Login into your account and cancel order, place new order with correct bulbs and pay the difference, or just cancel order and send email to sales@ and they will get back to you with correct order and you can pay the difference.
I got it through Hypermotive and it's been shipped already. I asked them about that bulb before I bought it so I'm sure they'll be good about it. I've sent them a PM already.

Just changed the internal and external lights - everything that could go wrong, did! Didn't break anything though. Used a combination of lights from Diode Dynamics and Blingworks.

Broke it down over 2 days - first day were the internal lights (map, vanity, glovebox and boot) and rear lights (reversing and fog). Today, the DRLs, parkers and fog lights.

Dropped the first two vanity lights behind the vanity shell, so I had to take that off. Flipped a vanity cover out and managed to find it hiding behind the seat on the other side of the car. Every light that had polarity went in the wrong way first, including that little bugger of the last parker.

Passenger side of the front lights took about 2 hours, driver's side was half the time - including taking the bloody parker out twice (should have tested it before putting it back!).

Everything works, just gotta take your time. And it looks so MUCH better!

I have to thank yellowpony for his suggestion to unscrew the fog light mount and remove it before changing the bulbs. There was ABSOLUTELY no way that I could remove the drl, and if I had got it out, I don't think that I could have got the new bulb in. Also made finding the parker easier. Don't forget, all bulbs need to be turned anti-clockwise before removal. For the front lights, thanks to [MENTION=21232]Kaps[/MENTION] for his great pictures (post #82) and [MENTION=20820]yellowpony[/MENTION] for his pictures and suggestion to remove the housing (post #50) - lifesavers, both of you!

How do we access the reverse lights is it from underneath the car or from inside the boot?
Also what tool did you use to get the vanity lights out (there isn't much room)?

The reverse lights are under the back bumper, from underneath the car.

For the vanity lights, a small flat blade screwdriver, always from the inside edge of the light - see this video: [ame]
Another little trick, as you are prying the globe out, have the sun visor tilted so that it faces down so the globe falls out into your lap. I did the first side with the visor vertical, so the globes fell down into the housing between the vanity mirror and the visor. Now I know how the housing comes comes off!

Finally fitted the full Bling Works pack to my Mustang GT convertible. Put the car up on a hoist and removed the front wheels which made the job a whole lot easier. Only stuff up was not checking the parking lights before putting it all back together, make sure you have them in the right way and working before you put the car back together. Believe it or not I had both sides in the wrong way and needed to turn the globes 180 degrees lol! The Bling Works gear all fitted perfectly and the car now looks like it always should have, big thanks to all the guys on here for the great advice!

Hi guys, just hoping to get a little information as I'm a little confused with the talk of the fog light, DRL and park light.

Is our DRL inside the fog light? The parker is the light next to the indicator yeah?

I've just purchased a fog light from Diode Dynamics, it is the EU/AU spec one but I'm worried it might not be the right one now if it doesn't incorporate the DRL.

Any help would be much appreciated to clear this up for me, thanks.

Steve.

Our fog light housing has 2 light globes in it. Have a close look and you will see it. One is the DRL and the other is Fog Light.
They are not too difficult to remove and change.

Parker light is a prick to remove, its hard to get a good grip to twist it a 1/4 of a turn.

Have a read though posts in this thread for different hints and tips, you will find them useful.

Hi Steve,

1. The parker is the light next to the indicator but towards the engine - correct. Use a nose plier (the longer the better with masking tape on it) to rotate it Anticlockwise. Leave the connector on to get a better grip.

2. fog light from Diode Dynamics, if it is the EU/AU spec, it should be ok. you might need to take off the casing I guess. DRL should not interfere because it is at the bottom part in the fog lamp housing. I bought from Blingworx, its cheaper than Diode Dynamics and smaller too, easiest to replace.

3. Diode Dynamics do not make DRLs for AU/EU specs, again Blingworx, but an absolute pain to replace unless, you can take the wheel off and remove the wheel well cover. It is in the same housing as Fog light and can be reached from bottom of the casing. If you look at the DRL/Fog light, you can see it point upwards, while fog lamp bulb is at the top.

I posted some Pics in this thread earlier I guess, you can look at that and it might give a good idea.

Ah hah! Thank you very much mate, that clears that up for me. So I would assume that the Diode Dynamics fog light that I've just bought has the DRL incorporated in with it?

I'll get onto Blingworks and grab a pair of parkers then and that will tidy up the front end.

Yeah I had a good read through this thread and there's some awesome right ups and directions on how to get everything out.

Amazing the difference the LED upgrade makes. I bought the Diode Dynamic internal kit (map lights, vanity lights, glove compartment, boot) - installed them myself but blew a fuse doing the boot light. Had to order in a new fuse from the Dealer but gt it in one day.

I also went to Blingwork here in Melbourne and did the other LED upgrades

http://www.blingworkauto.com.au/pro...icator-t10-interior-for-my15-ford-mustang-gt/

1. Daytime Running Light (P13W) : KONIK Mulit-Directional CREE LED x 1 pair (Custom made for the DRL of FORD Mustang)
2. Fog Light (H8): LG LED Chipped Fog Light x 1 pair
(The length is just good to fit behind the reflector inside the fog light housing of the MY15 MY16 FORD Mustang)
3. Indicators (T20): KONIK MULTI directional Super Bright Amber FRONT LED Indicator light x 1 pair
(Custom made for FORD Mustang which can avoid the Hyperflash issues without putting on resistors)
4. Parkers (T10): PHILIPS 6000k Ultinon white LED Front Parker x 1 pair
5. Reverse Light (T15): KONIK 6000k Premium white LED light for reverse x 1 pair

A very worthwhile upgrade in my opinion. Huge improvement in the look, far better lighting in the interior and the reverse light replacement makes a big difference with visibility at night through the reversing camera.

The guys at Blingwork installed them for me. I decided easier for them to for them all as they know how to easily get to them and some are very fiddly

Took them about an hour, God knows how long it would have taken me.

One thing to keep in mind too is that if the globes don't light you will likely need to rotate half a turn

That's right, pliers with masking tape on them was the only way I could rotate the Parker lights to remove them.
Masking tape required to give them extra grip, otherwise you will need to squeeze the pliers too much and risk cracking the plastic connector.

Another tip, to peel back the wheel well cover you need to remove another plastic clip at the bottom below the bumper/splitter. I missed it the first time around.

Test that Parker lights work before putting them back in (may need to be rotated 180).

Oh ok, a little more information, thanks again for this. So I still need to purchase some DRL's, the fog lights I've bought will be just that, fog lights?

Sorry for all the questions.
