Hardest part of the whole install is getting that goddamn airbag to release.
I modified a straight pick on the end in the shape of an “L” worked like a champ. My eye opener was the steering wheel has never been off-I’m original owner 17 GT, the steering wheel bolt came off with my hand……

Dropped it off at the dealer yesterday to fix paint chip caused by misaligned trunk lid.

Visited with her via Ford Pass app because the detailer is having a difficult time getting the water spots to come off and had to keep it overnight. Should finish up today and will get pics.

Just the gurney. There's no need to remove the bumper.
Good to know. Hopefully, I can get mine on this weekend. Any special trick or tips or issue to be aware of before the adventure begins (I'm trying to think of one mod I've done that went easy and as planned)?

I want to do a wheel swap but I don't want to loose my heated steering wheel. I'm thinking about just getting all new controls and airbag so I can just swap the steering wheels out without moving over the parts.

A small Allan key works well too as long as it's not a ball end key.

That's really odd a lot of people reported their steering wheel retaining nut was loose, I used an impact on mine it was on there good. Then used a torque wrench to torque it to spec + one small brrrap from the impact to make sure it's staying put lol. Havent had an issue with it in 3 years.

I blame the Charger Scat Pack that pulled up beside me for these events.......

I get it that you had to use harsh braking during the drag race to avoid demoralizing the Charger driver but its a lost cause.

But to be honest, hearing that engine rev up compared to my Inline 4 Camaro, it was well worth it. Now if I can only find that Blue S550 that would always rev up his engine when I was beside him or behind him. I love that car, just loud for no reason at all :)
