Smoke/Clear Bumper Side Marker Reflector Lights 2013-14 Mustang

Amazon.com: Smoke Clear Bumper Side Marker Reflector Lights K2+6 Count Led Bulbs Mustang: Automotive Amazon.com: Smoke Clear Bumper Side Marker Reflector Lights K2+6 Count Led Bulbs Mustang: Automotive

These are $36/pair delivered and fit great (nuts included) - about half the price of the Mustang shops.

For just over $75 (about $80), get a copy of Lightroom 5 from eBay - won't make any difference to the car itself but your photos will be awesome

I don't know about those housings, but those drop-in LEDs output won't fill the housing and aren't that bright compared to the stock incandescent bulb.

Automatic Headlights

Hi
I like the thought of replacing my manual headlight switch with the automatic headlight switch. Did Ford offer the S197 with automatic headlights and is it just a matter of replacing one switch with the other?

Thank you

Christian

QUOTE=killaz05;6913316]I like my stubby antenna and have had absolutely no reduction in FM reception but Tampa is a decently populated city so I would assume the radio transmitters are close by.

I like my battery and master cylinder covers. You can get them for 80.99 now compared to 89.99 normally at CJ Pony and I am sure there is a forum discount to get even more off. They add some organization under the hood haha

Another neat cheap mod for those of us with base models is getting the automatic headlight switch. Under $20 and just replaces the regular headlight switch then boom. Automatic headlights when wipers turn on and/or it gets dark out. Adds that little something extra.[/QUOTE]

The free and quick exhaust mod:

Flip down the rear seats. Now you can hear your exhaust a lot better.

Zero cost, and only takes about 15 seconds to "install"

Welt around door panel and 69' mustang door emblems were both well under $75. Did this on my 13' and now my 12'.

Thanks!!!! Got the "Silver Tinsel Welt" on ebay. Got an entire roll for pretty cheap a few years ago. This guys sells it here as well:

The running pony emblems from CJ Pony parts:

Took off the door panels and drilled 2 holes in each panel for the mounting pins. After attaching the 2 nuts on the back of each emblem I cut the excess pin length off and filed them down so they wouldn't interfere with anything inside the door

Sound tube delete on my 2016 GT for 3$. I bought two plugs at Home Hardware and got rid of that god-awful sound tube. Seriously: I like my Stangs loud but the idea of having to increase noise in the cabin with a 5l v8 make me laugh my socks off. And that tube deserve Engineering Uglyness Award of the Year.
