07 AC Controls

I bought a set from Brothers Performance....that states that they fit the 2007 Mustang.....said to pull old ***** off and simply replace with the new Chromed beauties that they sold me.....well when I went to pull mine off....it broke in half....leaving the piece still on the shaft.....thats when I noticed that the ***** that they sold me would not have worked anyway.....they dont have a long enough piece on the back of the ***** to reach the shafts....now I have a broken **** and no replacements.... I would sure like to find a Billet Set to put back

We're waiting on our new toy.

When it arrives, we will be able to do this part in one shot, and many others that people say just "can't be done."

That's the hold-up, just so you know.

Yankee, I feel for you - but so long as you didn't damage the little triangle inner portion, our replacement will take care of you no problem. I always hated the idea of "just" doing a cover.

Nice =/ workie.

The 07 is a potentiometer moreso than prior years, before they had a center shaft that has now been eliminated. The pieces you have would work great on an 05-06, but not an 07.

Do not pull the rest of the **** out / apart, anything like that. The head unit takes some work and special torx bits to take apart, and you yanking on it will not help things. At 180+ from the dealer for a new head unit, you are better off just popping what you have back on for now as best as possible and sitting tight until we get the pieces to market.

I would like to see a set machined like the original set (same design /shape) but in a brushed finish

Ours will have the acrylic for the lighting, and will fit similar to OEM - but be a bit different in the shape of the handle than stock. We're expecting to hear about our new machine today...

Machine is in limbo at the moment, so we're going to work around it with an existing 3-axis+rotary 4th axis setup. We just brought a NASA machinist on board to help with the workload, he starts in a couple weeks. Hopefully, this will speed our "time to market" of this, and other products I've had bouncing around in my head but can't get time to complete for everyone that has been so patient.
