you bought the CDC, MRT or Stack Racing one? I've got the MRT which is the top of the line, wrapped in leather light bar, all it really is, is a CDC thats been encased in leather since it came with CDC directions lol. The stack racing is the CDC one, except minus the 4th high mount brake light, and also a heck of a great deal

http://www.americanmuscle.com/05-07-...r-install.html

that is the first place where i found the directions, these are the CDC directions on the AM site. I followed these directions and everything went smoothly. If you and i can meet-up at a mutually good day i'll help you install it, i've got the T-50 bit which is a slightly odd sized bit that you need to remove the rear seat belt, i have a drill press at home well my father does that i use lol, that i used to pre-drill out the holes in the top of the plastic panels where the bar goes through, i also used a paper towel to catch all of the debris from the metal when i drilled the holes.

In all honesty, this was my favorite mod that i installed on my car. Took me about 3 hours and i took my time doing it. I brought my stang in the aircraft hanger this past feb and did it in a free afternoon i had.
