I know very little about the radiator system in cars, but it would appear my car is leaking coolant. I noticed my heater wasn't heating my car so I checked the reservoir and the fluid level was at the bottom. I topped the car off, but the the engine wasn't 100% cool, however it had probably been...

I was in DC over the weekend (parked on a well lit highly visible road) and some goober broke into my driver side window to steal an old backpack full of clothes I was going to donate. I'm normally wary of buying off Amazon, but they are the only windows I see for sale online. Are they a good...

Howdy folks. I finally installed the new subs in my doors. The only issue being that I had to cut the enclosure to make them fit. What must I do to reseal the enclosure. Also, will issues will I run into if I don't? I have a high and low pass filter going into to the sub if that makes a difference

How do the stock door subs amp work? There are 4 output wires per amp that are the hot and ground for each subs coil, but how do the 6 output wires work? If I had to guess 4 of then correspond to the 4 inputs and the other 2 are the power and ground to the amp. But then this leaves the question...

Howdy fellas, I have a kicker 200.4 that requires a 20A fuse amd a 500.1 that requires a 60A fuse. My plan is to run a 4 guage wire to a fuse, then run that to a distributor that splits into two 8 guage wires. What fuse size would I need? Also, an alternative is run the distributor first, then...

Howdy fellas, I just did a swap from a 4 to 6 guage cluster on my 07 v6, and was wondering if it would possible to drill through the outer "buttons" on the placeholder button cluster, screw into the holes, and yank it out. In short, is there anything holding the buttons in place other than...

Howdy fellas, I bought American Muscles Alterum leather door inserts set as well as a chrome trim ring and now that I've got the job figured out it looks to be outside my skill level. Given I already have the door panel off and have the materials on hand, how much do you think I could expect...

Howdy, I'm looking at getting a smart mirror put in my car; ideally one that simply turns on when I'm in reverse and has a compass and thermometer overlay at any other times. Is there something on the market for me? The only one's I can find are either too complicated or don't fit my constraints.

Howdy. I recently upgraded from the 4 cluster dash to a 6 cluster dash and that got me thinking I should probably come up with a to-do list for interior upgrades that I could do as a break between hardcore technical stuff, so I was thinking I could get some advice from some of you that have...

Howdy folks, I bought a set of Kicker Key 200.4 and 500.1 amplifiers and a set of Pioneer TSA2000LD2 subwoofers. What parts do I need to install? I'm assuming a heat gun to remold the plastic around the wider base subwoofers, some sorts of fuses (how do I figure out the specific size?)...

Where can I find white guage faces for a v6 cluster? So that when I turn the backlight on, the white parts illuminate and the numbers stay the same

I'm looking to put an analog dash clock between the center AC vents of my 07. What are my options? I was looking at the Scott Drake 67-68 repro, but I'm sure some of you guys know better options out there.

How much road noise can I expect to get reduced from replacing my old tires with new ones? The ones on there now were there when I bought it used back in January. I'm hearing considerably higher rear wheel road noise than my friends S197 of the same year, only difference being he has the pony...

I'm about to replace my door subs with Pioneer shallow mount 8's. The pioneers are 250w RMS and have 83 dB. Currently I run that stock subs at -12 dB from the head unit. Will the stock amp's be loud enough to run the aftermarket subs at decent volume given that I use the stock speakers at...

Hey fellas, My 07 has a lot of noise coming from the back axle. Not red flag levels of noise, but a decent amount louder than my buddy's 06. I'm assuming this noise is due the age as the car has 130k on it. I've put a new sound system in the car so the next play is to reduce road noise. Right...

Howdy fellas, I've got an upgraded head unit and speaker system, the only thing left to work with is the door "subs" and their amps. I've heard the Shelby/Kicker replacement is considerably better than the stock units, even with the stock speakers, but they are both about half as loud as the...

Howdy, I've got a S197 that formerly had a Shaker 500 system. Now it has a new Pioneer head, new front and rear midrange drivers, and an audio processor. My question is what should I do with the door subs? Right now they are too boomy and I have to cut their output -7dB and set the crossover...

Howdy fellas, I have a base 07 S197. Since the car doesn't have ABS or TCS, I was looking at wider rims, specifically in the rear, to get more traction. My current wheels are 16" × 7", and they aren't cutting it. I've heard 18" × 10" is the way to go, but I don't want to fiddle with modding...

Forgive me if this is in the wrong subforum, but my Mustang just did something weird. I pulled up on the handbrake to park, and as soon as it reached the last click it made a sort of a snapping sound. The handbrake appears to work as it should, both engaged and disengaged, but it is now...

Good evening, I have a 2007 Mustang that died on me. Before it died the battery warning light would turn on on occasion for a few seconds. The first sign of real trouble before it broke was the turn signals not signaling and the dials not turning green when I turned the headlights on. I pulled...

Hey, I have a 2007 S197 with the 500 sound system. I find its time to replace it. From what I understand the 500 powers the 6x8's and the door 8's are powered by their own 2 amps in the passenger kick panel. My question is, what wattage does the head unit provide to the 6x8's? The replacement...

Howdy folks, I'm new to the car modding world, its never really been in the cards to put money towards improving a car until now, but I'd like to know your thoughts on what the basic, fundamental mods for a 07 S197 are. Currently I'm more focused on ideas for the interior, but sometime after...
