Yes, 2011 does have MyColor.. i just looked at the instruction manual and it didn't even say if equiped... might be standard now? the extra 2 gauges are oil pressure and battery.. I don't think they are all that useful.. but i do like mycolor a lot. If you have MyColor then yes, you can change it to red. otherwise no. I rarely change my colors.. ive done red/blue/green the rest are harder to read I think.. I usually just leave it at blue... I like the red look but i had that for 7 years in my pontiacs.. so now i get to have something different.

buy mycolor cluster and install it... whats that cost like $500? On the first page the guy spent $587+$80 install with a $300 core-return so total cost of 367 isn't horrible.

Just to get red colored gauges it is... 2011s come with the information box working.. So mine already has miles to E and everything already in it... I feel like changing the LEDs would be much more "cost" effective... After all I only have so much money..

'Cos you bought the 300A package! You have to buy the leather seats trim to get MyColor!
(I'm in the same boat as you, I bought the 300A GT but down the way, I plan on getting the GT Premium gauge cluster set with MyColor and installed in mine too.)

$500, +install fee, less core trade-in fee, if it is installed by the Ford service departments, will it still be covered by the warranties?

If nobody knows here on MF, I guess I will ask the dealer tomorrow.

Well 2011 should come standard, but i HIGHLY doubt it. The cluster that comes with my color is like 300-400$ with a 300$ Core charge. you have to buy it with your miles on it, AND you might have to get it flashed so it wont get any errors in your car.

PLUS, you have to check behind the fake buttons, near the cigerette lighter, and see if you have the wires that will allow you to.

Okay! i got it! Im ganna attempt to change the LEDs behind the gauges. I'm a pro when it comes to soldering. I've done it several times on xbox 360's, changing the green light in the front to red or purple. those lights are like grain sized Wonder how it would be for the cluster....

Worst case, if i ruin it ill have to buy the my color crap. but what sucks about my color is that it wont change the WHOLE dash. only the gauges. your radio/ A/c will still be green.
