I think you're right, at least for us Americans.
I saw a clever idea online to find a driver's seat from a right hand drive Mustang, but not likely to be able to source that cheaply here in the US.
Curious to hear technician or expert opinions on this.
On Camaros and Corvettes I've encountered alignment hardware being TTY/1-time use, but I don't know if people ever actually get a proper job per OEM protocol. Best alignment shop in town was pissed when I asked if I could supply them...
But muffler deletes and most axle-backs are essentially just a simple pipe going back, no? It seems like a relatively uncomplicated setup.
I think the other reason why muffler deletes aren't more common is they sound very bad if combined with X/H/headers. Raspy/tin can from what I heard. But I...
Unpopular opinion: muffler delete or axle-back.
Below for example is the cheapest reasonable-quality (409/304 SS) S650-fitting axle-back I could find after obsessively scouring the internet. Notice how the family comment that it's not dramatically louder, but a much deeper tone. That's exactly...
Ok ok then, I have a perfect S550/S650 cross-over question for these esteemed and seasoned Mustang6G old-timers. Here's one that'll stump ya, which I haven't been able to get a consistent answer to:
Do '15-'17 Mustang GT axle-back exhausts (single tip on each side) fit '24+ Mustang GTs without...
Base Mustang passenger seats don't even have manual height adjustment.
Is there a seat bottom part I can buy to add the pump handle for raising the passenger seat?
Thanks for the tip. Kind of scary someone already had serious subframe deterioration on a new model car, even if it was exposed to some salt/water. I thought American cars were known to be stronger against rust, whereas Japanese cars rusted more easily.
I found a similar sound online, is this the sound you're referring to? (faint whistle-rattle)
This is what that owner said in response to one of the comments:
"Unfortunately as weird and annoying as the noise is, it is not known to be a "problem" so it was not fixed. This was in my 6 speed...
Are you referring to the light metallic ringing noise? I've also heard it sometimes on my 2025 base auto GT a few times when letting off low throttle. I haven't heard it enough to piece together the specific conditions for it, but you may be on to something.
My 6th gen Camaro came from the factory with a layer of clear hard plastic protecting this area. It did work, I had a couple nicks in that plastic after 15K miles before I sold the car.
My Camry also had a similar hard clear plastic 'factory PPF' along the rear doorsills.
Ford should totally...
That's what I'm thinking of doing. Also happens to be the cheapest, easiest, least-intrusive option.
Another thing for base (single-tip) exhaust owners is the 2015-2017 axlebacks also fit (according to Steeda videos and at least one major Mustang parts website). I was hoping to find some older...
@Skye thanks for the internal pic. I think it basically confirms my understanding is correct. Active exhaust has basically a straight-through pipe (similar to muffler delete) that can be closed off so that exhaust gets shunted to another pathway (muffled path). Therefore, it's like a toggle-able...
OP shows a different connector than what I posted. OP's is 5-pin, but I'm showing a different 3-pin connector by the rain sensor itself (the thing that looks like an encased coin battery). The 3-pin is technically the rain sensor connector. Base model Mustangs don't have a 5-pin like OP, but we...
The rain sensor plug you're piggybacking off of to power your radar detector--which wire is positive and which one is ground? I don't have a multimeter right now
Is it like this?
How does active exhaust full loud (track mode/locked open/fuse-pulled) compare to a muffler delete?
Had a Camaro with active exhaust and it seemed to be basically a variable muffler delete. I pulled the fuse to make it perma-open for the entire 4 years I owned it, so got no value out of the...
Recently picked up a 2025 Mustang in California (front plate state) and the dealer surprisingly did not drill into the front of any of their Mustangs on their lot. Just had to sign a form with the F&I guy saying I didn't want them to install front plate. Was a pleasant surprise.
There DOES appear to be a factory screen protector on there. For MY2024 it was like OP pic, slightly smaller than the screen itself, so you can see the raised edge on the screen surface. For MY2025, the factory screen protector is actually slightly bigger than the screen and extends beyond the...
My 2024 Mustang Ecoboost was low on coolant (and maybe a slow leak?), traded in for a 2025 Mustang GT and took pictures of the starting coolant and oil levels after I got back from the dealership, mostly for monitoring purposes. The levels were OK on this one
For 2025's that sounds about right. 2024 base GTs were under 40K in May-June 2024.
Lowest prices tend to be mid-Atlantic volume dealers: Ourisman, Koons, Sheehy in the MD/VA area. Some of those franchises have multiple locations in that area. They'll advertise like 6-7K under MSRP (+1K...
Unfortunately, I don't think you can start in the quietest mode. Cars run louder on startup because of needing to get the catalytic converter up to temp/build backpressure or something like that.
I too want to be considerate of my neighbors and HOAs and the only solution I could think of was...
