely illegal here in germany. But guess they will look great with the chrome elements and the white stripes of my Stang :cheers:

Ok I will look into it, I do have a tendency to easily screw things up though... even simple things

I still would gamble on those, as the EU regulation say's it's not mandatory to have side-markers on cars less than 6M, but usually if you have them they need to be amber... but I would like to have the smoked's damn rules!

The 2016 Camaro has white sidemarkers in the EU version. So it can't be illegal somehow

Well when I changed my springs and the garage had them controlled by the officials so it is written down in the car papers, they did not say anything about the white sidemarkers (even on).

I read somewhere in our laws (Switzerland) that if your lights in the back are white then white sidemarkers are allowed, the same for red. Who knows, drove near cops + the expertise for the springs and nothing happened so I guess no one will bother making remarks.
