Be aware that the picture shows the factory kit installed ... the retrofit kit they are selling does not look like that ... especially the cup holder and the button .... definitely misleading advertising.


Real description:

THIS GENUINE FORD ACCESSORY KIT IS SIMILAR TO THE 2008 AMBIENT LIGHTING OPTION AS IN THE 2008 MUSTANG. THE KEY DIFFERENCE IS YOU MUST DRILL A HOLE FOR A ROUND SWITCH IN YOUR EXISTING CONSOLE. THE KIT USES ONE LED IN THE FRONT CUPHOLDER VS THE RING IN THE FACTORY SETUP. THE FACTORY HAS FOUR FOOTWELL LAMPS FRONT AND BACK AND THE ACCESSORY KIT USES TWO IN THE FRONT ONLY.

i really like the ambient lighting setup, to bad its so much $$$. ive already started my own project like that with 10 in led flex strips in the footwells and a 5 in led strip on the back glass up by the headliner for a rear seat dome light about $30 for all of it and 1 hour install time

i see a lot of pictures with half the cluster red and the other half blue....is that adjustable on the GT500 cluster, or is it like that all the time?
