Default weird stuff Ford does..

If you take off the shifter bezel(the round thing surrounding the shifter) if you look in the back, there is a harness plugged into the bezel. which umm absolutly does nothing. Anyone know what its for?

My 99 v6 has traction control, the harness should be to the left, the lighter is to the right.

But its just funny how they go outta their way to make the little connection for nothing.... So if you get a switch off the GT would you be able to turn trac on/off? justa thought.

Another weird thing ford does is not put in a trunk button in the drivers seat for the 99-04's. You have to use your keys. I guess i can live with that, but its still weird, id i will never give up the search for the button!
