RE: So I decided what to do to my car.
Thanks TechmanBD and Patrick for explaining that to me. That mirror looks nice. If I had a garage, I'd get one. The lizard skin sounds like it would be nice in getting rid of the noise if it really bothers you. Maybe since my engine isn't that loud, it doesn't bother me very much. In fact, I like hearing the engine.

RE: So I decided what to do to my car.
Pioneers Are good units. That would be my second choice. The Alpine I have in the Ranger, which I took out of the Silverado, put into the Neon, then into the ranger I have now, I haven't had problems as far as breaking. I just think the way they have their controls is a pain compared to the other 2.
I like the sound of my engine as well. But this stuff also helps with keeping the music to sound better as well I believe Keeps it in the car, Plus I will get the ceramic for heat as well. You can feel the heat in my car coming from the engine bay. And protects the floor from getting corroded.

I thought that the lizard skin was meant to keep stereo sound in? I really dont know..stereo stuff is not my thing...although Ive fixed the systems in both of our vehicles...

The Lizardskin product has been used on Horsepower TV many times and they seem to like it both for heat, vibration, and noise. I have also seen them spray it
underneath the carpet on the floor board and the car.
I have had the autodimming mirrors on my Ford Taurus and now Dodge Caravan and I like it. At night it also help to keep from getting blinded at night
from cars that are behind you. The lights in the mirror look a little blue and it helps from getting blinded. In the day, you will not notice a difference.
I think they call it them Electrochromatic mirrors.

That is probably where I saw Lizardskin the first time, watching that show, then going online and finding it.
That sounds about right Jeremiah, about the ELectrochromatic. This big reason I want this mirro as well, is the homelink system. It would be nice to have instead of the controller sitting in the center consol. I feel it will clean up the car so to speak, by being part of the car and not something hanging around. And with the compass and Temp gauge. I am a tech geek. [X(]. I like cool stuff like that

Great! Besides cars we are both tech geeks.

UPDATE RE: So I decided what to do to my car.
I have updated my list. I just installed a CAI from Granatelli. It was a pain but like the results. here are a couple pics of the CAI, also some pics of my Ipod Drive and play and Basslink sub.
I also decided not to lower the car so I took the ford racing suspension kit off, and put on more BMR suspension components and Tokico shocks. And removed the whipple charger. I don't think I will ever get one.

RE: UPDATE RE: So I decided what to do to my car.
Looks good TechmanBD. BTW, you mentioned that if you talked about that over at MF, you would be bashed. Why? Do you get bashed for saying hi or something? Some people are just odd for some unknown reason.

RE: UPDATE RE: So I decided what to do to my car.
I like the looks of the CAI. I have a similar set up on my Grand prix GTP, but it kind of a mix between a CAI and a FWI fenderwell intake. On mine in draws the air through the headlight giving it fresh cool air. Is it pulling in air the same way or from under the hood. I don't know very much about mustangs, so it might be a stupid question.
Did it give a sound difference on your car? It made a huge difference on mine, the supercharger just whines so loud now
Anyways nice looking car and good luck on the rest of your wish list.
