Is it possible to add Color Changing Ambient "package" to the 350?

2000FormulaMan · Mar 18, 2018

Hey guys,

I love my 350, but am really bummed ford didn't put in the option for us to be able to change our gauges colors; like the "premium" mustangs have.

I mean, I know its a track car, but for the price of the car... cmon.
So,... does anyone know if its possible to add it afterwards?

Thanks for the help!

I looked into the parts manual and saw an "ambient light kit" (CL8Z13E700AA)

However, I know for sure you have to change the cup holders to the led ones (GR3Z-6313562-BB) and I dunno what else. It seems implausible to do it cleanly.

It would probably be easier to add it aftermarket. Several kits exist.

FYI: The center oil gauges only have white LEDs. I could never find a part that could display colors which makes sense if the part is GT350 specific and the factory never offered MyColor.

Just mentioning since the OP wanted to change gauge colors.

Will changing out the led's behind the center gauges and cluster work? If i wanted them to be red for example?

I just traded in my '15 GT Premium yesterday for an '18 GT350. First thing I tried to do was to change the gauge color, and to my horror I discovered that not only was this feature absent, but the interior lighting was also missing. Disappointed that MSRP was $18K more than my GT Premium, but I lost some cool features.

And don't get me started on the missing horse that projects onto the ground when the doors open.

I expected the bling to be present...maybe even enhanced.

Once you break it in...But it in sport mode, Wrap it out to 8500 or so, take a few hard corners. Feel the brakes.

There's your bling...Believe me you'll be too busy enjoying other things to notice any ambient lighting anyway.

MyColor would have been nice, but the running horse puddle light are what I would have liked to have. The whole 60k for a car that doesn’t have something the lowest entry level Stang had is really annoying.

On a side note, @Demonic , how could you post something like that without a link. Definitely want one for the entertainment value alone.

Pretty sure the 2019 gt350 will have puddle lights. I’m sure it will be an easy swap if that’s what you are into.

I doubt the puddle lights. This car is geared more toward the performance angle than cosmetics. Theres no pony any where and the only place it says Ford is the middle of windshield banner and center caps on wheels, I like it!!

I know I have 1, read the article. They specifically said the 2019 will have “ cobra mirror lights”
http://performance.ford.com/enthusiasts/media-room/20180/06/2019-shelby-gt350-new-tech.html

Second to last paragraph...

“New colors for the 2019 Mustang Shelby GT350 include Velocity Blue and for the first time, Ford Performance Blue. Optional factory-painted over-the-top racing stripes are available in high-gloss Shadow Black, Oxford White or Kona Blue. Mirror-mounted Shelby Cobra Projection Lamps come standard in the available Technology Package”

Hopefully the cobra puddle lights will be available for diy installers.

Going from a 16 GT to a 17 GT350, the lights were the first thing I noticed - in addition to the lack of backup sensors. Then I started the engine and... what was I talking about again?

Is it possible to add Color Changing Ambient "package" to the 350?
