What did you do to your Mach 1 today

[Hakon]

How did you remove and reinstall the passenger side air inlet cover?

Easy, with a screwdriver press the lower tabs... when it is loose, grab it with your fingers to prevent it from falling inwards and release the upper tab and while the other hand is prepared from above in the gap between the radiator and the bumper... The hole is a little narrow but it comes out.
And to install since the pieces have a hole, it is easier the other way around.

Too bad there is not some kind of lattice or screen and or angled plumbing that could be add to keep rocks from smashing into stuff.

Like @Hakon I couldn’t stare at those covers, knowing that they could serve a better function! So I removed the lid completely and using metal tape, connected it to the intake directly, making a ram intake function. Then used a strip of electrical tape to make a nice smooth circular ring over the metal tape so it looks clean in the front.

It looks very interesting! and very pretty.
Ford should have the option for the customer to have functional caps or tubes

What tape did you use exactly?

What tape did you use exactly?

I used a metal tape from Home Depot than ordered this black metal tape. Both same quality. You can use this one that I shared link to.
Made up of a few layers. I installed a horizontal layer first. Then another layer perpendicular. Than another layer. So I can firmly press down on it and doesn’t move as if it were a hard piece.

Trying some seat belt covers since I couldn’t adjust them to stop cutting the side of my neck. It helps that they match my seat stripe!

Where’d you find those? They look great! Any particular size?

I assume they wrap around the belt and are held with Velcro?

One size but a few color options. Yes, Velcro on the back side and fit perfectly.

That’s a brilliant design…thanks for sharing!

There’s these for seatbelt covers too. The guy has a bunch of different designs and colors. I think a few others here have these as well. Thinking of ordering a set for mine too.
