Default 2011 Mustang GT Dash lighting...
I just don't feel it...I hope that's a prototype, or you can change that.

It's Nice!


If your a girl!

I agree.... Looks like panties on a pig just ain't right.....

I've always been fond of a brushed steel look why not just keep it simple with nice LED back lighting....

red, blue, orange, something simple that doesn't DISTRACT from the road. I'll probably get pelted for saying this, but I liked the simpleness of the S97 interior over the S197. I never dug the retro thing. The 2010/11 Mustang looks more like a mish mash between a S197 and a S97. I like it a bit better than the 2005-9.

Eventhough you have a new edge, you would think a mustang guy would know you could change them since 2005. Something like 120 colors.

I am pretty sure you are right. I wouldn't want those colors on my gauges, but if you could change them to one color it would look pretty cool. I think the gauges look pretty cool, just not the colors shown in that particular picture.

They can be changed. No one could stand to look at those colors for more than 5 seconds in their car. It'd cause a wreck.

Yea, I know you can change them but some colors should never be photographed.

Still, I think the middle gages (GM spelling there, lol) are a little outdated looking. Not just retro but they just dont really fit with the speedo and tach to me.

I own a Mustang.. not so much a Mustang guy. I like all fast cars. The only time I've spent in a S197 was the day time.

So you can change em huh. Cool.

The colors don't bother me so much since they can be changed, but I'd much rather have the rpm on the left and the speedometer on the right.

Heh, funny you should say that. Because the 05-09's had it arranged that way. Ford swapped the tach over to the right for the 2010 model.
