Don't they raise the volume of the radio? -
swapping a grey console to a black.......
Snowbear77 replied to Snowbear77's topic in Interior & Exterior Workshop
I should add , there is a small circuit wire that's connects the circuit board ( about 3 inches long under the P,R,N,D ), that connects down further into the gear select housing....similar to whats in the PS4 controller. But it dosent look disconectable.... -
hey guys, I purchased the whole gear selector out of a fg ( 5 speed auto)from a wrecker, just for the black fascia to swap over with my current grey one ( cause all black is better ). I have noticed that my gear select light ( red light ) is always on ( turns off with door lights ), .... I have to swap the circuit board ( underneath the P,R,N,D ) out of my 6 speed to put it into the 5 speed housing in the photo below. Has anybody had any issues with codes or changing gears after doing this?

FGX INTERIOR VS FG INTERIOR

Currently, my FG has the black interior..........but has the gawd awful bone colour pillars and roof lining. Every FG I have ever come across has the same................though I recently had a close look at a FGX and noticed it had dark grey pillars and a dark colored roof ( could see because of the dark tint ). What colours dose has the FGX interior pillars and roof lining come in? I'd ideally, love to find one in black and swap it all over from the FGX inro the FG......I'm not interested in painting mine black. Cheers.....

Which HI BEAM BULBS ARE THE BRIGHTEST?
Snowbear77 replied to Snowbear77's topic in Interior & Exterior Workshop
sorry, I had a light bar on my EL..........not my FG. I dumbied it up in the cavity of the front bumper and intercooler for a trial fit................and there is no chance of fitting it. -
Hey again......has anybody had any experience's with these side indicators for the FG? Though I'm cautious since they are from china https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2x-Side-Indicator-Guard-led-Flasher-light-For-Ford-Falcon-Xt-XR6-XR8-FG-08-2014/164573057677?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

hey hey.......I'm looking at upgrading my hi beams - to the brightest that they can possibly, without causing damage. These in the link below, are what I'm thinking are the goods.............or can somebody direct me to a better set. I have plenty of kangaroos in my area, are have been able to avoid them with my EL XR8...thanks to a 1300w light bar.............. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ford-FG-MK2-LED-Headlights-Highbeam-H7-Suits-XR6-8-G6E-FPV-Turbo-F6/263806643386 I already have 200w globes in my foglights..........though, the more light, the better.....

Hey guys , I'm looking for a replacement for my gear shift knob, though I have found 2 similar knobs from ' jefferson ford' on ebay with a difference of $50. I have a 2014 xr6T 6 speed......and would of thought it doesn't really matter, but for the sake of Fiddy dollar, I have seen some real crazy differences bewtween the MK1 and MK2 FG'S......below are the links to the 2 auctions......cheers https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Genuine-Ford-Fg-Mk2-Falcon-G6E-Sz-Territory-Tx-Titanium-Auto-Leather-Gear/232815205061?hash=item3634de1ac5:g:HRcAAOSwOBpfMjb4 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Genuine-Ford-Falcon-Fg-Mk2-Sz-Territory-6Spd-Auto-Leather-Gear-Shift-Knob/222988751984?hash=item33eb2a5470:g:5Q8AAOSwo8hfMjQq ๐

Replacing the diffuser on the F6

here's the link to the auction.........I've already purchased mine, so let me be the guinea pig, to see how it turns out , and I'll post up some pictures of it on the car, though the way the mail is these days, I'll hopefully have them by easter...........https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Explorer-CUSTOM-PAINTED-BLACK-EMBLEM-SET-5-3-4-7-OEM-measure-yours-first/193535969330?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

A little of topic ( though in the ballpark ), I'm all about deleting all chrome plastic off my car, and have found these babies to replace my badges.....I went with the stickers first, though I found someone in the US that could produce a full set for my FG............

Replacing the diffuser on the F6
Snowbear77 replied to Snowbear77's topic in Interior & Exterior Workshop
I purchased mine from MR bodykit ( SYDNEY ), and comes with mounting screws.............( though, The first one I received was buckled very badly, and have since had a replacement sent in it's place ), though I wont get around to doing anything with it till early February, when I'm having the rear bumper painted. -
Hey all, I'm definatley a fan of F6 rear bumper, but have been told the diffuser is not interchangeable, like on the standard FG rear bumper. I dont have direct access to an F6 rear bumper, and have no idea how the diffuser is attached......... Has anybody ever merged the rear bumper ( F6 +, ( with the single exhaust diffuser picture attached with success)?

@Puffwagon Do you have a link to the item, I cant find it. Cheers

That sounds a solid idea @bjc๐, but then I'm introducing steel scourers ( that can brake up over time, and then be sucked through my whole system ), but a fix to that, I'd have to put a filter behind them....to prevent any build up of broken scourers. But then this is to much to add to a oil can that wasn't made right, and at best, is a useless system. Antz may produce other good products, but the oil catch can is a joke. This oil can may look good and bolt up, but it wont do it's job unless you have to add material for it to work. How about a drain plug at the bottom, or any kind of filtration. At this point, I'm looking at the crank case oil catch can ( with filter ) from repco. ZACbaldy, I'll never believe a word that comes out of your mouth again................ Though I am open for any body else's suggestion to an oil catch can that works for the turboed XR6system

curious @Puffwagon what catch can do you use?
