Title: CC plates
Post by: Kitz Kat on December 28, 2008, 11:57:49 AM
I searched about 50 pages can't find the info.
Can an 87 use stang ones with stang struts, I didn't think so , But I can buy them cheaper.

Why won't mustangs work? Holes don't line up? I'm curiuos.
They can't be that far off.

Because I got a cheaper price on stang ones. If it's just enlarging a hole here and there , It would be worth it.
Besides I'm learning more each day, That gets scary!!

I used fox style CC plates and the only hole I had to modify was the front hole on each side. No problems at all with the rear two.
