Original redline hood struts looking all manky and corroded. I might tidy up the brackets and replace the struts just in case the corrosion is a sign of future failure (also, the the rust looks awful).
There are several 'mustang strut kit' supliers, but does anyone know if these struts are...
After the heart sinking moment of the sound of a concrete bollard tearing into my sideskirt (side splitter/side trim/running board whatever they're called), I'm going to replace it. The stock part comes with the pastic painted side panel (behind the door), but these are obviously separate...
I find the seatbelt position isn't ideal as it rubs on my neck. Not a problem if wearing a collar as I can just put my collar up like Elvis, but a pain with t-shirts. In the US, they can get FREE 'seat-belt extenders' from the dealer, which people say do the trick. Can't seem to get these (from...
Just recieved my armrest today. Looks pretty good - if you didn't know better, you wouldn't know it was after-market. Fit isn't exact (it moves around a little bit), but am going to stick a few bits of felt to the curved holder things (see pic) to see if that helps and to also make sure there...
Whilst doing my usual clothes shopping in Aldi, I noticed there were some 'officially licenced' Ford t shirts. Bought a Mustang and a Gran Torino.

Tyre pressure sensors all over the shop since the cold weather. They've been fine the last two winters, but having issues this year. Anyone else have these issues?
Going to have calipers painted. Not sure whether to go for black or dark grey (or some other color!), any pictures or opinions? It's a black car with black wheels.
Anyone replaced their indicator bulbs with amber LEDs? Just the bulb rather than one of those fancy all-in-one units. Not overly keen on ebay gamble. There are a few options online, but it's never guaranteed that they'll be error free or physically fit in the housing.
Can't find the info anywhere, but can someone please check my list of ambient lights below please? My cupholder lights havn't been working for a while and just want to check I'm not missing any others.
As far as I know, we have,
lights in footwell
lights in interior door handles

Noticed that the dealer stock (unregistered MY17) cars are now being offered at discounted rates.
Sandicliffe (East Midlands dealer) are advertising Mustangs with "Huge customer savings on list price" and cars from other dealers are openly being advertised on ebay with ÂŁ2500 off...
In the new Punisher series on Netflix, Episode 4, there's a fairly long car chase scene between a Mk1 stang and the Punisher in his S550 red FB PP (think it's an EB with dubbed 'car chase' engine noises). There's even a "Steve McQueen" mention afterwards.
Hope they keep the red S550 as the...
I don't have a problem with the hard centre console (left leg), but find the interior door grab really uncomfortable on long journeys as the sharp angle jabs into the side of my kneecap. There's nothing on the forums (I can find) about this so I might be the only one, but in case anyone else...
Punched straight through a wall and driver got out and brushed the brick dust off his lapels like a baddie off the a-team.

Just noticed this....
It's fairly thick plastic (more than the bumper itself) so must have been a heavy stone if a stone chip.
In any case, it'll need a repair job. Might as well take the opportunity to fit the standard US lower grille. Also, toying with the idea of glossing the grilles...
Checked mine after 6000 miles - only a very small amount in there. Could see oil in the can but wasn't enough to even dribble out.
Anyone else have this fitted and checked their's?
Also couldn't unscrew the f***ing thing. There's a nut at the bottom you can undo, but the whole thing seems to...
Getting my rear bumper re-painted shortly and want to ceramic coat as well.
Can't be bothered to go back to professional just for that (they put the top-notch (24 hours to 'cure') thing on last time so two journey job).
Just looking for a DIY ceramic coating, easy to do job. Any product...
Couldn't get into the car today with either key fob. Managed to get in using the manual key, even then the car wouldn't recognise either fob. Put one in the cup holder compartment and managed to start the car and it's currently with the Ford dealer.
Anyone else? Any advice?
