Shifter Bezel Installation

[RedStallion43]

Hey I searched around for this but came up empty handed, I was thinking of getting a billet shifter bezel but I was worried how it installs, I have an AOD, do they drill into the stock shifter bezel or do they snap into place. I see screws in the bezel but none on my stock bezel so where do these go? Thanks

I was wondering that too, and i just assumed that you screwed holes in the existing bezel.

i think you're right--from the looks of it, if the rivets/screws are real, you'll probably have to drill some small holes. no big deal.

I think that they screw in. If you don't want to do this the Bullit trim ring from ford just snaps in. I have one of the bullit ones in my car and I love it. Only problem is if you want the billet look the bullit ring is only silver plastic.

Really? SO the wholes are just for looks on the OEM bullit? May I ask where you got yours from, i havent seen them. Thanks for the replys

yeah, tom, is your trim ring the exact same one off the Bullitt GT? get it straight from ford? how much?

Yeah the real billet ones do screw in. I just placed mine on the bezel, lined it up, marked the holes with a sharpie and then drilled them out. No big deal.

I bought a bullit one and it snapped in. It was an actually ford part and I bought it off ebay for about $60 but I think you can get them cheaper now days. Just to clarify to everyone I am talking about the BULLIT MUSTANG not Billet Aluminum.

Hmm, any pics?

My Steeda bezel just slides on no screw no clips no nothing, really nice piece

I don't have any pics. With black interior and being in the garage the pics would come out too dark. Tried it already. Maybe crappy dig. camera.
