OK, you've got 7 years on me. Bored yet?
He asks the guy with a Mustang convertible.
You know the answer to that! Since 2007, I've had the choice to do what I want, when I want, for as long as I want! If I was bored, it would be my fault, and I would not be doing it right! Trust me, I'm doing it right! Glenn

I kind of pull on the frame of the GT logo, just until gravity finishes the closing job.
Zero fingerprints visible.

Sister topic would be how to close the doors from the outside.
I can't stand it when people push on the windows ... :curse:

Ah, a good one... Fingerprints on the door edges or door handles with that one. I push from the edge of the door usually.

That's why I keep microfiber towels handy. I do a lot of events and no matter what you try to tell people, fingerprints are a major hassle. Especially on the windows.

I usually touch the moulding around the bottom of the window. One finger only and then wipe it clean with whatever shirt I'm wearing. Glenn

That would be a defence for murder. "He pushed on my frameless car window, your Honour".
No case to answer, you're free to go.

Not so much closing as opening, but I’ve had my Mustang since January and only just spotted at the weekend as I was plugging in my OBD adapter that there is a trunk release button next to the headlight switches. Now we just need Steeda to replicate the s550 pop trunk struts on the s650 so we can OPEN the trunk without touching it - @tj@steeda any progress on these?

For the most part, silver doesn't show prints, so the doors don't show.

My trunk panel is blacked out, so I am aware of that a bit more.

I'd also like a trunk opening strut.

My wife used to use her foot to close the van door if she had stuff in her hands, which she usually does after going shopping. She gently uses her butt to close the Mustang door if she has to, but she's a lot more careful with her car than the van. :)
