So something cool you could do is buy the S197 II K-member to be able to install the EPAS (electronic power steering) and get some more horses as well as mpg!
Homelink would be killer!!! I think it will, but you’d have to somehow figure out how to wire it all up… shouldn’t be too hard. just gotta order a headliner wiring kit. if you do that, you’d mind as well buy the newer map light too… it’s not much different, unless you could figure out how to use...
haha. it’s so frustrating, the little issues end up making you look all around at all the possible different problems with the car, yet it’s something right there with your own wiring :rolleyes:
Alright! I’ve done some minor changes to my 2007 S197 v6, but there are a couple things that I am extremely interested in, and haven’t seen many ideas/information about them:
First!! For ANY professionals with gauge clusters, i’ve got a big question for you! How difficult would it really be to...
i haven’t seen the specific type. i’d love to know the proper color (i know ford calls it “ice blue”, but i can’t seem to find the actual LED’s as i would like to change out all the lighting in my car with them :/
forgot to update you! it ended up working, guess i had a wire in the way. i plan to make a new post on this forum relatively soon asking some more strange questions and hoping for answers :)
Gotcha… I haven’t wanted to mess with the airbag with the battery connected. too nervous that something bad’ll happen - aka BOOM! i’ll definitely try that today at some point, sounds like it’ll work.
I don’t know the part number, unfortunately. My horn is having issues (doesn’t work at all), and i’ve been trying to figure out if it’s the u plate you’re mentioning, or something else… tear :(
Ohh, one of those. I don’t really need a guide, I just figured i’d throw that one in there just in case anyone had some head unit that was weird and needed the PAC, haha. :D
Hm, interesting about not needing the PAC. Every time I’ve watched tutorials on YouTube or read articles, they require a PAC except for the Dynavin head unit (and a few others with similar installation requirements/wiring) Good to know, and thank you!
Thanks so much buddy! I didn’t do this alone, I did use a couple of other tutorials out there! I think we should start revising some of these old tutorials and making them new and better again, I think it’ll benefit the new users tenfold, to be honest. Thank you!
