Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle is a 2005-2009 Ford Mustang with the front right window motor application before ordering. This unit uses a hardwired/plug-in style connection, so compare the connector and mounting points to the original part before installation. Because the regulator is not included, inspect the existing regulator and related components for wear before reassembly.
