Got so off track forgot to update. While I was swapping the brake pedal assemblies for the ABS modded box assembly, I also fixed the 'You left your lights on dumbass!' warning! The headlight switch apparently lost it's ground... I discovered this by holding my hand on the headlight switch knob, and then touching something metal that was a ground. I think it was the shifter lever, it started dinging. Go figure...

On an update side, I managed to get my hazzard lights separated from the brake lights. So now my hazzards flash even if I step on the brakes! Yay! Check out the 'Would Somebody Be So Kind' thread to see how.

I really have a hard-on for Ford's 'NBC' chimer that they use on '09 Mustangs. I wonder where it would be, and if the part can be ordered by a dealer and/or compatible with the Merc's wiring.
Congrats on the hazard mod. My next trick will be getting the hazards to work, period. Then I'll likely consider copying it. :P1997 Lincoln Town Car Executive Series - Charlene
Saved from a tragic fate, planned mild restoration. Now with working heat, perfect for the cold winter!

As for the hazard mod, you can't do it with the '83, unless you add a 3rd brake light. Or you'll probably get rear ended.

Well I'll be heading to my local Ford parts desk for sure next week, if anybody wants to upgrade their chime.

Gotta find you one of those 80s VW 3 chime dingers, or maybe an 80s Nissan two-tone chime. Those are god awful annoying but if you're into door dingers and such its right up your alley. Mine used to be in the trunk somewhere. One of the door switches shit out in a rain storm and I had to listen to it chime for like an hour one night while driving somewhere. I ripped it out and never put it back in.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
