Default Rocker Panels

I just changed the rocker panels on my pony and thought I would post the part no. for the push connectors. These are the Ford part no. Per rocker panel 1x W70988-S300 , 7x W710528-S300 and 8x W710532-S300

Hi

I'm not sure where these number quoted go. Per the Ford schematic, there are 8 (x2) required for the underside and 2 (x2) for the front end (different type). Where are those you are quoting go? I should put mine this weekend.

The front pins seems OK to undo without breaking. The ones under (8) seems impossible without breaking. Is that what you experienced?

You can refer to the schematic http://www.2005stang.com/gallery/alb...er%20panel.pdf

gtcs1 your dead on. The ones at the end in the front fender are reusable with no problem. The 8 on the bottom W710532-S300 are a use one time connector. They are soft so I used a pair of needle nose pliers to mash the round head flat and get the slot in the panel to pull over the head of the connector. There are 8 more connectors inside that your drawing does not show. One big one at the front W70988-S300 and 7 more that run close to the top W710528-S300 , they have a square base and are white. The panels pull off easy, start at the back and pull hard. I found that alot of the white connectors were reusable. Hope this helps , painted rockers sure change the look. My dealer charged $31 for both sides. But everything is high in Dallas.
