Turns out they sent me headlights for the halogen and need xenon/projector.  They're going back.  Tomorrow, I'll be calling all the junkyards in Milwaukee.  Hopefully, I can find a decent set.

Tasca!  Pity they are adding to their "unreliable" reputation.  Seems their parts counter needs some straightening out.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Bringing her in Tuesday.  They will use whatever they can.  They show that all the headlights are HID so they should be able to use the ones I have.  Same part numbers for 2010 SE through 2012 SHO.  I'll send whatever's left back.  Great Ford dealer.  Peck Ford in Clinton Wisconsin.

Do you have your Christmas tree up like we do???  LOL   

In defense of Wendy, our Son and GF are arriving tomorrow to go to Nascar at Homestead, and after they leave, we have less than 48 hrs before next Son and family come for Thanksgiving week.  So... it was last Sun... or NEVER...

I don't wrap presents... we owned 2 China and gift shoppes for 16 years and I still have tape stuck to my fingers even though we got out of the business in 96'!
