That looks sweet man,good picture. I've resisted getting the Roush set up because I wasn't sure about the "Roush" name on the cluster bezel....but after seeing your pictures you wouldn't hardly notice it, plus it looks damn good. I'm not sure how the door panel pieces would look since I have light gray interior and $250 is a lot to pay for just the ac/radio and cluster bezel.

First off, I too thought about the Roush Emblem would be too noticable. However, you cant even really see it.

Second I think that the kit would still look good with gray.

Third, you can get it for about 179.00 here

Fourth, if you send me a pick of your interior like you door, as close to resemble one of my doors, i can photoshop it so that you can see what it would like on your car.

Thanks for the info. $175 isn't a bad price at all. Did you use your existing AC vents? Did they just pop out of the the old bezel and into the new one?

the pieces are actually moldings that use 3M tape and they will stick on. However, no one is going to know that, it just looks like they are new pieces. Just lay them on and good to go.

This way you can always take it off if you go to sell it.

Since they just stick on with tape, are they flush with everything as if it were stock, or do they stick out a bit?

Stevoneo · 03-03-2005, 12:30 AM

because it is a layer on top of another layer, than of coarse it will stick out.

You would not be able to tell when you are in my car. Only I know that it is a layer on another layer. When you get in a roush you will think that they just replaced the plastic pieces in the car but it is just stuck on top.

Answer to your question NO!!! Looks Flush.

jjtgiants · 03-03-2005, 09:08 AM

Oh, I thought they were the actual molded plastic pieces that replace the existing pieces. I currently have the UPR dash trim kit which uses the same 3M concept, but I'm looking for the actual pieces to replace. Looks like I might have to get them painted for that to happen.

Stevoneo · 03-03-2005, 01:17 PM

the roush kit is actual plastic moldings. They use 3m tape to hold on. It is not this vinal or paper stuff that you are use to seeing.

If you are going to paint, be very careful.

That looks great.

I painted mine red to match the exterior of the car and it turned out ok. Most people thought a professional did it. You just have to make sure you sand the area with about a 600 - 1000 grit.

I haven't done the center console area (radio, heater/ac controls) and I'm hesitant to do so. Did you have to remove the radio or anything else to put in the dash kit or did it just stick on?

Stevoneo · 03-14-2005, 02:34 PM

just sticks on. You do need to take the moldings out though, makes easier with install. The radio can stay in, do not need to take it out.

jjtgiants · 03-14-2005, 02:42 PM

Removing the center bezel is pretty easy. When I got my white a/c gauge I wasn't sure how to get the center bezel off so I took it to the Ford dealership and found a cool mechanic to show me how to take it off. It's basically held in place by clips and to remove it you have to firmly, but carefully pull it out. I believe there are 6 clips holding it in.

Attached is a picture of the dash kit I have. To be honest I didn't do that great of a job putting it on and I should have removed the pieces before sticking it on.
