    Black housing lights or clears... laser red

    Dstang01, if you wanted to you could mask off the turn signals and paint the area that is white with 'krylon for plastic' in black. Clean it off with alcohol before spraying. I did this about 3 yrs. ago on mine, it still looks good.

    Does anyone have Magnum 500 rims on their stang?

    DGR, thanks for the link. That's the company I had seen before that sells them. If you look at another part of that site, they have the steel version of them in 15" x 7" for $180. Still have to see them on a 94-98 before I'd buy them.

    Does anyone have Magnum 500 rims on their stang?

    I don't know whether they would look good or not, that's why I was asking if anyone had done it already.(so I wouldn't have to spend MY money to find out!:D) As far as being an old-style rim, you do see bullitts (which I have on my car now) on almost all years of mustangs and they have been...

    Does anyone have Magnum 500 rims on their stang?

    Upon further reading, a 15" x 7" Magnum 500 rim has 4.25" backspacing and is an inch narrower, which if I am figuring right would make it stick out .5" further than a 17" x 8", which seems manageable. I am tempted to order one 15" x 7" to make sure it would fit, and return it if it didn't. I...

    Does anyone have Magnum 500 rims on their stang?

    In looking at the backspacing, a 17"x 8" rim has 5.72" backspace while a 15"x 8" rim only has 4.5" backspace. So they wouldn't fit, or would they just stick out 1.25" further? I'm not really savvy on this kinda thing.

    Does anyone have Magnum 500 rims on their stang?

    I've got this vision in my head about what my white '95 GT vert would look like with 15" Magnum 500 rims and white letter tires. I'm an older guy, and had several cars over the years ('65 Fairlane 500 vert, '65 Dodge Coronet 500, '68 Dodge Charger R/T, '73 Dodge Charger S/E) with this...

    How do I disable my trunk-opening button in glove compartment?

    Thanks!!:nice: That was simple. That link helped a lot so I could tell what the back of the button looked like, you can't really see it by looking in the glove compartment. Glen

    How do I disable my trunk-opening button in glove compartment?

    I would like to disable my trunk-opening button in my '95 GT vert. I never use it to open the trunk, and I sometimes lock my laptop in there when I run into a store or something rather than leave it where someone can see it. Is there a plug I can disconnect or a fuse I can pull? I don't want to...

    Quick fog light question

    Definately fit '95's. I just got a pair, sealed them up, and I just took out the two screws from beneath the originals. Pulled out the old ones, put in the new ones-literally a 5 minute job!:nice: They put out so much more light. I'm using Silverstar bulbs.

    Looking for Winter Project Ideas

    Dual cupholders out of a '98 stang? Not the best but one of the most-useful mod I've done. Got them off eBay.

    Southern California vert owners, please read.

    It's that time, my '95 GT verts original top is starting to look like swiss cheese. If you had your top replaced, which shop did you go to and what was the approximate cost? Any references would be appreciated. I'm located in Huntington Beach but willing to travel a bit for a good deal. Thanks:)

    Convertible top cylinder question

    About a year ago, one of my convertible top cylinder/pistons cracked and started leaking fluid, making opening and closing the top with the button impossible. I disconnected the hydraulic line from the pump and drained the fluid, so that I could put the top up and down by hand. I recently...

    Question about gears

    I went from 2.73's to 4.10's on my '95 with AODE. It really feels like this is what the car should have come with from the factory. I don't commute much on the freeway, but I recently traveled 800 miles on the freeway on vacation, at 75mph with the cruise control on the whole time, and got over...

    MACH 460-AM/FM CASSETTE TO CD HARNESS?

    I have a 1995 Mustang GT vert that came with the Mach 460 am/fm cassette. I recently purchased a Mach 460 am/fm cassette w/the slave cd unit below it from another 1995 Mustang GT. I ordered a OEM wiring harness that was supposed to connect the Mach 460 head unit with the slave cd unit off...

    Trans Woes...

    The additive I used to get rid of my shudder was called "Dr. Tranny instant shudder fix". Comes in a red tube, it really works! Not associated with the company in any way, just letting you know what worked for me.

    guys with 4.10s get in here

    I went to 4:10's from my stock 2:73's. My car is a stock aode DD, my commute is 30 miles a day, 28 miles street and 2 miles freeway. I changed my gears about 3 years ago, and I haven't noticed any difference in mpg. Unlike a lot of others here, I don't really race or drive my car hard often...

    275/40/17 front and 315/35/17 rear: What mods are needed?

    I would just remove the quad-shocks, go get your new tires/rims, and drive home. The areas where my car rubbed weren't sharp or jagged(nothing that would damage the tire) and only made contact when going in or out of a parking lot. My stock exhaust cleared both tires with a 1/2" to spare. When...

    275/40/17 front and 315/35/17 rear: What mods are needed?

    I don't know about the fronts, but I had to remove the quad shocks and massage inside the rear wheelwell with a big hammer when I put my 315 35 17 Sumitomos on. They were rubbing in several places. Car is not lowered. I didn't need to roll the fenders though, and I just took the hammer to the...
