I finally have time to post what I did last weekend! What a week. Suggestion, don't buy a new car, then spend money on mods, AND move all at the same time.

I installed the Redline Accessories shifter boot, e-brake boot, and armrest cover. They are the charcoal color with black stitching. The shifter and armrest cover where easy, but the e-brake was a PITA. Nothing wanted to fit right. It took a lot of messing around, but I got it to work. It's not as nice a fit as I would like, but considering they have limited access to the Mustang, they did well. I'm happy, and it looks great.

I also installed the sequential turn signal kit I got off of Ebay for $50. The instructions where good, and the hardware was good quality. The install took maybe an hour. That was taking my time. Yes, I had to cut two wires. Oh the horror! Here is a short video of them in action. I decided to show the brake lights since everybody knows what the turn signals look like.

Oh, almost forgot, I also installed the shift **** I got months ago from Mustang Tuning. I had to drill it and retap it, and come up with a washer and spacer system to make the boot fit around it. I love it, and it feels great.

Sequential tail lights

And now pics (the last one is of the sequential turn signal module, right side):

very nice, although I think I would run the extra wire to make the brake lights work normally

I've been watching ebay for the last week and I can't find the $50 kits up there anymore. The cheapest is $70 shipped for Web Electric's splice kit but I don't like how they blink so fast. How does your blink speed compare to the vids for Web Electric?

That vid Web Electric has is crap. It's a gif file that uses several seperate shots of the tail light. Notice how the bulbs don't dim out. The bulbs actually take a split second to reach full brightness, then a second to dim out. It completely changes the look.

Here is the email for the place I got mine from: teddy044@juno.com
They are called M&M Electronics. On Ebay, they where asking $60, but where taking offers. I offered $50 and they took it. Shipping was only $4.

Bryan has a video of his. They are from the same place. Link to thread The flash speed is limited by the electronic flasher in the car.

Sounds like the way to go for the Sequentials. Have you heard of anyone replacing the turn signal module to change blink speed?

Hi
I like the look of the boot and shift **** very much.
My brother has a 2001 corvette and the look of the e-brake boot
are quite similar.
You did a nice installation job!

Hey Lowe!
Round Rock eh?
Stones throw.... How would you change the signal module?
Do they make them in different speeds?
