  1. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    It's not a daft question to be fair, they would more than likely work but I can't find a set of them for sale separately. I think because they're inside the headlight casings the only way to get them is out of a crashed one or buy some US spec headlights, which would probably cost a fortune when...
  2. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Update on the 35w headlight swap. I don't think my harnesses are going to be long enough🤦‍♂️ The ballasts I'm fairly confident will work, but I'll have to lengthen the harnesses. There's a distinct lack of ballast to bulb harnesses for sale on the web, I did see some from a company called Xenons...
  3. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Yeah the circuit board is apparently swappable, just undo the 4 torx screws and put the ones from these into the mustang ballast housings. Forgot my sequential indicators for the mirrors are turning up tomorrow as well. Those however can wait until the weather's warmed up a bit as apparently...
  4. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    35W ballasts and what I'm hoping are the correct wiring harnesses have turned up this morning👍 OSRAM nightbreaker bulbs and handbrake cable both due in tomorrow so fingers crossed this weekend will prove fruitful! Took her out for a little rip this morning too :like:
  5. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    No dramas, it does give me much greater peace of mind with the new keys now. With the old ones even with the steering lock I was always worried about the signal being cloned, these ones remove that worry pretty much entirely unless they can copy the signal within the 40 second window, which...
  6. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Here goes: Newer keyfobs - a chap on instagram called mustdan mods down in Kent did them for me, they're literally just a newer design of key that Ford uses now. I'm not sure on the ins and outs of key programming myself but as far as I know he's the only person in the UK currently providing...
  7. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Got her back a few weeks ago (was away with work for 5 months). Taxed, MOT'd and insured over the last week for the year ahead and it's also had 2 of the newer keys that go to sleep after 40 seconds and stop emitting the signals to reduce the risk of relay theft. Before the MOT it had a new NSR...
  8. Ohlins R&T suspension kit install question

    Hi OP, Mine is an August 2017 car (pre-facelift) and required the RLCAs to have a bit of grinding work to get the spring perches to seat correctly. The holes are nowhere near round standard, I believe the only ones which are a direct fit have been 2015 and maybe some 2016 cars. It can be done...
  9. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    So I started the Mustang up this morning on the new driveway. As some may have noticed, the back end is now practically in an echo chamber thanks to the large porches on either side. And because no one was around, I did it with the exhaust valves open. According to my beloved mother, things in...
  10. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    It was a great trip, some lovely roads and views although I can understand why the locals aren't the biggest fans of motorhomes and caravans etc as there were a few bad examples on display. Driveway is brilliant, as the slightly messy garden it was before we didn't think there'd be much room...
  11. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Returned from Scotland yesterday. 1854 miles at 26.6mpg, and boy was the car phenomenal. Did the 300+ mile slog up to Edinburgh and back at the end of it with no fuss, felt fresh at the end of both, and it was an utter weapon on the good bits with all the upgrades. Gorgeous roads, gorgeous...
  12. MAP engine rebuild

    I saw this video, seems a bit odd to remove the oil squirters in my opinion. Surely the extra cooling would offer more protection for the pistons, which in a big power build I would've thought is ideal? He said it was a potential failure point but they're literally little metal tubes, you'd have...
  13. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Noted, I did look at some of the roads in that bit on google maps and thought they looked horrendous, so the plan is to stick to the main road around there👍 With Applecross I'm still a bit undecided, I might just head up to Bealach na Ba and call it there before I get the car into any really...
  14. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    So the plan at the moment is: Edinburgh Inverness Thurso Durness Inverness Fort William (2 nights) I'm thinking get the obligatory photo by the Forth Bridge, Old Military Road through the Cairngorms across the top of Glenshee, Glenmorangie distillery, John O'Groats, Smoo Cave, Kylesku Bridge...
  15. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Got new front tyres fitted today (Michelin PS5s) to replace the P Zeros that were fitted. In honesty the Pirellis had plenty of life left in them and were fine in the dry, but gave me no confidence at all in the wet with the front prone to washing out. I then had to clean the sodding thing...
  16. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Alignment done today after fitting the Öhlins, had to have it redone elsewhere after the first place fucked it up. Went into the first place understandably needing work but the steering wheel was still pointing straight, it came out with the toe correct but the steering wheel on the piss and the...
  17. Help with body repair / general accident repair shop with Mustang specialist?

    Definitely broke the RLCA for sure, that's what's hanging off so in all likelihood most if not all the suspension on that corner will be bent out of shape as well. The leak will either be fuel or possibly diff oil from the half-shaft on the damaged side being smacked about and unseating or...
  18. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Got the coilovers fitted, superb quality bits of kit and the only issue I had was with the lower spring perches just as ***** predicted. Chose to grind the perches down as they're more easily replaceable than the RLCAs, but really impressed with them. Need to get the alignment sorted before...
  19. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Öhlins R&T coilovers have landed! Fitting them tomorrow and then I'll be testing over the next week to find a damper setting I'm happy with, then in a few weeks I'll be heading up to Scotland to do the Cairngorms Old Military Road, NC500 and Glen Coe/Glen Etive so they should get a good workout👍
  20. Intake upgrade benefits on 2015 PP1?

    I've got a 2020 manifold and intake waiting to go onto my 2017 car over here in the UK. The general consensus over here is the intake combined with headers is worth it, but doing the intake just by itself isn't because the exhaust side is too restrictive to take advantage. We get fairly...
