    94-98 Air Bags in a 99-04? Mustang Used Part Websites?

    I can't find an answer to this question anywhere. My '99 Mustang needs new air bags, and Ive found a set on Ebay from a '95 that look identical, as the interiors did not change within the two generations. Does anyone know if 95 air bags will work in a 99? If you don't know the answer to...

    Cost of air bag replacement?

    Long story short, my tires are bald (I was going to replace them next week) and there was a new asphalt road with misty rain... A truck slammed its brakes for no apparent reason, and I slammed mine, but my car slid like it was on ice into the truck's trailer hitch. :( Not a scratch on the...

    Fixing Curb Marks on Wheels?

    Man, I'm so pissed off right now. I just bought a set of OEM Cobra wheels to freshen up the GT a couple months ago. They looked awesome, until I washed the car today. One is badly damaged with a long curb mark. These are the stock machined finish. Is there any way these can be fixed, or do...

    Strange Starting Issue...Please help

    A few days ago, my '99 GT barely started, but I figured I was just being critical, as I've never had a problem with it before. Today, it started up confidently in the morning, showing no warning signs. After my last class today, I started the car to go home, it almost started, but it faded...

    Aftermarket Vs. OEM Smoked Headlights

    I've decided to replace the clear headlights on my '99 with some smoked ones. Ebay has a ton of aftermarket sets for like $100 shipped that look identical to the OEM Ford ones. Has anyone purchased these to see if they look crappy in person or if they're poor quality? I can get an OEM set...

    More suspension questions: Springs, C/C, X2, Bumpsteer, SFC

    So I'd like to get an '05 GT, but paying for college, that's not a possibility anytime soon. After keeping the car stock for 5 years ('99 GT), I at least need a refreshening. Having read these forums for some time, suspension work appears to get the most noticeable improvements. I just...

    New Colors for 2006?

    I'm not sure if this is old to you or not, but I found this on Brad's site: http://bradbarnett.net/mustangs/timeline/05/06/index.htm If this is accurate, do you think some of those are renamed colors or completely new colors? For example, "Ebony" sounds like renamed "Black" and "Lime...

    Quick Cobra Wheel Question...

    2005 Depreciation Rate

    Ok, so this is probably not a topic all the new buyers want to think about, but here's a dose of reality. How well do you think the 2005 Mustang (particularly the GT) will hold its value, specifically in comparison to the 1999-2004 generation? I was just thinking....I picked up my 1999 GT...

    Battery light on at high rpms?

    While I thought this was normal, as I remembered my '99 GT always doing it, my friend said this is a definite problem. When I shift late at high rpms (nearly redlining it), the entire car just dims and the battery light comes on. What's the problem here, and do you have any explanation if this...

    Be the First to Own 2005 Seats...

    I was browsing Ebay, and look what I found: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2472582626&category=33701 How the hell these are being sold already, who knows... But, now you can set these up in your house, watch TV in them, sleep in them, and pretend you...

    1999-2004 Clear Foglights Before/After?

    Does anyone else feel our stock GT foglights look dated on the current Mustang? They're slotted and foggy-looking in comparison to the headlights. So, I was thinking of installing a set of these clear ones...

    Removing Dents Problem---Tried Ding King

    Sigh...I knew my 99' GT wouldn't stay perfect/dent-free forever, but I've managed to keep it virtually flawless/dent-free by parking away from cars up until last weekend. I check the car over all the time, and I didn't notice anything until my mom took my Stang for the weekend. :mad...

    Weird Random Noise Problem on 99 GT

    First off...thanks to everyone for contributing to these forums. I've found someone can almost always relate and help with issues here (I'll always try to return the favor if I can). For the last few months, my car has been making this very strange moaning noise that comes and goes. The...

    Nu-Finish or Meguiar's 9/7/26

    Hello. Without any knowledge of wax or this site, I bought into the Nu-Finish commercial and got some a year ago. It was very easy and quick to apply, and I have no complaints. The last time I applied was 3-4 months ago, the water still beads off, dirt washes away with water, and it looks...

    2005 Mustang Seat Comfort

    I know the new Mustang seats have been mentioned briefly before, but I think it's worth discussing in more detail--haven't we had enough 20k V8? :D Current situation: I'm over 6 feet tall, 175lbs (pretty normal), and after 5 years, I still look forward to driving my 99' GT everyday...

    Is there a Ford Credit Card?

    So I got a promo for the GM credit card, and I think it's a great idea. If you're not familiar with the rewards program, you get 5% cash back on everything into an account towards the purchase of a new GM vehicle (there are some limits). Problem is...I can't think of any GM vehicles I'm...

    Yearly styling changes on 2005+ Mustang

    We've all seen the new Mustang design and have made our judgements. This thread questions how the factory styling will change from year to year, how different special editions/Cobras will look, and even questions the successor to the 2005 Mustang. If you look at the last 6 years of Mustang...

    Cold weather causing problems?

    I have a 99' GT, and I haven't had any problems with it. Well, last night the temperatures got down to about -2 degrees F with high winds, and being covered in snow/ice, the car was frozen solid. So, today I started the car (it was about 10 degrees), and it BARELY started. The battery has...

    Can I add traction control to my 99 GT?

    Alright, so it's finally winter, and my car isn't happy. Fortunately, there hasn't been any snowy weather yet, but it will soon be here. All I have to drive is my 99' GT, and the only option it doesn't have is all-speed traction control. While my city usually gets the streets cleared very...
