He's talking about back in the day, hence the 8 track comment. He must be older folk, like me. :-) :cheers:

Nice! You got pics of how it mounts? Also wonder how it fits with the CDC Light Bar.

Thanks! But in my humble opinion, the real hat tip goes to other forum members who are brave enough and have the knowledge and skills to really rip into their engines and suspensions. Some insane builds and wicked smart people around this forum....

I feel that way about my wife. :cheers:

Well, everything is 99% held on with clips and just a few 7mm bolts. It's not too bad, but you need to go slow and try not to force anything. Definitely pick up a set of dash trim pullers. Worth every penny: http://www.harborfreight.com/5-piece-auto-trim-and-molding-tool-set-67021.html To get...

Through the ODB port. The default settings in the unit clips and shape the sound, limit volume, etc. All things you don't want when you are adding your own DSP.

I disassembled a good portion of my dash and center console. Ran speaker lines, power, RCA's, data cable for sound processor, power from batt, installed components, new wiring harness to the ACM, reprogrammed ACM. It's 95% back together. Started on the fiberglass sub housings. Next up...

Mine went up about 10% or so, but my S197 was 10 years old at that point and much less valuable. Also had less coverage being that it was 10 years old.

I've had an 87 GT, a 95 GT, a 99 GT Vert, a 2007 GT Vert and now the 2017 GT Vert. I feel like they get better and better each generation, albeit there are always some (usually minor) things I preferred about the previous generation.

I also had a 2007 that only had 45,000 miles, was in mint mint condition. I traded it in. About 2 weeks after that, I got an email from the service department, that the repair time on my vehicle would be about 2 months. I was confused and thought it was in reference to my new Mustang. Turns out...

Yup, been thinking of this approach, just don't want to destroy my existing knob.

:lol::lol::lol:

Yeah, I learned that trick through a bad experience. I had just bought a brand new 1999 GT vert and had to take it in for its first service. This was when it had about 1500 miles on it. I picked the car up and drove it home. When I got out of the car I noticed stab/puncture holes in the...

Everyone seems to say it's super easy, but mine won't budge. Had my neighbor try, wouldn't budge. Brought it up to my friends at the auto body shop; wouldn't budge. Yes, turning counter clockwise. What kind of loctite did Ford use on this thing? Geez....

Do you remember where you got the plastic clips? I can't seem to find them with any certainty. That is, I find sites that say it is that part number, but the pictures look very different.

Unfortunately I didn't check when I opened the box. I left the bar wrapped in the provided foam. Lesson learned. It definitely didn't happen during the install cause I left it wrapped in the foam until it was dropped into the car on the last step. I took the foam off right before tightening the...

I agree. There is no bare metal being exposed and the steeda rails have a durable coating on them. I wouldn't worry. I just installed mine. Just make sure you put rubber on your jack or a wood block; something that won't scrape the coating off the rails when you use them and you should be fine.

I went with the Mashimoto and I regret it. I have to disconnect both hoses and then remove the can from the bracket and empty it on the bench. There is zero room to get in there and unscrew it while it is in the car. And my hands are about the size of a tic tac, so...

Just installed my CDC light bar and on the last step, noticed this damage straight out of the box... sigh. :frusty:
