    Differences between the S197 model years?

    Does anyone know what the differences are between the 05-06-07-08-09 Mustangs? I'm talking about mechanical differences, option availability, etc. For example, I know that 07+ can get the "premier trim" option, and I've read that 08+ have an updated/improved shifter.

    The "premier trim" package with stitched leather dash etc.

    Was this option available on all of the 05+ Mustang GTs or did it start at 06, 07, 08? Also, if anyone could post some pics of this option that would be great!

    How do I remove the fill plug on the differential

    I know I've located at the fill plug (I've seen numerous pictures) but I can't figure out how to remove the thing! It appears round, no socket fits over it either. What am I supposed to do, pry it off?

    So, I just had my car in the shop so they could take off the upper intake manifold to fix a coolant leak. When I got it back the wipers don't work.. they don't move at all when I turn them on. What kind of things can I look for, before I go through the trouble of replacing the wiper motor...

    Coolant Leak near back of engine

    I have a coolant leak that I can't seem to trace down. It seems to be at the back of the engine, leaks onto the tranny, then leaks onto the ground. I've looked at the hoses around the throttle body and heater core and I don't see any leaks or holes in them. The leak seems to be very fast at...

    '88 GT Cali model w/ mass air - hesitation/stumble at high RPM WOT?

    I just picked up my next Fox body 5.0, an '88 GT 5-speed with factory mass air (the California Mustangs in '88 got mass air instead of speed density) The car has been running great overall, except for one big problem - under WOT, the car stumbles and hesitates when the revs go past 4000. It...

    Question about mounting a 5" Monster Tach

    My bro is going to help me put this in my car this weekend. We were looking at the tach, and it looks like it would be really hard to screw in the screws to the dash without taking the tach off of the little mount.. is this possible or do we have to deal with it how it is? Thanks Molly
