  1. One mod you love and wouldn't change. And one you kinda regret?

    ( + ) Paddle shifters on non PP Ecoboost and Billet Werks shifter ( - ) None
  2. Barely Drving Car in the Winter salt?

    I use an oscillating lawn sprinkler for the undercarriage - just move it around. I also take drives when the sun shines and the roads are clear, but, keep the car covered and on a charger when the weather is inclement. Unless you plan on keeping the car for a LONG time, I would just enjoy the...
  3. Steep Driveway

    I have a slight dip, then an slope "up" - I knew BEFORE I bought my Mustang, it was VERY close, but it did not scrape. I drove the car home during a test drive to check the clearance. I did the same thing before buying my '24 F-250 to be sure it would fit in my garage (these trucks are very...
  4. Mustang Unleashed not available on 26MY??

    I can confirm "Mustang Unleashed" is alive and well - I am registered for the event in mid April. My selling dealer told me about the event when I took delivery of my 2026. FWIW
  5. Smallest Dash Cam?

    Shortly after getting my Mustang I purchased what I believed was the smallest camera that would fit behind my mirror, and was USB powered. (I have a convertible so no rear camera) It was barely visible from the drivers seat. Then, one afternoon walking to my car from a store, a guy was...
  6. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    Wow - that has to be really frustrating. The first thing I would do is change EVERYTHING back to your factory "as built" data. Even things you might have changed that were unrelated to the paddle shifters. Hopefully you made a "back up" copy of your "as built" data before you made ANY...
  7. Rain Sensing Wipers

    The simple answer - keep your windshield, especially in front of the rain sensor, VERY clean, and, keep your wipers clean and fresh (wipe them with alcohol or other oil free cleaner) The IR and sensor detects water / moisture in front of the sensor which triggers the wipers. Moisture left on...
  8. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    Well congrats on taking the "plunge" and popping off the airbag to check your wiring. I look forward to hearing about whether or not the base GT wheel gives you paddle shifters. Adding the paddles was the first mod I made to my 2026 EB after purchase. You will not regret the result. This is...
  9. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    I tend to agree with you, as I swapped a DH wheel in my Ecoboost, but my EB had all of the left had premium functions and heat, so no switch changes were necessary. But, the fact that the OP's paddles don't work, after swapping the left hand switches -IF they were done correctly (the OP paid to...
  10. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    Did you read this thread from the beginning?? There is no dispute that a DH wheel will retrofit to an Ecoboost ... perhaps you can explain how you got your DH wheel (w/ adapt cruise and heat) to work on a BASE model Ecoboost without those features ... unless you also had those premium...
  11. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    Well ... you have a new DH wheel, your life is saved and your paddles don't work .... You have watched an install video that references TWICE that a DH wheel "might" not work on your base Ecoboost, but, their install of a GT wheel DID. IF, you still, really want paddles and follow their...
  12. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    ..... At aprox the 13:00 sec mark in the video, he references the fact that the internal connectors might not be the same between the DH wheel and your base wheel because of the left side switch differences ...... It's possibe that whoever swapped your wheels did not make all of the...
  13. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    You are at a big disadvantage in trouboleshooting your problem, by not being able or willing to do the mechanical exchange of the steering wheel. It took me longer to do the Forscan changes than to swap wheels. Anyway, you probably watched the following video, and if so, at aprox the 6:50...

    Unless you have been on a different planet for the past 4 decades, that's just not the world we live in today. Lest you forget your days on the force, you didn't make the laws, you were hired to enforce them. You didn't get to pick and choose which laws to enforce. When that becomes an issue...

    After 20 years in county law enforcement, the changes in law enforcement have been profound over the last decade. There are few professions that compare. Regardless of your opinion of law enforcement officers, they reflect a cross section of our social consciousness, which vary by geographic...

    I was a police officer for 12 years. Then your department is probably better served that you found a different occupation ......
  17. Window Tint

    Not sure about Houston, but, our county law enforcement ALWAYS have a reason for a traffic stop. Every patrol car is equipped with dash cams and every officer with body cams, activated before ANY interaction with a citizen. All footage is archived for a decade. If the result of a traffic stop...
  18. Need Help w/ Installing Paddle Shifter Setup!

    See my post # 13 - https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/using-forscan-and-being-intimidated-by-it.172900/#post-3453739 I made the listed changes before changing the steering wheel, and the paddles worked (plug n play) immediately. Also gear display worked. It sounds like your paddles DO...
  19. Window Tint

    You are absolutely right and I agree ........ Unfortuneately, the OP did provide the cop with probable cause ....... AND, that often results in catching "bad guys".
  20. Window Tint

    Probable cause stops, even as sketchy as yours, take more drug dealers / users, under the influence drivers, bad guys with warrants, revoked, uninsured, licenseless drivers etc ... off the streets, than any other law enforcement action. FWIW (20 years county law enforcement)
