Yes, I did it myself and this video link from Drewbo explains it perfectly. However, the video is based on a Manual trans car and I have an Auto.
In the video, the swap is done in stages... bottom section swapped over and completed, followed by each side separately completed. You use the...
Got an opportunity to fit the GT350 steering wheel and Paddle Shift Extenders today. Very happy with the alcantara feel and look.
Impressed by CJ Pony Parts shipping times... the steering wheel got here within 7 days.
This is the list of my DIY mods so far;
Vinyl lights tint kit (Anchor...
Is that installed on the driver's side of our RHD cars?
In other words, is this the "(M-6766-A50) Ford Racing Passenger Side Oil-Air Separator Kit"?
EDIT: I've now read the whole thread, learnt Port vs. Starboard, etc, etc, and concluded that this is the part I need...
I have multiple shipping options from CJ Pony Parts. International Mail, International Economy and International Standard Parcel. On each option, the price increases about 10%. Did everyone select "International Standard Parcel"? This option states that there will be no more custom charges...
For future reference... I found a firm press with a flat screw driver in the middle of the right vertical side of the connector (as seen highlighted in red in the OP picture) popped it off quickly.
I had no luck fiddling around with my fingers.
Hopefully the shipping and logistics will also be ramped up to cope with the additional production.
With some ships only having a handful of cars, it seems it is shipping, not production, which is the current bottleneck.
I'm the poor sod with the rejected ShopMate delivery (and yes, I still haven't received delivery after purchasing these parts in January).
However, this is all because I bought and shipped two decklids together and these were packed into a box greater then 105cm in length.
It seems that...
My mates car is finally on this ship. Build date 4th December. That is 100 days from build to shipping! What do they do with the cars for over 3 months???? :rant:
My car is the same specification, ordered on the same day at the same dealer and had the same build date... My car was shipped 32...
Had my GT done at Tint Professor in Nunawading in eastern Melbourne.
$330 for their 60% Premium Elite tint (which included a loan car).
Good job all round. They looked after the car well.
I removed the rear parcel shelf to make things easier for them. That was a easy job.
We were lucky enough for the local government to introduce a custom plate to coinside with the release of the 2016 Mustang in Australia.
Here is mine shortly after taking delivery.
Cheers,
Matthew.
Melbourne, Victoria.
I word of caution on using ShopMate.
ShopMate have very specific size and total volume limits of packages. For example, make sure that anything you group together does not exceed 105cm in length.
I ordered 2 decklids for myself and a mate. NewTakeOff said they simply taped 2 of the...
Do you have an Anchor Room kit, or something else?
I've got the same colour/wheel spec as you, and have an Anchor Room kit waiting to go.
Interested to hear your opinion on the results.
Well, this thread has been a bit quiet based on the small number of cars on the boat (27 for Australia), so here is an update...
The SALOME arrived as expected into Melbourne on Feb 7th. The cars were moved by Prixcar from Appleton Dock to either Webb dock or Prixcar Altona the following day...
My mate and I ordered the same spec cars (just different colour) on the same day with the same salesman at the same dealer. According to the window stickers, both cars were built on the same day... but I'm on track to get my car 2 months before my mate. WTF! Yep.... :shrug:
Just wondering from those lucky enough to have taken delivery... what was the odometer reading (total Kilometres) at delivery time?
I read 2 examples somewhere... one was 10 and the other 25! That's a big difference and I was surprised that a new car had more then 10 Klm on the clock at...
Mine is on the next ship (SALOME)... but I've been told it's 3 weeks from docking in Melbourne to arrival at a Victorian dealer, and then they have to do their delivery tasks. So almost 4 weeks all up seems about correct.
