Brembo Brakes now at StangMods

Hello all, we are happy to announce the addition of Brembo brakes to www.StangMods.com



Brembo offers a comprehensive line of brake components and systems ranging from direct O.E. replacement parts to high performance upgrades and complete racing systems. Each component and system is developed using Brembo’s innovative technology, experience and QS- and ISO-certified quality standards. Upgrade your Mustang's brakes with only the best in the business. Brembo is an OE supplier for Ferrari, Lamborghini, Ford, & Subaru.

It doesn't matter how fast your Stang is if you can't bring it to a stop in a relatively short distance. Upgrading your brakes will not only add functionality, but you'll also add style and class. You can upgrade your front rotors to a cross drilled or slotted style and still retain the use of your stock calipers, lines, and even pads.


Cross Drilled Rotors:



Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors undergo the race-born practice of cross drilling to provide multiple paths to disperse built-up heat and gasses.



Slotted Rotors:



Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors undergo race-born practice of machining multiple shallow slots into the disc’s front and rear surfaces to provide paths to disperse built-up heat and gasses, and assist in refreshing the surface of the brake pads.

So, whether your looking for an upgraded look or extra stopping power on the street, a set of Brembo brakes is an excellent upgrade!

StangMods has slotted and cross drilled Brembo rotors starting at $179 shipped for the pair. With the ability to re-use your stock calipers, lines, and pads, we make it relatively inexpensive to upgrade your Mustang with a set of cross drilled or slotted rotors.

As always, have fun in your Stang and be safe!

Why HID Lighting for your Mustang?

We get several emails and calls a day from customers asking about our HID lighting kits for the Ford Mustang, Lightning, and Harley Truck. Listed below are the most common questions and answers to these questions.

Question: Will HIDs melt my headlamps or wiring?

Answer: ABSOLUTELY NOT! You see, your stock Mustang headlight bulb consumes 55 watts of power when on. Our HID bulbs consume only 35 watts of power. The truth is, HIDs consume 20 less watts to operate than a halogen bulb. This means, your HID kit will consume LESS power and produce LESS heat than your stock bulbs. In addition, StangMods.com would never sell a product that would be detrimental to your vehicle's functioning. We stand behind all of our products 100%!

Question: What does 4300K, 6000K, 8000K, 10000K, 12000K mean?

Answer: These numbers are used to distinguish between the different color temperatures of each kit. When we say temperature, we are not referring to hot or cold. Instead, we are referring to the color and amount of light that is emitted. As a general rule of thumb, the LOWER the kelvin temperature, the BRIGHTER the light output will be. Thus, a 4300K HID Kit will produce more light than a 12000K HID kit. In addition, some think that the higher kelvin temperature, the more heat that is produced. This is simply untrue. Each kit operates at only 35 watts! Your stock halogen bulb uses 55 watts!

Question: What is the difference between the 4300K, 6000K, 8000K, 10000K, and 12000K HID Kit. Which one is brighter?

Answer: The only noticeable difference between each kit is the color of light that they produce. Technically, the 4300K produces more light than the 12000K, but the difference is very not noticeable. In deciding which HID kit to get, you should choose a kit that produces the color of your liking. Below is a side by side comparison of the color produced by each kit.


As you can see, the 4300K produces a pure white light. The 6000K produces a whiteish-blue light, the 8000K produces a blue light, and the 10000K produces a blueish-purple light.
Question:What is the difference between your kits and the less expensive kits found on Ebay?
Answer: Ever heard the expression, you get what you pay for? This is exactly the case when comparing our HIDs to less expensive kits on the market. When you purchase an HID kit for your Mustang, Lightning, or Harley Truck from StangMods, you are getting a fully backed warranty and the peace of mind knowing that we are here to provide support before, during, and after your purchase. The less expensive kits you see out there are made from cheaper products. There is a reason why they are priced so cheap!
Here are a few reasons why you should buy from StangMods
Our HID kits come with a full one year warranty.
Most ebay kits come with little or no warranty at all.
Our kits are designed specifically for your application.
When you buy off Ebay, you are buying a "one size fits all" type of kit.
We provide our own, detailed installation instructions and technical support.
Other kits come with generic universal instructions. Most of the time, the instructions are not even in english!
StangMods.com will be there for you before, during, and after the sale!
You've got to ask yourself, what does an Ebay seller have to lose AFTER you've left positive feedback?
More questions, as they come along will be posted. If you would like, feel free to contact us anytime at: 1.800.618.9350
As always, have fun in your Stang and be safe,

Mustang HID Kit...Where to Mount Your Ballasts

While our HID kits are 100% plug and play, the hardest part about the installation is finding a good spot to mount your ballasts. We decided to post up some pictures and information on where we recommend the ballasts to be mounted on all of our HID headlight kits.

Driver Side
On the drivers side, when you remove the headlamp, you will see decent side hole in which you can pass all the HID wires through and tuck your ballast behind. Please see the picture below for reference.


As you can see, our ballast is tucked in between the headlamp post and battery. We recommend to first install your new HID bulb, then plug in the connections to the ballast, and finally , slide the ballast into place. Please note, there is more than enough space for two ballasts to be tucked in behind this hole. Those of you with HID Foglight kits, you can also tuck the ballast from that kit in behind the headlamp and run the wires down to your foglamp.

Passenger Side
Mounting the ballast on the passenger side is as simple as making all of your connections to the HID bulb and then simply using double sided tape to secure the ballast to the fenderwall as shown in the picture below.



Notice, we are running a JLT True Ram air on our 04 Mach 1. Even if you have the stock induction set up, you will still have plenty of space on the fenderwall to install the ballast. The wires will be long enough to reach the HID bulb.

With the examples outlined above, mounting your ballasts in this manner will help keep them away from water and any moving engine parts. The ballasts are for the most part water resistant and will not be harmed if exposed to small amounts of water.

You can view all of our HID light offerings by visiting the link: HERE

As always, have fun in your Stang and be safe!

How To: Making your foglights stay on when turning your high beams on in your 94-04 V8 Mustang.

On all 94-04 GT & Cobra Mustangs, when the high beams are activated, the foglights immediately turn off. This is a function implemented from the factory. With the introduction of our Bi-Xenon HID Headlight Kit and HID Foglight Kit for 94-04 Mustangs, we wanted our customers to be able to run the HID high beam while having their HID foglights stay on. Outlined below are the steps necessary to have your foglights stay on when your high beams are activated in any 94-04 Mustang.


Materials Needed:
  • 16 gauge wire approximately 2.5” in length ($4.24 for a 12’ roll)
  • Two male spade connectors ($3.14 for a pack of 4)
  • Electrical Tape ($2.09 for a roll)
  • Wire Strippers
  • Needle Nose Pliers


  • Preparing Jumper (fake relay):
  • Take your 16 gauge wire and strip off approximately ½” of the plastic sheathing on both ends.
  • Crimp the two male spade connectors at each end of your 16 gauge wire with your pliers. Wrap any exposed wire with black electrical tape.
  • This completes the fabrication of your jumper.




  • Step 1:
  • Open the cover on the fuse box located underneath the hood and remove the relay using needle nose pliers.


    Step 2:
  • Once the relay is removed, you will notice five different open slots. The male connectors at each end of your jumper must be inserted in the two outermost slots.

    Step 3:
  • Insert your jumper (fake relay) in the two outermost slots.

    Step 4:
  • Finally, finish your installation by closing the cover on the fuse box. You are now done!


  • You should now be able to turn your high beams without having the foglights cut off.


    For further questions on the installation process or questions on any of our HID Lighting products, please feel free to contact us:

    Mach 1 Grille Delete...The differences between the two.

    After numerous emails and calls from customers wondering what the differences were between the two and three piece grille delete, we decided to create a little review on the two grille deletes. Enjoy!

    StangMods.com offers a two-piece and three-piece Mach 1 Grille Delete for your 99-04 GT or V6. There is only one slight difference between the two kits. Both kits use OEM Ford parts for excellent fitment and looks. Read on below for more information on the Mach 1 Grille Deletes we offer.


    Two Piece Grille Delete:
    This kit includes the running pony emblem and the lower plastic "U" shaped section. The two piece kit is shown directly below.



    Three Piece Grille Delete:
    This kit includes the running pony emblem, lower plastic "U" shaped section, and the upper-center grille section. The three piece kit is shown directly below.



    Differences:
    As you can see from the pictures above, the only difference between the grille deletes is that the three piece kit includes the upper-center grille section.

    Differences In Installation:
    There are absolutely no differences in installation between the two kits. Installation is very simple, the hardest part being removing your stock grille.

    Differences in Looks:
    It is hard to distinguish between the two piece and three piece grille delete when the hood of your Mustang is closed. The upper center grille section in the three piece kit is primarily visible only when the hood is opened. It more or less gives the grille area a cleaner appearance when the hood is popped.

    Whick Kit to Purchase:
    We recommend going for the two piece kit if you are on a budget. The three piece kit is approximately $40 more. If you show your car and want to maintain a cleaner look, we suggest spending the extra money and going for the three piece kit. Otherwise, the two piece kit gets the job done very well while saving you $40.

    As always, enjoy your Stang and be safe out there!

    The StangMods Team

    Spray bottle with warm water and three drops of liquid soap.
    Squeege for installation (included with tints)
    Paper Towels

    Step One:
    Thoroughly clean the surface of the lens in which you are applying the tint to.

    Step Two:

    Step Three:
    Generously spray soapy solution onto the adhesive side of the tint film and the lens you are working on.
