Default Just got My Color dash installed!

I just got my stang back from the dealership with my new My Color dash installed. Thanks to afixer for the instructions and Ed Olson from Y2K Ford in Seattle WA for setting me up with the parts. With parts shipping and installation it cost $388. Now I can say I have my dash set to violet [sm=happybounce.gif]

My car was already wired for the buttons. I pryed of the fake one that came with the car and there they were.

The dash is an actual Ford part, not aftermarket.

Yeah I seen that but it didnt have the IUP button or a part number for it. Is that all you needed was the cluster and IUP button?

Pull off the false panel to the left of the cigarette lighter. If it has a wiring harness attached to the back of it, your good to go.

As far as a self install, I dont think that is possible, unless you work for Ford of course and have access to the tools.

Check out this link: A lot of info here.
