First mods to your Mach 1

[ChitownStang]

I like those wheels. Have you used those tires in the winter before? I would be curious to know how they do.

Thanks! I haven’t but I read lots of good reviews from people that do. On my 15 I did full winter tires and they were just to squishy, made it no fun to drive.

It's pretty straightforward for US cars, here's a nice video:

I’m very curious about this too. I’d like to do this but seems you lose the my color capability ? Although I don’t think he ever tried it with headlights on since that’s when the my color kicks in. Does anyone know ?

I think his lights were on at one point but I’m not sure.
Another thought I had, since the gauge bezel color doesn’t match, couldn’t you swap the two a/c vents also? I would assume they don’t have the problem of bezels not being the same color

Chitown is much tougher than me. Black DD in Chicago?! I drive a light gray, almost silver DD in Seattle weather which is extremely mild compared to Chicago. And I still cry when going out in the driveway to wash it in 40 degree weather. Couldn’t imagine maintaining a black Mach through those winters!!

Haha, thanks Atlas
I’m lucky to have a nice big indoor garage to give regular baths in the winter.
I couldn’t imagine not being able to drive this thing for 6 months.
It would kill me!

Feeling pretty optimistic about replacing the handling package wheels with black Ford Performance PP2’s. 305/30 PS4S mounted on the fronts but the dealer put gouges around the rim in the rears trying to mount the 315’s replacements won’t be here for 2-3 weeks.

Don't trust the dealer for the next attempt.

Only use West Point Auto Works in Monroeville. Ask for Tom, guaranteed no issues. Perfect mount and balance. Roadforce balance too. Tremendous value.

I have only been able to display oil pressure in Bars... The manual says that oil temp is available but I can seem to find it in the digital options... It's like the transmission temperature as well... Manual says it's available for the digital cluster but it doesn't present as an option to choose...

I have transmission oil temperature in the digital gauges. Also differential temperature. Only engine oil temperature is missing out of the 8 gauges listed in the manual. But there's cylinder head temperature at least.

Hey Nick,

Do have the A10 or the Tremec? I don't see the tran temp gauge as an option... I see the diff temp... I have the Tremec... It seems dumb to have 2 options for Vacuum (gauge and digital gauge) yet no Oil Temp????? I know some have purchased the GT350 gauge set and installed it but I kinda like the MYCOLOR thing... I know... 1st World problems...

I have A10. Maybe it's missing only for Tremec?

I am thinking so... I wonder if the Tremec doesn't have a temperature sensor to send the data? I don't know anyone who has owned a 350 so perhaps a forum member can chime in and let us know?
