Might anyone have a source for one?

My 2007 MKZ has base headlights in it and they are broken and will not align. Found a pair of HID headlights off a 2009 MKZ and went to install them this weekend. Huge pain to do this. Electrical plugs match up and I was able to get one of them in. Worked when I tested it before I got it all...

'00 V6 5 Speed Manual. Replacing the radiator in the next couple days and I have a question. I read through the process per the Ford shop manual and it does say to remove the air conditioning condenser. I suspect that this does not really need to be done as the radiator looks fairly simple...

Just did a 30% tint on all the windows except the windshield. Been noticing that my headlamps are coming on during the day. Wondering if the tint might be the cause. Has anyone noticed this happening after tinting the windows?

Like the title says, I am looking to trade a McLaren Grille for a Wings West Spoiler for the LS. Please do not ask me to sell it, trade only. I purchased the Grille new on Ebay about years ago. I did paint it black but used crappy paint and it is chipped and cracked. All mounting tabs are...

I have stored my LS over the winter and before I got it back on the road I did some work to the sunroof. Had the headliner down and such. When I got it back on the road I noticed that the interior lights all stayed on. This is the front and rear interior dome lights and also the side marker...

I used Duplicolor paint to repaint my fender about 5 years ago. Looks like crap now, fading etc and I need to repaint it. There are a few websites that match factory paint codes and put the paint in the spraycan for you. I would like to hear from someone who has used these websites such as =...

Just rebuilt my sunroof and it did not fix the issue. So i called junkyards today looking for a sunroof and multiple yards told me that the 2000 had a mid year change in the sunroof and I needed to measure to see if I had the right one. The said that the sunroof are backwards compatible but...

I have a '00 LS with a sunroof. I am in the process or completing my interior change out to all black and I pulled the headliner out this weekend. I do plan on keeping the car so I am not looking for quick fixes but smart maintenance for longevity. My question for others is what...

Many early LS's had a CD changer in the glovebox or there was an aftermarket setup where the CD changer got mounted in the trunk. Even if there was not a CD changer the LS's had the cord that went from the radio head unit to the glove box area. I have tried to pull one of these at the junkyard...

I should know this, but with a visual inspection I don't see an obvious electrical switch for when the door opens. The one that turns on the interior lights. Does anyone know right off hand where the switch is located and what triggers it?

Wondering if anyone can easily answer my question. I have a '00 LS 5 Speed. I am going to put Bilsteins in my LS doing the swap to a Jag S type springs in the front. I already have Bilsteins in the rear. Have some $ now and can afford to do the front. I know I will need to get springs for...

Short Shifter! For over 10 years I have been looking to either build or find a short shifter that would fit the LS. The reach to 5th gear is sometimes to long for me and I find myself missing the gear. That was my primary motivation. I found a shifter from an 02 in the junkyard a while back and...

It is looking more and more like I need to change the oil pan gasket in my '00 V6 LS. 5 speed by the way. I would like to glean any wisdom from those that have done it before. I looked for posts on it, but did not find anything here. I do have access to a lift. If I look at this correctly it...

Has anyone found a direct replacement for the 5 speed shifter that would reduce the throw? I figure that there must be a BMW shifter that works. Anyone looked into this?

I have a Gen 1 V6 5 speed. Car does not idle down when shifting into neutral and either coasting or coasting and braking to a stop. Idle hangs and bounces around up to 2500 RPM. It will usually do this until the car comes to a stop. Sometimes the idle will go down if I step on the clutch...

I have an issue with the instrument cluster not communicating with other modules. u1262 code. I have followed the troubleshooting guide in the Factory Repair Manual and concluded that the instrument cluster needs to be replaced. I can get a new cluster, but cannot download the current setup...

Blew out the alternator and battery on my 2000 5 Speed. There are two alternators for the V6. One for the auto and one for the manual. Both put out 105 amps. Does anyone know why there is a different alternator? Second question. For you guys that are running extra amps to power subs were...

I have my second 2000 V6 5 speed and I have found this problem with both cars. When driving in light snow the car will occasionally "stumble" like the engine might be stopping. I have only had it happen on the highway and only in a light snowfall. I don't see any electrical shutdown, but it...

Going to look for a hood for my '00 as I have a dent in there that would be more expensive to fix then just replace. Just wondering if anyone knows if the first and second generation hoods are the same. I suspect not as I believe the grills are different. Anyone know for certain?
