Big Problem
OK i'm not too happy right now....well I was installing my shifter knob damn thing looks great but I was listening to my radio and I killed the battery...great cant even jump the son of a b**** which means I have to get a new one...to the bigger problem I cant get my key out of the starter my shifter is in park but its still not going back to the point where it needs to be i'm hoping its because of the dead battery cuz i'm really worried about it....thank god I have my spare keys.

My battery is the stock one and doenst hold a good charge......and I was out there for maybe 2-3 hours with the lights on in the car and the radio on....since the car isnt on the cars alternater cant recharge the battery hence it dies and you cant turn the car on without electricity........I didnt think that i'd be out there that long.....oh well **** happens but still cant get the key out

Update after doing several tests to diagnose whats going on i've come to 2 possible things..
1. Mustangs have sensitive brake pedal sensors if they are pressed in like half way, the igntion will not let the key out. 2. The Shifter is not completely at park. which I doubt is the case because I tried pushing it a bit further with no success. -Cant test theory one untill the car can be started and the brake is released fully

It's not that if that were the case I wouldnt be able to move the wheel or be able to move into start position or at least not easily. But I can so its not that -OK problem fixed it was a mixed problem with the brake, anti theft device and the battery........dont ask had to hit some things
