Default Taking the plunge



Sadly that was my stang two weeks ago. I ran it straight into a Ram 1500's trailer hitch in L.A. rush hour but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I've decided to take the plunge and do a GT500 conversion. I did have a question about the harness modification though. What exactly do you have to do, just make the fog light wires longer to reach to the lower GT500 fogs?

Also if someone has the part number for the OEM GT500 heat extractor hood that would be awsome. Thanks!

They have a pigtail that connect to the GT500 fog light and will allow the GT harness to plug right in.
Unfortunatly, that part is in back order and the dealer can't even tell me when they will be available.
I ain't waiting, so I'll rig up some female connectors (from radio shack etc...)that will plug to the sockets. Do the same at the other end.
They're tiny, like speaker wire. See picture...

LMAO I am 100% with you, not to say they don't look good but damn there are soooo many! How about a Cervini's front end and hood?
