Default Can I upgrade to interior upgrade after purchase?

I just bought a 07 GT with only the middle upgrade package, but have since decided I would like the MyColor gauges and message center. Can I purchase that through Ford and have it installed at the dealership or does it have to be done from the factory? Does it matter that I currently don't have the extra two gauges?

But it can be done once I decide to go though with it, despit the fact that I don't have all of the gauges currently that would be in that package? Estimate of what hat fortune is? I really only what the MyColor g with extra gauges and the message center with controls, no need for the dash pieces, etc. Can those be bought seperatly and switched out with the basic I have?

do a search in the 4.0 section.

a number of people have done this upgrade and there
are instructions on how to do it yourself.

it's not expensive

yeah, you wanna talk with Ed, search the forums for the "mycolor" and you'll find the thread with the correct link to his site. the cost is about 310.00 (shipping included) plus a 300.00 core charge. you'll need to know your vin and your build date (on the sticker in your door jamb) also pop off the dummy switches that are above and to the left of the radio, you need to make sure theres wires/plug stuck to the back of them. the switch pops straight out, just use a flathead screwdriver to remove but be carefull not to scratch the dash!

WOW, There is quick help here! So, if there are no plugs there, it can't be done?

Themycolor gauages will not work if you do not have the plug.

OK, I tried to find the topic but couldn't, someone have a link?

I popped the cover off and there IS a plug attached to the back of it. Are there any other special stuff that I have to make sure are there, like behind the gauges themselves? Even though I don't have the battery and oil needle currently, there is something to hook thrm to with the new upgrade gauge cluster?
