What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

[W111BOB]

By square you mean doesn't line up straight with the sticker on the door frame ?

- I suppose "flush" is a better word for it

The plastic wont sit on the the metal flush sits at an angle - might need a go with a dremel on the plastic?

they just need a really good push around the edges you'll here quite a loud click/pop once it snaps around the edges of the latch, when i fitted mine a they wouldn't click going outside to inside of frame had to seat the inside edge first then work to outside.

Did the door covers fit easily? the hinge ones are fine - but the "catch" ones dont sit square - did you have to bash em to make em fit? ta Bob

Yeah, one side was perfect and the other was flush-ish... maybe 0.5-1mm off on one side... I didn't think much of it and actually didn't try to force it flush. I just thought "meh, good enough".

Haha, I've added some super thick 3m double sided foam tape on each side, it's wedged in pretty well *fingers crossed*.

I'm more curious about how it holds up in winter when blasted with hot air :-/ Or even air conditioning... won't it get water/condensation ingress?

I was worried too especially with the humid heat we had the last couple of months had aircon blowing on it full whack then turned it off got out of car and ping as soon as the door opened it was instantly covered in water droplets especially around its silver lip but it seems to have not effected it at all. Its got to be low voltage as its powered by odb2 port so it seems fine. Heat shouldn't effect it at all in winter as that'll dry it out if anything.

Bought a £12 number plate bracket off eBay and relocated the front plate. Still not sure but it’s staying there for now. Wasnt paying £100+ for a sto-n-show because I’m tighter than a ducks arse.
