Dashboard for GT Performance Package + 50th year appearance package???

[HalfMoon]

Has anyone found out if the harness behind the dash already has the connections for the two gauges in the PP dash?

I know that dash costs $1500.00, but I'd still be interested in ordering it and having the dealer install it in a non-PP Mustang. I really do love the look of having those gauges, but I also don't want the PP.

My money is on the connectors not being there.

Ford could save $3-$5 per car by not putting that harness in place. I work with the manufacturers on electronics my company supplies and they literally tighten the belt on $0.10 per unit and will bicker on the price to that level on a $80-100 kit. When you run the numbers with the volume, it adds up to a lot of money.

However, when they replaced mine the dealer did it in a matter of a couple minutes and it looked to mostly be fastened by the standard interior pop-locks, so you could pull yours and look.

Thanks for the quick reply! I'll have the service department investigate this for me as well.

I ordered mustang gt premium with pp plus redline interior and premium trium accent. for the longest time in my mind I will be getting brushed aluminum dash with two gauges in the middle. I didn't like the turned aluminum as it look like faux carbon fiber. Reading the thread regarding dash it seem like I'll be getting the turned aluminum. So which one is it really I'm gonna get? I just want to condition myself so I don't pick up the car and raise hell for not getting the brushed aluminum dash.

The turned aluminum is sort of growing on me though. The benefit of it is it'll be less reflective thus I don't have to deal with the sun's reflection when driving. Thanks in advance for answering.

For the millionth time, you get the performance package dash.

I have the PP and 50 year appearance package on my EB premium and it is definitely the 50 year dash that beats the PP dash. In my opinion it also looks a lot better. But I like shiny things

You get the shiny 50 year dash plus the PP guages no matter what if u get both.
