2003 Ford Mustang Cobra. Exceptional example of a very clean, lightly used Terminator. I bought this car new in August of 2003, and it served as a daily driver during the warmer months. It was stored each winter, and garaged year 'round for the last 4 years. No scratches, dings, dents, etc. Yes...

Well guys, life got in the way for awhile, and my '03 has gone from Summertime daily driver to garage ornament. It's been stored every winter. Now, since Dad's passing, I have another car I drive everyday and I'm thinking it might be time to sell the Cobra. It's not because it's a bad car or...

Okay guys...need some direction. My TOB was shot at about 35,000 miles. When the tech and I discussed replacement (my garage is not built yet) he recommended a new clutch, pressure plate, TOB all at the same time. Made sense to me. When the trans was pulled, it was noticed that the TOB was...

As some of you may remember, I had a TOB problem..and when the clutch was replaced we wound up with a vibration. The ship that did the work is first class, and when they took the trans down again they found that the sleeve over the input shaft was "loose". Some homework ensued, and it...

Hey guys.. My wife got me a Sirius Starmate4 for our anniversary. I obviously want to install in both my '03 Cobra and the '05 Excursion. These newer Sirius units do not do the FM modulation thing very well, and they suggest installing this stupid wire antenna on the windshield...or...

Since new, I thought my '03 had a very heavy clutch...more like my former 1970 440 4 speed Mopar. I also have a 2000 Viper that has the same trans, albeit with a hydraulic clutch. The TOB has been making a racket now for 6 months, so I bit the bullet and got it all done, clutch, pressure...

...the leather is coming off mine and I'd like to get a new one. Dealer says $68!! Anyone have a take-off they like to part with? Mine's just starting to go so I'd want one that is like new.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that it should be done at 30,000. Other than a K&N FIPK, my '03 is stock. I searched both this site and on-line, but could not find an answer. Thanks!

I have finally tracked down the really annoying rattle in the Cobra. When the passenger door window is all the way down...it rattles badly on some bumps. When up..it's quiet. There are window guides that could be moved, but if I adjust them out to better retain the window when down...the...

Hi gang....I have a metal sounding rattle...like a Maglite left in the car kind of noise that seems to come from the rear passenger area seat. In only happens on fairly sharp bumps. I cannot find anything loose in the car...and I have been through it. I was wondering if a loose shock or...

I saw on another post that you can use the convertible top switch (in a coupe) for other things. I'd like to do that, but was wondering if anyone knew how this would work. Meaning, is it a momentary switch..and if so, how could it be used for turning on an accessory, for example. I'd love to...

Hi guys..I have been noticing since the weather has gotten better that I have a noise that almost sounds like a cross between a metallic whistling and crickets while cruising. It does not always do it, but when it does, very slight pressure on the clutch pedal makes it go away. I seem to...

Does anyone know the whereabouts and colors of the wiring that feeds the "theft" light on the dash? Thanks!

Hi guys....I really wanted one of these concealed displays installed in the Cobra, but did not want it simply taped to the top of the dash. I removed the casing from the unit, and installed it as shown. The only downside is that it is not as visible as I'd like when the car is in 5th...

Hi guys....let me start at the beginning. When my Cobra had about 4000 miles it started the stalling thing. Ya know, coasting with the clutch in...it shuts off. Sometimes at very bad times. The car was about 8 months old and the dealer re-flashed the computer. The car still stalled. I...

Hi guys. It looks like the clearcoat is failing n my trunk spoiler. It has a million tiny scratches that run front to back. FWIW, the car is silver. I'm sure it's under warranty, but it's just another thing to deal with. I'd be the supplier making the wings is not putting enough paint on...

Hi guys...over the weekend I searched for this at home...with a painfully slow dial-up, so if this is a repeat, I'm sorry. Despite having the TSB done several times for the rear noise when going over speed bumps, etc...I am still a bit unsure as to which bolts exactly need to be changed...

I am wondering if anyone knows if there are switches from another Ford vehicle that would fit our cars? I would really like to have lit door lock and window switches like my Excursion.

Hi guys! This may help someone. Just had a trip in to the dealer to get ny stall fixed. Some of you may remember that my car started stalling about a year ago and had a reflash. The problem over time worsened and a flight recorder was installed. It was decided that the IAC (idle air...

Hi guys. Removed my wheels today for a tire rotation and good cleaning. I always clean the back side when I wash the car but wanted to be more thorough. On two of the wheels, the bolt hole areas where the lugs go are corroding under the argent paint. One of these wheels also has some of...

My '03 has been in once and had the computer re-flashed...last Spring. This Spring they did some other fixes that "had fixed every other Cobra stalling problem" but the car stalled twice today. They are talking about putting a flight recorder in the car, but I was hoping someone here has...

I have looked and looked through the site but cannot find the pages that talked about this...it was quite some time ago. I installed 9005s in the fogs on my '05 Excusrsion..and wow what a difference. I installed the fogs myself (factory lights) and see no problem with wiring, heat etc since...

Okay folks...this is BIG news to me. I found a company that makes power antennas for 1999-2004 'stangs. One of their distributors is literally across the street from where I work. I'll have to go over and get some pricing. I talked to tech support and they verified that these do...

Wow...the whine from the Eaton is more pronounced, and on my stock boost guage, it's going almost to 10...just a hair shy. Never saw it go that far before. Not a terrible install, and yes...(lowering head) I did drill the hole. The connector on the MAF tube (not the MAF wires..the other one)...
