But the Mustang dash is so, well, plasticky, for lack of a better term. The design is cool, but if I had to touch it on a daily basis *shudder*.


Now don't everyone get mad at me for saying this, but isn't our Bird dashes "Plasticky" also?? I know my center console sure is. I was going to pull it out....toss it.... custom make one that I like. Then again, I don't really want to do that either. 
I like the way the stang dash flows and how the console flows with it. And besides......they look killer in our cars  :evilgrin:

YaaaaHoooooo!! Got the approval from the finance manager!! She says that she likes the stang dash better than the original. So If anyone wants or need a good dash let me know. PM or email me.

That one hell of a project. Should look really cool when you're finished.

Dont forget to replace your heater core while the dash is out, you'll thank yourself later!

Point, our consoles are pretty bad. Not as bad as MN12 Bird's though! :hick: Our door panels are a LOT nicer, but you can keep those and have the Stang dash :D I have a question though, doesn't the passenger side glovebox area say "Mustang"?

And I went for lookey-see at the neighbors '01 and I remembered what rattled, all of the pieces around the shifter. He velcro'd his :hick:

Well its not so much the heater functionality as the puddles of coolant a bad core leaves on your floor :)

Hahah, I do!

You should've asked me that a couple weeks ago when a front came through and the temp dropped down to 38 at night! I forgot these fronts dont usually make it as far south as Houston....Lucky!
