Progress Thread 1990 Lx 5.0 Dark Titanium "one Last Ride"

A little side project that isn't directly part of this this thread, but it will make working on it easier. I've actually been doing some cleaning of the garage and making room since I got the car on the road. I finally pulled the trigger on more storage. I had the black Craftsman since the late 90's or early 2000's. It's been good but I didn't have enough room. The US General HF box was my choice years ago when a friend bought one. They're pretty nice for a homeowner shop.

Finally have an alignment appointment set up for next Tuesday. I ended up putting a bump steer kit on and put in the poly front spring isolators in as it still has the original rubber barely there. Rack boots were leaking so it was a good excuse to swap these out. Pics without the end links installed.

A picture showing some patches a guy did in another Mustang. Stopped to snap a picture of them. Looks like he blew off 2nd and 3rd gear.

Finally did the 92/92 dome light install. Not really a big deal, but much preferred and isn't completely a plug and play swap. I really wish I took some pictures, but this is what is needed:

Need to run a full time power source (I tapped off the sun visor mirror feed) to the dome light. This is for the two lights independent of the dome light. I first traced out the existing dome light mounts and cut a piece of sheet metal out. I notched for the rubber insulator (dome light) connection. As I mentioned in an early post, I used a power mirror plug that I cut off as this plug fits the dome light. Three wires come off but you only need two if done how I have. Cut the red wire as the one screw hole fits the same (dome light) and will screw into the rubber insulated connector so you will not need to wire this. The yellow wire from the plug taps into the 12+ feed (I used from sunvisor light wire). The ground just gets screwed to the sheet metal I put in and used a ring terminal to sandwich it between the dome light and the sheet metal. This attached by having to drill one new hole center of the dome light (with lens off!). Reason for this is there's brass plate that passes power under much of the dome light. There is already a hole here but just needs slightly enlarged. This hole that needs enlarged is next to the ford emblem on the bottom of the dome light in my picture below.

Took about 2 hours taking my time fabbing this up. The best part is you can put the original dome light in and it's 100% reversible. I am using a normal 90 headliner (TMI ABS backed) hence why I kept the forward map light. No cutting was required for this.
