Initially I ordered also from CJ Pony Parts, but they were going to take about a week just to ship, then I cancelled the order.I reordered from the Redline website and they were shipped the same day. No backorder issuses there.

Hi Stang Fans, I just picked up my '13 GT/premium last night and am anxiously waiting for my Redline Hood Struts to be delivered by UPS today I think is the delivery date. After much research and reviews, I too went with the Redline. Especially sans extra bracket and painting issues. I am sure they will work great. Beautiful trunk struts, but no hood struts. Can't figure it out as to what the heck was the development team thinking.
Anyways, I have one question for you '13 GT/premium owners out there.
I was sitting in the car last night for a while playing around with the tech (That Electronics Pack Sirius and Shaker Pro Audio are "Out Of This World") stuff and could not find the My Color reset menu button to change gauge color and ambient lighting settings and all those other cool settings.
Well I have to admit I did have a few Chianti wines with dinner and also left my Manual in my other car parked at the dealer so for now can you please lead me to the settings buttons, switches or whatever.
I have to wait to go pick up my other car tonight and am getting frustrated already.
Thank YOu,

Really stupid question, but has anyone dropped one of the brackets into the hole in the hood? I was in a hurry, only had it seated by one thread and I dropped it into the hood... it slid down inside there down towards the hinge... I feel like an idiot, but I was losing daylight, and really wanted these things installed tonight... I can't seem to think of a way to fish it out of there, it's not magnetic and it doesn't float and I can't vac it out... I have a feeling I'm going to live with one of those brackets inside my hood forever!!

Yeah, I just emailed them as well... If I don't hear anything back by early afternoon I'm just going to take it into the body shop and see if they have any tricks, or if we're going to have to take the hood off... I'm not gonna lie, I'm tempted just to leave it in there (I can't hear it rattling around), and just get a new bracket from Redline... I'll post an update later this evening...

I like these better. Higher quality dis cast brackets.. Cheaper and better quality.... Seen em on a few 12's and they work great + they are better engineered to distribute the force of the single mounting point of the redline kit. & the brackets are pre painted the correct Ford colors. IMHO its not even close
