Alright so i know this blinking little light thing has some sort of relation to the factory lame security system in the mustangs but for some reason its blinking while i drive.... and i've never noticed that before.

that doesn't look factory. did you buy your car used? looks aftermarket.

yeah but it had like 900 miles on it, apparently it was used in a commercial or something. i thought i remember seeing someone else a while back having the same question.

It usually blinks if i hit the panic button lol.

GPS installed by the loan company. If you are late on your payments, that's how they locate the car and repo it. If you go to one of those high-interest rate places to get your loan, they install one of those because they don't trust you.

i've had this car for almost 3 years, first time i've seen it blink for no reason, plus i've never missed a payment lol. Also the loan company has never had the car in their possession not too sure how they would install it since i bought it through a dealer and didn't get the loan through them.

Lol I bought my car used and it had a tracker device installed in it as well. I didn't notice it blinking until a few days after ownership while I was driving at night. I had a stereo shop take it out while I was having my system installed.

Loan company doesn't do the install themselves. A shop or the dealer does it. It's not factory. Factory security system shows up in the dash, it's not screwed into the bottom of the dash like that. I suppose it could be an aftermarket alarm, if so, that's a pretty odd place to put the light.

Its just wierd i only noticed it blinking while driving since i had my rims swapped out.

The only time i've ever noticed it blink is when I had accidently hit the panic button.

Big Brother is watching. They use stealth Ninjas who install those things in the middle of the night and you'd never know it. They're also the reason for missing socks.

It's true. Look it up.

You know how sometimes you see things out of the corner of your eye? Well, that's them.

This helps somewhat in keeping them away. It's what I wear.

SONICBOOST

Now this is the most logical explanation. I need to stop getting on my dogs for this missing socks.
