Well, I finally got my parts from CFM. Pretty psyched to get these all in.



Here's a few before pics, will show after when I'm done.

I can't wait to see the after pic's. Should be pretty sweet once your all done.

:banger:

one question.....why did u get cluster in miles/hour???

Nice... those HVAC knobs look strikingly familiar but Ii couldn't tell if they had the Steeda logo on em ;) :P

nice knob. :ph34r:

you got 3 small holes under the RPM, i think one of them is cruise and the other one is for traction control. the new white in-lay doesnt have the cut outs. would you need to put the holes, or you are just gona forget about them?

I think they're there. If the cruise doesn't show, I'll know when cruise is on. I hate the shift light. Traction control is just a bitch light.

So yeah, I'll just forget them.

Just as an update, installed the knobs, the e-brake, and the short throw w/RS knob.

Would have finished everything last night if I didn't have a bitch of a time with the short throw.

Ford uses a NC thread screws to hold down the shifter, which is the most retarded thing to put back on (I eventually had to get my drill to finish the job).

As well, one of the shifter links were on super tight, took a hammer to it and got her loose.

Then I dropped the slot pin for the short throw twice. What an aggravating install that was. <_<

Didn't find any with Km/h. Not like it matters much. KM/h and MPH are a simple conversion.

100 K = 60 M
90 K = 55 M
50K = 30M

Installed Pics.






The brake pedal is off a slight. I screwed up a hole and gave up trying to re-align it.

I have only the gauge cluster to install, but can't seem to get the dash trim off. Anyone ever done this to an 07?

You'll have to unscrew the lower cover underneath the steering column to get the cluster surround off (which snaps on).

Cool. Thanks for the tip.

My wife might wanna borrow that ebrake handle :D

2 conditions, the handle doesn't leave the car and I get to watch. :lol:

I do like the look of the installed bits. The shifter w/knob and the pedles w/the AC knobs. All flow nicely together. Looks great man.

BTW looks good.

Its the little things that go a long way.

Did you have much of a problem installing the HVAC knobs, particularly the fan speed knob, mine won't sit quite flush. I feel if I push any harder, I'm going to push the knob pin right through the back. The other two went on no problem but I'm afraid to push any harder on the fan speed for fear of breakage.

just dremel down the post the knob slips onto a little. :)

Mine sits well, but I find the knob was machined a little too small (probably 1mm in diam). At night you can notice the white light around it.

i have, when i installed the bezel around the gauges. its pretty easy actually just becareful of all the stupid random wires that just appear out of no-where lol. but maybe that was just me, once you undo the one screw the dash pretty much just pops off. and yes 1 screw lol.
