Hi Amel, I'm considering purchasing a 2017 5.0 litre V8 Mustang. Do you have any pre-purchase advice to offer, thanks.
@AmelsGarage15 сағат бұрын
Second gen 5.9 V8 Mustang is a great choice. Before purchasing, make sure to check the vehicle history report and inspect for wear and tear. Take it for a test drive to identify any issues and review the maintenance records to ensure it’s been well-maintained. I also recommend considering the Track Pack GT with recaro seats. Lastly, make sure you love the car and that if feels right. Good luck

@@AmelsGaragethanks again. I got the part and installed it. AC back working. Also an easier way to get to the AC clutch hub is to remove the two bolts on the front of your coolant reservoir Then you can just prop that up on top of your intake hose and you can have clear access to the AC clutch hub.

Really comprehensive video so thanks. 2questions. 1. Does the Android system require connection to your phone to play the radio, or does it have a radio built in? 2. My 2003 330 ci E46 has a Harman Kardon system, so do I need the additional amp you mentioned (does it come with this model) as I could not see it on the website? Phillip
@AmelsGarage10 күн бұрын
You don’t have to connect your phone to play local radio stations, it has radio built in also allows you to set your own preset stations. You don’t need DSP amp but i do highly recommend as it crisps out the sound by whole lot. I have the link in my description of my video, it’s only $59. Also link for the head unit is in description, once you click on it, it will ask you few questions about your current set up and connections. Thank you.

@AmelsGarage10 күн бұрын
You can do it on the unit, but being old unit, i had to connect to the reverse light as trigger. I recently upgraded it to new EONON E46A13 unit and it has better connections for backup camera, it’s plug and play. Also comes with additional connectors to run x amount of cameras. Check out video on my KZfaq page, i will be having another video soon on new back up camera with dash cam.

If you are doing lots of high speed, freeway driving it might reduce. But anything up to 45 mph won’t be noticeable. I didn’t notice anything different. Still get same watts per hour.
