    Kentucky Vapor Blue “Spoiler Delete” Rear Decklid - trade for mine with deck mount spoiler?

    My car came with with a deck mounted spoiler but I’d rather have the deck lid that is slick - no spoiler at all. I understand that these pieces just bolt on with nuts found inside the trunk deck lid behind a trim panel? If so, and you’ve got the spoiler-delete deck lid panel in Vapor Blue...

    DIY (photo essay) for Ford Performance under hood strut brace kit

    I noticed just a bit of a harsher ride over the local rough two-lane country roads, but no difference out on I-65. I haven’t had time to go for a fun drive where I can stick the car into a few corners. I wonder how the 300A suspension parts are otherwise with respect to the non performance...

    DIY (photo essay) for Ford Performance under hood strut brace kit

    Instructions said to…but I did not. I got the metal parts under that thick cable anyway.

    DIY (photo essay) for Ford Performance under hood strut brace kit

    My 300A car came without either of these under hood bracing parts at all - just a piece of plastic trim as shown In the photos below. While I had not yet had reason to complain about the handling of my new car, this ought to tighten things up just a bit, especially when going hard in the...

    Retrofit an ACM (head unit) that has HD and SXM into my 300A car?

    I did just this in my 2023 F250 XLT because I had the ACM on hand - came out of a 2021 F-150. After some Forscan coding I got full functionality in my truck. So, my new S650 Mustang has the base ACM and I’m considering the same upgrade path, or not…. Why not you ask? Because I’ve learned just...

    SYNC 4 & Android Auto/Apple Car Play Poll

    Might be phone-dependent as well. My iPhone 15 Pro works great w CarPlay in both this car and my 2023 Super Duty - both on Sync 4.

    Removed Door Panels for Speaker Upgrade - DIY Writeup

    Good point and I plan to eventually code out any EQ in the head unit to use my AudioControl DSP amp in the car. I dropped the forscan folks a line to ask about adding our cars to their working list. Haven’t tried to connect for two weeks now though. If they EQ out the front door bass in a...

    Is my GT engine missing a strut bar?

    Excellent thread. My 300A car came with neither part, so I used some Ford points to order this Kit.

    Removed Door Panels for Speaker Upgrade - DIY Writeup

    Here’s a view of the window switch area along with the midrange speaker opening. Look how close that deeper panel is to the face of the door. This piece was down tight! New car… I think that the 9 and 12 speaker cars have a mounting bracket that goes here to offset the stock midrange out a...

    Removed Door Panels for Speaker Upgrade - DIY Writeup

    My 300a car had the base system. It had a woofer in each door plus a tweeter in the A pillar, and 2 woofers on the packages tray. I wanted to use a set of 3-way Focal 165AS3 as I love the way they have sounded in my other cars. These would definitely be rated a “DOES NOT FIT” by Crutchfield...

    Michelin pilot all season 4s vs Continental Extreme contact DWS

    Great question about my two favorite tires! I’ve had these on several vehicles in the past few years. You can’t go wrong with either. However, based on your needs/wants relayed to us I’d say you go with the Continentals and (literally) enjoy the ride. Purely subjective here but I liked the...

    300A GT 6MT test drive

    Yes indeed, the seats are all cloth, as are those inserts on the door panels. Notice that there is no e-brake (drift?) handle either, just a small switch. Guess I’ll have to drift in my Godzilla F250SD! Uh, no…. It also seems like they left off some of that chrome trim around bezels, etc...

    300A GT 6MT test drive

    I drove a red 401A first, then bought my 300A. They make so much standard in these cars that I decided to forego the usual upgrades and focus on a great engine. I’ll eventually do a custom audio system. This one has the Active Valve Exhaust (AVE). Only other option was the 19” wheels. I...

    S650 Aftermarket Sound System

    Knowing that I would have to do a custom install featuring my AudioControl D-6.1200 DSP amp, I am considering my options for the 300A base 6 speaker audio in mine. The door panels actually have grilles molded in for the midrange driver location so they can stay. A set of Focal 165AS3 3-ways...
