I still need a new Door locking switch for the drivers side and I'll replace the lights on that and then install, as I have a bad connection.... it'll work if I wiggle the unit but goes on and off..... so I'll just start again on that one!

I'll take a pic with my wide angle lens this evening if I get a chance and there is no more bloody snow!!


EDIT: So got a photo



I'm really happy, the color match is exact! It looks brighter because of the camera but it is no brighter than the speedo display!
looks really amazing! Love the accuracy of the color. Where did you purchase your replacement leds?

Anybody near the Oklahoma area or surrounding states who could do this for me? I've never soldered or changed things on a circuit board before :/ I would pay to get this done.

I have an '05 GT. Which I believe is one of the early ones. The "My Color" works on mine, but I rarely toy with it. Its likely been years since last time. It also has the ability to roll down the windows if press the open twice and hold it down.

On "My Color" I think I recall that there was an issue with it, as in Ford wasn't supposed to have it, use it, patent things or something. I've always recalled that as true.

Can anyone say true or not true?

The inventor had a patent in '99-ish & sued, but reached an agreement with Ford so they could use it on the 2005+ models
