Sorry I can’t answer all your questions but yes failing compressors are common. I run my aircon for at least some of the journey every time I drive it in the hope of keeping things lubricated as I think it’s a seal issue? I even run it in winter on recirc and it keeps the moisture out as a by...
The front Tri’s will be the next mod I do along with a new grill and oil cooler (all bumper off stuff together). I will put up pictures as I go. To be honest having done the rears I really don’t think the fronts will be that hard to do yourself!
Cool 🙂 to be honest I’m surprised more people haven’t done it. This was the first of a few little mods I have planned with the aim of making the car look a little more retro (I know some people won’t get it but I like lots of nods to the classics).
Thank you 🙂.
Yeah I have completed the opposite setup. So I have a set of U.K. clear lights with US internal sand plug/wiring etc which will fit straight on a US car and work like OE us lights but with clear lenses. Hopefully I can recoup what I spent.
The US lights I purchased from Germany...
A few reasons:
The American lights have silver reflectors inside which increases the amount of light passing through the red plastic. By transferring these over with the LED boards I have got factory levels of brightness.
The videos above are taken in direct mid day sun yesterday so as bright...
So i am at the 3 year warranty running out point and it’s time to start some more mods. 2017/18 Mustang GT in Magnetic Grey. Mods so far are:
Rear muffler deletes
side lettering vinyl
rear side reflectors swapped from amber to red
Rear side window louvres
Stainless fuse box cover
Customised...
I was stood on that same corner when it happened. Bit of a change from last year where the Mustang won! Still a great experience listening to all those GT cars. And a nice line up of Mustangs on the way in!
There is an area that you cut away that allows you to slide the boards in without having to separate the light from the lens.
if you do a search there were photos on one of the U.K. threads.
I would use a hot blade rather then a power tool as that way you won’t have to worry about...
Diode dynamics are the ones everyone seems to go for and I’m haven’t heard of many problems with them. I have some but haven’t got around to fitting them yet.
I would be wary of unknown quality LEDs. I have used loads of eBay leds and most non main brand ones have failed over time. With how tricky a job it is to fit these to U.K. cars I wouldn’t risk fitting in LEDs that might fail. It’s not like you can just change them like a conventional bulb. I...
Sounds ideal, I am only asking so many questions as I want to be fully prepared to do mine in one go rather then be surprised by something and have to leave it in pieces while I buy/order things.
I have been a bit delayed by the fact the plates are now out of stock and not expected until mid...
Looking good so far, I am going to be doing this soon. Out of interest could you also just cap off the two nipples here rather then join them with the u bend?
