  1. Good work! Now if only they made painter's tape in matching colors (or see thru) :D
  2. Thank you, Ford Probably don't even have the wiring harness in place for the SEL to have pwr pass seat.
  3. Anyone know how much power these things draw on initial startup? Wondering if issues are similar to fluorescent bulbs that also use ballasts, and have a higher-than-bulb-rating-draw on startup. Maybe a capacitor placed in series (could be built into ballast) would help in that instance.
  4. I wish the passenger side seat had power options. I have cloth interior, and sadly, no power passenger seat. I guess only available on leather interiors?
  5. It is the headlamp switch. You pull it out towards you to activate the fog lights and push back in to turn them back off.
  6. One-world coolant? From what I have heard about Dex-Cool, it is not good, at least in GM vehicles.

  7. I'd say definitely check the headlight unit, with the lights off, with a flashlight. May be something stuck to it or there's a hairline crack or something. Could be inside OR outside the unit. Bulb could have the defect too. If you look at the original pics you posted, the "finger" is highlighted, instead of shadowed in the later pic.
  8. Even if the fogs don't add any light, they look pretty darn good! Great pics. Did you tap into the existing lighting circuit, and how did you route the wiring?
  9. Haven't found any either. Tho someone had mentioned an EBay seller at one point, I think. Probably a one-off.
  10. ^ Tempted to say you are near a mine ... great setting!
  11. What year is the mustang? is that a custom grille on it?
  12. Nice job. It's all really come together!
  13. Welcome, from a non-Canuck! Love some pics :hyper:
  14. That's right about the same ranges for mine. I have 76K so far. I have come close to 21 mpg in 50/50. Maybe a tuneup or decarboning would help.
  15. This thread, among others on this forum, might be useful to you: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/2030-any-aftermarket-brake-pads/
  16. The only interval I have seen mentioned is 150K miles for the automatic transmission fluid. I would guess you would do the same for the rear differential. Normal duty conditions, of course. There is a thread on here how to do it for the 2007-2010 Edges: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/7926-rear-differential-fluid-change-procedure/ HTH.
  17. Found some 921 Creek-based LEDs on EBay. Similar to these, but from another seller: http://www.ebay.com/...b-/280993575923 Seem to be pretty bright, don't have a fair comparison with 921 incandescents, because those bulbs already had a lot of miles on them. The base did not sink in as deep as I would have liked, since the socket is quite tall comparatively speaking. Now to see about their longevity/durability in use. May replace other lights with LEDs, but they are more "continuous use" and I don't want to blind anyone behind me, stopping and turning, etc.
  18. Soon to be replaced by cameras and projector beams! Could we have a world without mirrors?
