how come the Mustangs heading to europe don't have those repeater blinkers on the fenders where the 5.0 badge would go?

They are in the mirrors instead? Besides, the front blinkers are placed on the outside of the euro spec car, so they run around the corner and can be seen from the side as well.

Who knows but it's BS.
The one unknown I'm still worried about is whether Ford will produce a separate centre column for RHD. If not, moving the cup holders to the right for LHD will become a serious pain in the ass for those of us in RHD.. It sounds like an obvious one but I really wouldn't be surprised if this is a standardised part. Waiting to see final pics of a RHD and hoping ford make the right decision. :paddle:
Was speaking to a neighbour yesterday and found out he works for Ford at the test centre where they had a couple of mustangs in. I think it was the yellow one he was talking about (didn't know a yellow one was in the country and he showed me the pics) and he said how the centre console was wrong for the LHD and was actually a RHD centre console as the guy that got in knocked a bottle of water going for the handbrake. No pics of said console so I am taking it as a pinch of salt it's true but of it is then I will be very happy :)

At 0:55 you.can see that the lower lights in the bumper are the DRLs. The Tribars turn on with the normal light (so I will always drive with normal lights on)


In the very last shot from the side you can see that the normal light is on with the tribars.

How could we solve the Tri-bar issue ?
- Swap cables ?
- Reprogram electronics ?

We could all tell Ford Europe we're not happy with what they're proposing to give us and instead want a US Mustang with US options with the smallest of changes to make it legal in the EU?

How on Earth could they not use the Tribar as DRL, considering almost all(if not all) of the new cars manufactured in Europe come with separate DRL and are freaking huge compared to the Tribars.
I really do hope this is a mistake or smth, because saying the Tribars DRL are against EU regulations is BS, considering the new cars that come with them already!

The white tail lights work with some colors, white and even this red, but my car will be black with black rims and WHITE tail lights! I'll prolly buy red ones or tint the white ones a lot.

Tbh, sometimes these EU regulations are so subjective, if a car is manufactured in the EU, they can get away with a lot of stuff, if it comes from abroad, they strip down all of the good stuff because *insert sh** reason here*.

I have to wait until July-August for delivery and the wait is killing me, but I pray to God they don't strip the American influence from the Mustang....

For sure this will be one of the most popular aftermarket mod (with the tail lights mod). Someone will create something to solve this.

Even with race red the clear tail lights are horrible.

However this is my same thought: removing all american stuff from the Mustang, Ford will transform it in a Fiesta for the european market...
