- This video demonstrates how to replace your automatic great shifter trim blind cover on a 2005-2009 Ford Mustang. Tools needed are: Ratchet & extension with a 10mm and 7mm socket, flathead screwdriver, T15 screwdriver and Philips-head screwdriver. *NOTE* - Make sure your parking brake is up and you're on level ground while changing your shifter trim blind cover. There will be times when you move your gear shifter from Park to Neutral and other gears.
Here is a link to purchase a new trim cover (shipping from the U.S., not China): amzn.to/3uycQKt
If the new trim piece you purchased is slightly wider than the original one, you can cut/trim the sides of the new piece with scissors.

Just replaced this part on my 2006 mustang. Instead of ordering the piece I went to Office Depot and bought a black folder that I cut to fit into place. Works perfectly and I only spent $4.
You’re the goat will be going there this weekend to fix this issue 💪🏾💯
Ooo wow.. just seeing this, doing it ASAP. Thxs
Your a genius
Shit I guess I’ll be doing this 😂😂😂
What did you do about the red dot?
I have the same issue with my mustang and I thank you for posting this turorial. Your videos are very helpful. Keep making tutorial like this! Thank you Martin!
Thank you for this video. I ordered the part from eBay, but it didn't fit, so I had to cut it myself to make it fit. And now it works. My auto repair shop wanted to sell me a whole automatic shift gate. Now I have saved a lot of money by replacing the part myself.
I wish this video was around like 2 years ago when I had to do this by myself haha. I could not find a replacement for the black trim online, so I had to make one myself out of a black plastic folder. Great video!
My granddaughter just got a 2007 Mustang; now I can help beautify the vehicle's interior. Thank you for this video. It was great and it is easy to follow.
Thank you for Explaining in all your Videos all the Steps necessary to complete these repairs...😊
Thanks for a great video. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to tackle it but your video is excellent and I think I could do it by following your instructions. It shows all of the important steps, very well done.
This just started binding up on me last night so irritating. Thank you for this video Not knowing what it was I was stressing now that I watched your video I'm not stressing as much thanks man.
Very helpful. I made the part using a black plastic folder and an Xacto knife.
Thanks much. Replacing mine today. Great camera work too
Was really helpful thank you for posting
Bought a 2005 and this piece was missing entirely , bought a replacement and it arrives tomorrow , thanks !
Thats alot of work jist to replace that piece lol i think i might leave it the way it is since the weather is changing now and have no garage but great and helpful video.
Nice.. I will look into fixing my Shifter cover soon. BTW sir, I was wondering which steering wheel cover do you recommend for my 2006 Stang for excellent gripping?? Thank you in advance.
I’ve got a 2014 I’m gonna try to use this knowledge for if the dealer doesn’t fix this by Friday. But it’s more the orange indication doesn’t line up with the actual gear it’s in. So I’ll fix that myself.
*Edit*: I’d be cleaning it up too while I’m at it.
Did u ever fix it ?? That’s how my 2013 is after my dust cover broke from the bottom end . It goes into park and everything else perfectly but the orange light doesn’t align when it’s in park
Do you think the shifter handle and connector can be replaced without removing everything? Can you insert the connector without taking it all apart? Thanks
Hi my lights on thé Shift handle arent working, is there also way to fix it?
Not mistaken mine is l.e.d
can you do a video of this but for a 2003 mustang
And I was thinking of replacing that cause mines is also broke but I gotta take apart my whole center console just to change it
Geez I've installed stereos in vehicles and had to.pull less crap.off. but my wife has an 05 mustang she bought brand new back then and this happen last year and been bugging me. Also the leather/vinyl on the door panels peeling off. But atleast the early 2000s trucks and cars were still somewhat easy to work on, everything pops on and off with tabs and clips.
😂literally going through the same thing
When I took my shifter off it was just the metal arm piece. Somehow my car is missing the plastic piece that goes over that meaning I can’t get my replacement track piece to line up correctly. Do you know what the piece is called?
I had to do this on mine because of the previous owner. It worked for a while, but after trying to replace stereo, the shifter broke to where it can shift gears without me pressing the button that's supposed to unlock it. Any ideas?
Can you find a link for a 2014 one? Mine is cracked and I googled it and came up with nothing.
I want to replace my automatic shift knob for a more modern one is this possible on these mustangs?
Pretty sure as long as you find one with the OD connection.
Hi, my great shifter trim blind cover broke, and now my gears don't match the letters - for example, I have to put it in "neutral" to reverse, and I have to put it in 3 to drive. I'm going to be getting it fixed in the next couple of days, but I'm wondering if it's safe to drive until then. I did make it home after discovering the issue, but I'm reluctant to drive it again until it's fixed. Thanks!
Did u fix
@@MasterChief100k The mechanic I went to said it would be "very expensive" to fix, and since it basically works fine, I'm driving it as is.
@@kaylumus1 mines the same orange light doesn’t line up but it still goes into Drive and everything perfectly
Question, I have a 2009 mustang with headlight that wont shut off. I have the standard light switch (off position) with no fog lights. Is there a way to have my headlights turn off or will I need to replace the wiring/switch entirely?
Ever figure out the issue??? Just picked up a 08 with the same problem
@@jaydanmcdaniel9545 Nope, never figured it out
I’m currently trying to find a shifter cover replacement for 2014 mustang 😢
Did you find one ? I need one too
Me too
This part just disintegrated on me 10 minutes ago 🤬
Same dude waste of money
Bruh the sensor wont unplug i try pinching it
Bro that od sensoe at 2 mins will not plug
Hi. I changed tge blind but now my key stuck in ignition. When I pulled the shift handle out .the spring loaded shift popped out. What now? Help
I’m having that issue now I’m so defeated did you find a fix for it?
currently trying to figure how to get the handle back off because my button won’t work, at it 100 degrees out😂
@@juliayork6852 bruh I feel you I had to take my center console apart 3 times I waited till it got dark but once you disconnect the over drive you just gotta pull up I was hesitant because I didn’t want to break anything but you should be goof
@@Jwash3 lol what actually ended up happening was my overdrive cord got stuck in the corner of the handle and made it absolutely impossible for me to get it off without breaking it. I found a mustang thread on a forum about someone who was able to fix the issue with the spring because my button just won’t work because of the spring! About to get started praying for the best
The replacement I found is too wide…..
You may have to trim it to fit. I’ve had several that were perfect and other that are too wide.
@@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC I did just makes me worry I’ll have to do it again
The original replacement I did 6 years ago (when I could only find the part for 300 dollars) I made from a notebook and it last till now so that worked
Cut it down to size
2005 Mustang GT Same Problem,I'm going to use same binder plastic fix here in your video,and attach the gear indicator strip ( Red strip ) and attach it to the binder piece with melted zip tie 😊😊
Good tutorial, but gosh there’s so much cheap chinsy brittle plastic in that whole shifter & console assembly. What a cheap & awful design by Ford, they tend to do much better than this with their interior quality.
