Hello,

I have been Emailing Ford Accessories at FORD CORPORATE Quite a Bit Here Lately and Now I have been offered the Chance To Relay New Product Ideas and Concerns to the Accessory Team. I welcome any Ideas, But Realize what kind of Items they Currently Offer and What would be Most Likely for them to Actually Sell. The More Popular an Item the More Likely it is to be Offered in the Future. Items offered by other New Car Manufacturers and Items offered by Ford on Other Vehicles but not on the Mustang would probably be the easiest product Ideas to turn into reality. Do your best to Present a Strong Case on what and why you Think an Item would be a Good Seller for FORD ACCESORIES. Also Remember to Voice your Concerns of Current Products if there is a Problem.

1) Both front seats, that keep the tilt memory!! I find myself putting stuff in the back, and having to set my tilt again. I realize this isn't really an accessory

Well, I don't use my car everyday, and if it sits more than 3 weeks, the battery goes dead. I'd propose a battery tender unit, with a hidden plug somewhere. As it is, my car sits covered in the garage, with the hood unlatched, with my battery tender connected by alligator clips . It would be safer, and easier if this unit was able to be a nice built in type of unit.
HTH,
DanG

Ducktail
Chin Spoiler
Factory louvers ala 1968 style

Suspension options.

2) Shorty or no antenna.
