install new lights on door mirror
Brock79 replied to Ari Kalendarov's topic in Accessories & Modifications
The first me you listed has been bought by several people on here, yes it fits the 2013 model as well. The guy that sells them is actually a me,her on here, I believe it is kc300. I have them in my Edge, they fit good and light output is great compared to the stock lights. -
Here's an interesting ambient lighting problem...

shouldnt be a hard fix, if they are like the RGB LEDs I run n my reef tanks. I had this happen to two of the pucks, it was just a loose wire. -
Ford PremiumCare ESP and Premium Maintenance Plans
Brock79 replied to wlepse's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
When I bought my Edge I had a 2 year service plan thrown in as well as the 5 year 100k mile warranty. I have my oil changed at 5k miles and the Dealership hasn't said anything about it, they take it in and I'm done. My Edge has 16k miles now, I have had for almost a year. I received a letter from ford a few months ago about the MFT and SYNC stating they are now covered for the life of the vehicle, I got the same letter for my SHO as well. So far in my 2 year service plan I have had the oil changes, the replaced the cabin filter and all three windshield wipers as well. I asked about the rear wiper and they said don't worry it's covered under the plan and we will replace all three. I didn't know this when I got the plan, but it was thrown in with the extended warranty. -
A TB by itself won't do anything for your Edge in power or fuel economy. For that to work properly you would need to do the CAI and exhaust as well. The TB can pull in more air with the stock air filter as that is only at so many CFM and the TB is rated for more. The exhaust can't push out more CFM either in stock form. I think the power you are feeling is in your head. Don't take that the wrong way, it wasn't meant to be an insult. The TB upgrade is a common mod people do to Mustangs and other sports cars, but you need to upgrade everything to see results.

Living in NJ I average around 21 MPG. But traffic here is not really the same as most other parts of the US. I did get 31 MPG on a road trip to Myrtle Beach. That was with 3 people and a full cargo area, two fill ups for a 660 plus mile trip. I did have gas left in the tank when I got there. My highway average near me is more around 25-26 MPG but you can rarely go more than a mile in NJ before hitting some kind of traffic.

Years ago back in 98 I had a mustang of mine get totaled. The car was parked but got hit by a tractor trailer that jumped a curb, it took the engine out of the car. A few years later I decided to run the VIN just out of curiously to see what carfax would say. It showed the car registered in a near by town with no damage history at all. My insurance paid a full claim out to me for that car, I will never trust carfax or auto body shops.

How sturdy do they feel? My GF has trouble getting in and out of the Edge, but I have felt some of the other plastic ones out there and they a Ways felt soft.

How to install Ecoboost Side Skirts/Rocker Panels
Brock79 replied to vt4278's topic in Exterior & Body
After looking at them they definitely are different. -
Since others chimed in, I went from NJ to Myrtly Beach last summer. My Ecoboost was giving me 33 mpg according to the computer at 70 MPH anything over that speed the MPG drop drastically. I averaged 28 MPG for the whole 660 plus mile trip one way. It took two tanks each way. I would have had better overall MPG but driving from NJ to Washington DC there was more stop an go traffic.

I saw the turbo V6 mustang with the 3.7, after the exhaust, tune and CAI it was beating stock GT times.

i bought the SHO for the reasons you named as well as the fact I could throw a few dollars at it and Make it just as fast as any higher model camaro, mustang or even base corvettes and other vehicles in the category. People that know what a SHO is already know they are quick 4 door cars. But it really surprises people when you blow by them and they can't catch up. I kind of like that feeling, you might not understand if you are thinking only mustangs and cars like that should be bought to go fast. I looked at the Cadillac CTS-V but couldn't justify spending 70 grand on it. By they way you can even buy that in a station wagon body and blow the doors off a lot of cars out there. I think you need to stop being so narrow minded, also what kind of times are you running in your Cobra? Who built you roll cage and what tires are you running in the rear? Also what gears and rear end?

JL Audio Stealthbox Finally Here
Brock79 replied to Brock79's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
I agree he has a lot of posts, it seems he has nothing else to do rather than live on this forum. If that's what he wants to do so be it, but yes he has been wrong on a few occasions which is understandable. Everyone is wrong once in awhile, including myself. -

i do offer to help others and I have, you are just mad because I corrected you on the sub woofer thread. Don't get your panties in a bunch because you were wrong. I don't like telling people to go do something if they are uncomfortable doing something. There are many different types of people out there. Just because you feel comfortable doing something to your car doesn't mean the next guy will. I also have seen multiple threads were you have been wrong and given out the wrong info. You can pull the wool over someone's eyes that doesn't know any better. But your not gonna fool me with the wrong info and trying to tell me you are right. I will give you credit for being right on some things and having the guts to pull apart your new car. But like you I understand how the cars snap together and how complicated looking things are simple. A lot of people don't want to rip apart a 30k plus vehicle. That's why I don't tell people to do it unless they are comfortable doing it.
