The reason why this forum has lasted as long as it has (and, let's be honest, it's well beyond its usefulness, like so many Stang/motorcycle other forums I still belong to) is due to people like Rick, macman45. While other social media sites, like FB, can be effective, they'll never match sites like these, where members hang on for years, decades even, sharing info and helping each other out. Rick is one of those guys. Matter of fact, I sold Rick a pair of OE Bullitt mufflers a couple years so we had 'history.'
Out of the graciousness of his own heart, he reached out to me privately and offered to use his knowledge, technical expertise and skills to fix my tail lights. He didn't ask for anything other than to pay the shipping costs, which, of course, I did w/out hesitation.
I shipped him the lights and he returned them in under a week. He found a number of issues, fixed them all, and the lights work perfectly again. I've thanked him repeatedly in private fashion but let me do so in public fashion- THANK YOU, Ricky. You saved me a lot of $$ from buying a new set of lights.
Hats off to macman45!
