It's been posted before when someone found it in Mexico. They tried to gather people interested in one, and that was the last I heard about it.

I've been meaning to hunt one down forever and install it. Thanks for reminding me. :laugh:
 
i believe they were only on certain mondeos in certain countries. tony says he heard they are on some mondeos in mexico, and the only place i saw the pics was on a chinese website
 
That came up years ago. There is even a British company that made some CF ones. I recall talking to them about getting them over here but nothing ever came of it.

I also seem to recall that there was a concern on how it mounted to the UIM. Something about it not fitting US models.

Anyway, that was a very long time ago and I'm really tired not and going to bed.
 
I suppose I could ask around here, but I don't really know anyone that knows anything about cars and where to get parts like this, let alone has a car or likes Ford. It would be in January though.
 
In England we can buy them from ford dealers not cheap though £70 odd for the cover and then you also need the bits to fix to the UIM looking at about £90-100 total for you guy thats gonna be $200+ to get one from the UK

I am sure I could get all of that for about that price, but in euros. Then again, compared to the US, prices here can be a little crazy.
 
yes yes, we all know that you get better stuff over seas, rub it in a little more.
