    Progress Thread Convertible Top Swap

    I'm pretty sure that the 94-04 convertibles all use the same top, but the Cobras used a better material.

    Door Panel Carpet Replacement

    No, I love the look and the color (and it matches the stripes in the Mach 1 seats too :D), but it just looked pretty crappy in person. It was very uneven and the unfinished edges were way too visible. I tried using rubber windows screen spline to fill the gap and it actually looked pretty good...

    Door Panel Carpet Replacement

    I just used the carpet as a pattern to cut the fabric and then glued it on with 3M spray adhesive. But it didn't look very good, there needs to be some sort of backing between the material and the uneven surface of the door. Plus the gap around the fabric is way too large and needs to be filled...

    Door Panel Carpet Replacement

    like this? Unfortunately while it looks OK in pictures it wasn't great in person and I'm still trying to work out a way to do it right. :-/

    Good All Around Tire That Won't Break The Bank.

    BF Goodrich tires have been popular tires for decades ;) they run about $120.00 for most sizes that SN95s use.

    Good All Around Tire That Won't Break The Bank.

    I've been real happy with BFG's, they aren't the cheapest but they aren't real expensive either and they work great.

    Help With Deciding Which Headlights......led, Hid, Projector

    Have some consideration for the drivers you might be behind someday and DON'T get HIDs unless you get a retro fit kit...there is nothing worse than having some joker behind you with crappy DIY HIDs blasting light everywhere but the road ahead of him... And make sure and re-seals the seems with...

    Convertible Top Boot

    my understanding is that the early cover WILL work on the later SN95s....unfortunately I have never been able to find one :(

    Mach 460 Amplifier & Speakers

    Are you are a super tight budget or something, 'cause I get that. But for the amount of work it takes to troubleshoot and repair a 15yo Mach 460 system (which wasn't all that great to begin with) it makes a lot more sense to just replace the stuff with more modern components...

    Mach 460 Amplifier & Speakers

    maybe the 'verts are different, but my 2000GT with a Mach 460 definitely has 2 big amps behind the back seat under the well liner, one on either side of the top pump. <shrug> I re-used the amp(s) with both the aftermarket head units I've had in the car too.

    Need A Little Advice/direction

    the Shaker is a CAI...why not just get a K&N filter and an eBay or whatever intake pipe and call it a day?

    Mach 460 Amplifier & Speakers

    If it is anything like mine it is probably just getting old and worn out. My rear speakers are pretty flaky now and I suspect it's finally time to just pull out everything and replace it all.

    Wrong Size Rims What Size Should I Use?

    It would have been helpful to see them on the car ;) Nevertheless I'm pretty sure those are '05 and newer wheels and they have the wrong offset to work correctly on SN95s...

    Wrong Size Rims What Size Should I Use?

    Maybe the problem isn't the size, but the offset? I'm guessing that maybe you have 2005+ wheels, and while they will bolt up to a 94-04 Mustang, the offset it way wrong and you need at least a 1", maybe a 1 1/4" spacer to make them work (and look) almost right. The correct solution is getting...

    Hurst Shifter Help?!?!? 99-04

    I was thinking about moving to this shifter handle to get an old school-ish look that's compatible with the stock style boot and bezel. Steeda Billet Pro Street Mustang Shifter Handle w/ White Knob 555-7157 (79-10 All) - Free Shipping

    Hurst Shifter Help?!?!? 99-04

    I cut up a bezel to fit the rectangular boot. The problem is the pivot point for the shifter is so much lower than the base of the boot there isn't enough movement/flex in the boot to work well in this application. In the picture you can see the boot is almost completely compressed at the rear...
