Well the postal service droped of two packages today!! YAY Im excited, I got the flasher to my truck (hoping that will correct the LED issues in it) and the set of keys I got off ebay that were said to fit the ignition of my car, I tested and looks like minor modding may be needed, but oh well, I will figure out something!! anyways heres the pics!

ok did a bit more work today with the car, and got quite abit done too!! I installed a new (green) dome light that is LED (i got two, one for the truck also), the festoon bulb that was there stopped working today so that was a well timed for its death, also got a set of 6 LEDs 6000K white for the map lights for both the truck and Mustang (hey I need to show the truck some love too...), decided that since the truck sisn't want to behave and work the LEDs in the STT lamps I would swap them over to the mustang which I did (pics below) and then while I was at it decided to swap the back up bulbs in as well since I had every thing torn open (why do it twice when I can do it once and be done??)

the map light install will be coming once I fine a replacement dome light to replace the broken/not so great working one in the mustang (yes I could swap the one out of my truck but that is a saddle brown colour and would look out of place) but it is the same type of dome light which is nice (thanks Ford)

pics of the green dome lamp (all I got to say is WOW its brighter then I thought!)

also completed the works package today on the car, got tyres rotated, fluids checked, oil checked and a safety inspection all for a whopping $22 today, only thing really needing work right now is the ball joints, can anyone tell me how hard those are to replace, or if it would be better to have a shop do the work or get it done by the local Ford dealer?)
