The headlight switch bezel is not sold separately from the switch. Cheapest way to get one is buy a used 2010-2012 base Model switch and bezel and then swap switches.

This freakin part is going to be the BANE of my existence. Holy crap I have never had so much trouble finding a part before! :-\
I bought mine cheap off ebay ... just buy a base model 2010-2012 switch and swap your Foglight switch into the plain housing. I don't think you can buy just the housing ...
This is kinda pricey but I bought one of these and swapped my switch.

Hi All,
quick update. EPAS came in today. Looked at it and found two issues to resolve before the retrofit can happen:
1st: Need a way to get the bracket marked in picture below retrofitted (don't necessarily want to buy a new K-Member)... Only there with EPAS, mine doesn't have it. If i want to do it right, i need to remove the K-Member and weld it on...or buy a new K-Member ($309 OE Ford, $480 aftermarket)... Now you guys know the difference between 05-10 and 11-14 K-Members... the additional bracket for the EPAS
2nd: I need the connectors to retrofit the wiring. That requires some research. I couldn't find them yet. If anybody has an idea which connector type C1453A and C1453B are? That would help.
Thanks,
LEXiiON

You should through up a want to buy post on the svt performance forum and see if any of the 2011-2014 guys have there stock k-member for sale. A few guys have upgraded there to the bmr or some other after market brand.
Zeroaviation, I was wondering do you think it would be possible for me to flash my PCM to a 2013 GT500 PCM firmware with calibration? I can't for the life of me get the the ABS or Traction Control lights to turn off. My tuner said that getting me a new tune in order to get my car to run would be easy. He is just concern is that everything in my car communicate as it should with no DTC's, etc.

-I just did it..... I'm am now DR3A-12A650-AJD, I used to be BR3A-12C204-BKA.
My Strategy used to be FGDH3S3 and now is FGFC3C5.
-Now when I connect the IDS to my car it shows as 5.8L instead of the 5.4L.
All gauges work with the black box off and the switch even though it was modified still works fine so far.
-Now the bad news, I still have the ABS and Traction Control light on. I reflashed the ABS and did the as built data. Any idea's anyone?
-I now have to get the tune on my car updated since it is running lean due to larger intake, TB and Supercharger over the factory 2013 GT500 PCM calibrations.
By the way, It only took less than 10 minutes from start to finish when IDS programmed my PCM to include the time it took to erase it.

The PCM will flash. But 2013 gt500 has differnt engine so that is the problem. You have to pmi the abs module with your vin.

Which means, I need to order a new one ..grrrrr
And that seller sold me a bad module...
And it also means, I could have tried until my Stang is a piece of rust until that thing would ever have worked...

Yup.. He flashed his original 2012 PCM to the 2013 code and did a PMI again on the ABS module... I believe that thing is dead, as it should have worked with his 2012 PCM code, too.
It would have never ever worked in my GT...and it never did

Just spent 2 hours on phone .. and NO GO. We PMI with His VIN. PMI with 2013 VIN. Change VIN in PCM to match VIN used for 2013 PMI .. still software mismatch error.
So Jim and I were able to do PMI and it worked. We went from a 5.0 to a 5.0 .
Lex is having problems .. but he is going from 4.6 to 5.0.
BES is having problems .. but he is going from a 5.4 to a 5.8.
Not sure if changing engine has anything to do with it.
And I put a used ABS module in my car and it worked fine. Jim put a new ABS module in his car and it worked fine.
