What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[lacanteen]

Wow. 3,000 pages here.
I guess I tried searching, but not much luck.

Has anyone put in better DRLs? The tri-bars are so dim even when everything is off (which should be their brightest setting)...

The tribar lights are always on. Go into settings and turn on DRL. This will turn on the headlights in "DRL" mode, which is not as bright as normal low beam. The lights are only on when the car is in gear (10R80). Not sure about manuals.

Try selling it to a dealership.

Right, I don't want lights on. I guess DRLs technically would be the headlights. I should say the "signature" lighting or whatever manufacturers call them these days, the little front tri-bars within the headlight assembly.
I am aware of "headlights on" mode within settings. It turns on only front lights + dims tri-bars (the front ones) + doesn't turn on the amber fronts + doesn't turn on the taillights.

I'm looking for a way to make my DRL tri-bars brighter. They are either:

• on fully with lights off (or in auto mode in bright daylight with headlights off), but this is already not very bright
• parking lights mode (i.e. dimmer tri-bars + amber front on + taillights on, sidemarkers on, etc) and then full headlights and everything on

I know there's kits to make these brighter, it's just when my wife drove this vehicle behind me, I could barely see them on in bright daylight, but then other Fords such as Fusions have these WAAAY brighter (so does Camaro, Challnger, etc).
I'm just not sure if I want to be unsealing my headlights as that sounds like trouble later on.

She sat in the rain for 2 days so I had to wash it and the SN95 Vert. Damn, both of them are so damn sexy clean and shiny. S550 back in the garage since I had the garage full of furniture for the new carpet install lol.

Some will offer because a small percent of people do take those offers.

25k sounds like an easy sale to me

Washed it and covered it. Several motorcycle trips over the next few weeks.

 

[SINBUSTER007]

so this is a bit "old" news and not pertaining to the 15, but a mustang none the less...,
i recently put the 66 in the shop for a complete overhaul on the engine....
60 years of nothing done and it showed.....
my pocket is quite empty now paying for the parts, and work.....

I’m with you. Weather is crap here. Been cold and rainy for days.

Received my brackets to relocate the Ford Performance oil separator today. Since installing the FP tune with the bigger throttle body, the FP oil separator can not occupy that space and either has to be removed or relocated. I chose relocated.
I designed them in CAD and had them laser cut. If they fit good, I will powder coat them and put a few up for sale.

The oil separator will go here and use the one existing bolt and the spare hole with one additional bolt.

I think I need to detail my engine bay. Far too dusty.
