1) Door to window molding, how do you change it?
2) What weight gear lube goes in a T-5 (dumb question i know)
3) On my car, the previous owner put a saleen wing on it. For some reason, all of the wires going to the hatch are cut, do i need them? I assume one is defroster, another is brake light (but its empty), and the other two or three i have no idea.
4) Is there any place where i can get the wire clip that plugs into the Fog light/ headlight switch? For some reason it is broken
5) Can i get rid of my clutch safety switch, its kinda annoying sometimes?
6) Is is possible somehow make my 85mph speedo a 140mph w/ 3.73s? (Using the white face kit)
7) Really dumb question, is a 8.8" rear end a locker or limited slip?
8) Are the smoked tailights actually street legal? Do they light up red and white in rev.???
9) Is there anyway i can get rid of my stupid map light and fill the hole with something?
10) Why did ford have to make these F-Bodies w/ 4 lug patterns....that makes no sense. My '69 Mustang 6cyl had 4lugs
11) Hurst says they have a special thread pattern for their knobs, is it just metric or something?
12) Does anyone have a link where i can find a DYNO tester in Virginia? Around hampton, norfolk, virginia beach, suffolk? And how much should it cost?

Thanks for any help. Sorry for so many qs, i learned my '69 stang, now i g2 learn the '87.

Thanks again

1. don't rember
2. T-5 do not use gear lube. They use regular auto trans fluid.
3. would not worrie about them if the car drives be happy. ;-)
4. try here http://www.stangparts.com
5. yes you can but I do not recomond it. Have seen a car take off with out it. It is a saftey device on the car so it will not just take off while in gear.
6. Not sure on this but I don't think it will read right.
7. It is a limited slip
8. no on legal.
9. yes a custom upholstery shop can make you a new headliner
10. 1 f-bodys are Camaros and Firebirds. We have a fox body and I have no clue why they did that.

11. I think they just do it so you have to buy one of their knobs, stock one won't fit.

1. Its riveted to the door
Must drill out rivets and use new ones to reinstall.
2. By law you must have a third brake light on that year mustang
5. My local track will not let you race a car without a neutral saftey switch.
9. I wish i had one of those stock map lights
