This is what everyone ends up doing. I followed these instruction and my drivers works pretty good now. some months latter my passenger seat motor will quit if you work the seat once or twice. Let it alone for some 8 minutes and it will work again for a few seconds. Same electric motor brushes...

The compressor clutch is looking fine turned on or off. One web guy said he replaced the compressor and it still had the ticking as it did before. Odd as that is, I would think the ability to make pressure would start to fail. but another guy said his Ford pump has been ticking for 5 years and...

Even with diving into a google search, not much in definitive answers on why the Ford AC pumps develop a ticking sound. Its pretty rapid and rises with rpm's. Turn off the AC and all is smooth and quiet at idle. I just had it serviced last year and all was good and it still blows cold but the...

Looks like your going to have to make one or keep an eye out on Ebay. Keep in mind, these brake because the motor puts too much extension movement in the metal arm that the blend door arm can not move that far. The excessive extension on the arm is what brakes it. I have an article here that...

Your car looks great. Looked up the ceramic film. I'm glad I never got around to doing mine with the old stuff. Its on my bucket list now.

I'v got a box full of LED 9005's and 9003's from ebay and they arnt worth a crap. And thats in the "improved" gen 2 housings. The only ones that were half way good were the 6 sided 9005 LEDS with fan. But even that, they needed the halogen bulb cup removed or they just throw light all over the...

DDM tuning? been there done that and had one bad bulb/ballast after another. Tried the more expensive Morimoto HID bulbs, again not impressed with no light situations. Of course this is Gen II but the quality of what's out there in questionable "upgrade" is not good after many, many hours...

I use the same bulb for low beam and high beam. These bulbs are 3 wire plugs as seen in the picture. The connector tab near the table is ground. The tab facing toward the bulb is low beam. the tab facing up is high beam. Use only the low beam tab in both your low beam and high beam ports if you...

**** NOTE, its actualy a 1 and 1/8th hole saw, NOT 1". I'm sorry I can't make corrections directly.

Sorry for the DBL. should be this one

Here is how to get the 9003's into the High beam 9005 sockets. First remove the black 9005 plastic retainer. Clip out the nub pictured and scrape it smooth for no protrusion. A 1" hole saw will open the 9005 port out for the 9003 but in order to do rhis you need to use the saw to cut out a wood...

After a dozen different tested China bulbs of various types, I'm thinking this is about as good as its ever going to be with latest/greatest refit projectors. https://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/forum/ams/gen-2-led-headlight-bulbs-low-high.110/

The latest , greatest low beam and high beam LED mod is here. I'v been threw the mill testing and modifying. This mod finaly brings the Gen 2 up to snuff with the latest LED's mods. https://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/forum/ams/gen-2-led-headlight-bulbs-low-high.110/

After I wrote the above article, I found a lumens monitor I have. With some testing I found the 34w low beam of the 9003 small diameter projector was the top performer with 24-25K Lm @ 6 feet away. The 6 sided non projector I have in the high beam spot now only produces 15K Lm at 23w. You can...
