Pony Projectors?
Hey everybody!

I scoured the Internet this morning for pictures or video of the 2013 Pony Projectors, but didn't find much...
There are some 2013 Mustangs in the wild now, so I was hoping to see how well they work.
Anybody have pics, or even better yet... video?
Thanks!

Well... Since I live in Japan and all, I think that rice looks mighty yummy!
Great! Now I'm hungry!

Anyways, regardless of how "ricey" they may or may not be, I'm still curious how well they work. I'd really appreciate some pics!

Thanks!

Funny how you think the feature is ricey, but Ford (an American company) is the first one to develop this, and is not copying a design from an oversea's company. So how again is this ricey? Maybe you don't like it because your car doesn't have it?

BTW OP, check the last page of "1st delivery of 2013 stangs" for a pic

Ford is the first one to make the emblem, not the first to do the concept. It's called "puddle lights". Here are some other manufacturers that have done it:
2011 Subaru Forester
Nissan
2011 jaguar XJ

Also, a lot of the after market 'puddle light' companies seem to have 'jdm' in their name. Just from googling for that.

Those are pretty good pics!
The pony is sharper than I expected, but it's a little hard to tell how big it is.
It looks a little small.

Yes they are much larger then I expected them to be. I also think they are cool and I thought I wouldn't like that either.

I actually don't mind them at all. They're intriguing. I thought I'd hate them, but they're actually not bad at all.

I'm more intrigued by the heated mirrors that come with them. Hopefully the mirrors are plug and play on cars that aren't equipped with the Comfort Package.

They're pretty sweet. I would definitely retrofit them into my GT500 if I could.
