Ever see these options before? April 30, 2012, 12:48:35 AM I cam across this console plate for 83/84 cars. Never saw a power remote mirror car with driver power seat and manual windows.........http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-FORD-1984-THUNDERBIRD-COUGAR-CONSOLE-FINISH-PANEL-/290636843742?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43ab4e4ade&vxp=mtr#ht_500wt_1180 Quote Selected
Ever see these options before? Reply #1 – April 30, 2012, 09:19:29 AM Yes, I've seen it before, but it's not common. Although a lot of the cars (most?) had power windows, remember that they were not standard on the base model Cougar or T-Bird, so it's possible to get odd combinations like this. Imagine if that car also had power locks! Quote Selected

Ever see these options before? Reply #3 – April 30, 2012, 01:25:27 PM that is an odd combo. I've got manual everything but mirrors but to throw in the power drivers seat is just odd. Quote Selected

Quote from: sarjxxx;388532They remember 3 presets of seat postions This is something that I have not heard of before and would love to have on my birds. I'm six four my wife is five two so we are constantly readjusting the seats. I'm going to guess that this is a rather rare option? Quote Selected
Ever see these options before? Reply #7 – May 02, 2012, 01:32:41 AM ,i hope not. I kinda tossed the seats. I kept the electronic bits underneath though. Quote Selected
Ever see these options before? Reply #8 – May 02, 2012, 09:50:37 AM I always thought the only cars to feature the memory seats were the 87 Anniversary Cougars. Quote Selected
Ever see these options before? Reply #9 – May 02, 2012, 10:52:02 AM I've never heard of memory seats in any other Fox Cougar/Thunderbird other than the 20th Anniversary Cougars.Anything is possible, but there is zero evidence in all of my books and experience to indicate otherwise.Power recline was a popular option...it had nothing to do with memory seating though.

This is disappointing. :( Would have been an awesome option for Ford to add to the already impressive list of options! Why take the time to design and engineer something for just one year for one car? lol.... Quote Selected
Ever see these options before? Reply #11 – May 02, 2012, 11:16:17 AM I dunno,I was just pulling the stock seats and saw this extra electronic piece on the bottom. It's just a long thin blue thing sandwiched between two pieces of metal. I dont remember seeing a switch anywhere for "memory seats", but that is what the tag said. Quote Selected

Ever see these options before? Reply #13 – May 02, 2012, 11:21:34 AM It was already an option for the Mark VII somewhere around 1986-87, so Ford just shifted the parts over to the Cougar. I imagine it wouldn't be terribly difficult to transfer things over to a Cougar or T-Bird. Just have to find a place to mount the switch. Quote Selected
