    I was wondering what upgrades you have all done using parts from later model Falcons etc to your 69/70 Mustangs.
    I know you can use XF and older Upper Control arms etc, but are there any other common swaps using steering boxes & parts? Modern seats? Brakes etc?
    There must have been upgraded suspension etc manufactured for XD to XF, is any of this still available?
    I have been looking at RRS steering racks, brakes and suspension, but the costs are still much for a weekend cruiser.

    What would I need to bolt in a FE engine (390 in this case)?
    Anyone gone down this road and regretted it?
     
    I'm guessing a C6 might be required or is thereT5 conversion parts available?

    Hi Guys, I have been trying to get hold of Mustang Project for two weeks now to discuss my faulty LED tail lights.
    Have sent multiple emails from different accounts and left numerous phone messages.
    So far, have had zero response.
    I know they are still trading as one of the guys here has just purchased hood turn signal LEDs, he got an email response within an hour.
    This is the worst experience I have had with a USA supplier, all other dealings have been good.
     
    What are my options here? I have a product with a lifetime warranty that is faulty and now I'm spending money on international calls trying to get a response.
     
    Any ideas?

    Henk,
    I have had good experiences with NPD and CJ Pony.
    Had an issue with the chrome quality on some door handles, NPD stood behind their product no issue.
    I would use them for everything but their freight costs are higher than CPJ usually.
     
    Purchased some dynacorn fold down seat trim from CJP, and initially had some issues getting it sorted, but they came to the party eventually.
     
    Wouldn't purchase from Laurel Mountain Mustang again, poor quality grille trim and basically told me that's as good as it gets.
     
    Currently having an issue getting Mustang Project to stand behind their product, but have heard good things about Vintage LED's if you are looking at products like that.
    Thread on these products in the technical section.

    I purchased a full set of grill trim from them for my 70.
    Quality and fit was pretty poor so I emailed them photos and got this response.
     
    I've never had anyone else have a problem with them, and from the pictures it looks like they just aren't fitted properly.
     
    After a follow up email they offered to contact the supplier.
     
    Then after a third reminder (a month later) they responded exactly with this:
     
    From what they're saying is it's in the stamping and at this time they aren't doing anything to fix it because of cost. If they were to fix that the price of the part would skyrocket
     
    Haven't purchased anything further from them since.
