    Seat belts wont retract *old and worn out*

    Replaced my drivers side as it doubled over in the shoulder loop, then retracted back in and jammed. They are a serious pain in the butt. Not too difficult to replace though, pop out the rear squab, then tease out the main plastic rear trim. Then stare in amazement about how you've nearly...

    Turn Signal flasher relay--location

    Thanks. This was the only post I could find in the whole world that helped me find the darned thing. My Haynes manual says it's attached to the side of the fuse box!!:notnice:

    MM LCAs - Does this seem right to you guys?

    Should definately be the exact same length. I installed mine with a PB, and the installers would have noticed that they had to muscle those puppys in to fit.

    drivers window problem

    Gents, I've searched for a couple of days on various sites regarding a duff drivers window. More specifically the window started to clunk when at the bottom of travel recently, I ignored this for a few days. Then it started to wind up/down enevenly (front up rear down) making a huge clunk...

    PHB - install ?

    It's fairly straightforward, just don't drill until you've measured up about 10 times. I fitted mine with the help of a friend and a ramp, I wouldn't fancy doing it on my own with jack stands! I also used a laser guide to line up both sides where the rod is bolted. The ramp also helped me to...

    Power window problem.

    I'd like to know as well. Mine aren't as bad as yours yet, the front is about 1/8th inch lower than the back. This means I can't shut the door with the window up, I have to roll the window down a bit, shut the door, then roll the window back up.

    How to remove a door panel?

    I need to remove the passenger side door panel, as the window glass has dropped at the leading edge about 1/8 th of an inch. This means a horrid wind whistle at speed. I'm guessing the runners have come loose somehow. I'm pretty sure I'll have to pop out the window switches, but there aren't...

    1/4 times for stock auto

    Bone stock, and I mean bone stock 01 and a half GT auto coupe. 5 passes within a tenth of 14.6, at about 94-95 mph. Stock tyres too. Put it in D, traction control on, and just hit it.

    Gearbox or rear axle whine?? Help!

    The diff fluid is full, and didn't appear to be bad. I was under the impression that running an auto trans on coast/neutral was toast for the trans???

    Gearbox or rear axle whine?? Help!

    Yes they are rare over here, especially in yellow. I only know of three others. In general, I would estimate that there are less than 40 or so 1999-03 Mustangs of any variation in the country. There is a mustang club for the UK, but they're pretty much dedicated to the 60's-70's model.

    Gearbox or rear axle whine?? Help!

    There was a thread that I found that asked the same question, but was a manual car, and he had a bad clutch bearing. Mines a 2001 Auto GT, that has started to develop a whine primarily on throttle lift off, and from higher speeds. It's really difficult to hear where's it's coming from, but...

    trying to fit a 98 K&N FIPK onto my 01

    That's about a good as fit as my BBK was! Like the peeps already said, size up some new hoses.

    Headlight knob help

    What the guys said, however when you've got a small flathead screwdriver in the slot and are pushing the latching mechanism towards you, make sure you keep a firm pulling pressure on the headlight knob. Think Torque not HP :D

    Maximum Motorsport LCA's install notes

    I used a mechanic friends ramp to put in the MM LCA's today, (Ok, he did most of it) and I'd just like to add a couple of comments to their otherwise excellent installation procedures from MM. I would not recommend this install on your driveway! If you've done it, then you are the man! 1...

    Comfortable seats?

    For motorway miles I think I'd struggle to get more comfy than my stock leather seats. 30k miles a year and no aches and pains. Don't plan on auto-x-ing it, these seats work just fine in the 1/4. :D

    275 wide tires on stock 8" bullit rims.

    Falken 275/40 17's on the back, stuck with the 245's on the front. They look great, didn't affect the handling, and don't look like you've tried to shove a quart into a pint pot. Stock 01 1/2 GT bullit rims.

    4.10s and loudness

    There will be a difference in speed, but revs is revs. Surely the sound is the same at the same revs whatever the gear?
