Talking greetings mustang owners

Hi I just picked up my first mustang a couple days ago! I bought a 2008 convertible v6 4.0 litre. I bought it because it is in really good condition and I didn't want to buy a top of the line model first off as I am planning on learning how to modify cars using this and don't want to ruin an extremely expensive one just yet. My first project is figuring out how to turn off my traction control, I've been looking around and I'm sure there's no button but there definitely is traction control. ( learned that by having it botching my attempt at drifting infront of my girlfriend). any help would be greatly appreciated and I'm excited to hear any other suggestions to upgrade my mustang!

Congrats and welcome to TMS! There is a traction control button below the center vents. It says TCS off.

Can you post a picture of the center stack ( above the radio)?

Congrats! A custom tune really wakes up the 4.0 and the only weakness is the thermostat housing, get one of these and no worries!

Hmm, I think you got a base convertible which doesn't have the TCS button. My 08 was a deluxe and had the button.

So would it be easier to install a button or just take out the actual fuse for traction control? I'm ok with doing either
