1966 Mustang Upgrades - LED lights, horns, headlights

The Yellow K-code Mustang gets some nice safety upgrades! These are some of our favorite vintage Mustang mods to do to increase the safety factor. I show you exactly how to install the full LED light kit we got from CJ Pony Parts, as well as brighter Sylvania headlights, and some super loud Hella horns. These upgrades are subtle, simple, and extremely effective!

Nice and easy! It's hard to miss this beautiful '66, but these upgrades will hopefully make it more noticeable for the less engaged drivers along the way.

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks! We like the peace of mind for sure.

[@1stguageinc409]

Nice upgrades, but the #1 needed upgrade is MIA. We old car enthusiasts really need a campaign to add Headrests. Everybody that drives a antique car or truck without headrests should consider that being rear-ended is something you probably can have no control over. (Only scenario is you see it coming, and have escape route and time. Yea..thats never gonna happen) If your rear-ended without Headrests, best case is badly sprained neck and weeks, maybe months of pain. Worst case is broken neck, paralysis or death. Yes i get headrests look out of place ... but we need a campaign to delete the 'Not Original, looks bad' with 'Good Idea, looks great'. Save the necks! When you hear tires screeching behind you, it's too late.

[@Old_Dans_Travels]

You are doing a great job on this restomod. It still looks original, but has many modern touches. I especially like the updated manual transmission. Keep feeding us these great videos! Thank you!

[@QualityClassics]

Thank you very much! We're enjoying it. Definitely got more cool videos coming.

[@RealDapperDude]

Howdy. Thanks very much for some great ideas. I just picked up a '65 coupe, same color, assembled in San Jose in May, 1965. I have to add back up lights after the valence comes in, and dual exhausts. I'm not likely to drive at night, but the bright back ups, expecially, will be very nice, given my vision.

[@bandagefreak]

"Hella loud!" Luvvit. Not a fan of LED anything, I'm afraid - I find it harsh and largely unnecessary - but then I'm an old fart. I'd LOVE to see that Trans Am up close and to hear more about it!

[@QualityClassics]

The Trans Am is special in so many ways. It has been owned by preservation minded owners and remains in fantastic condition, video coming soon... hopefully you have subscribed to our channel.

[@bandagefreak]

Yup, I've subscribed since you first started on KZbin - I love the show! Keep up the great work :@)

[@QualityClassics]

@@bandagefreak Wow! that's awesome. Thanks!

[@samspace81]

Great tips to help put together a safe driver! Thanks guys

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks!

[@PucKchucker67]

Great job guys I really love the way you just do enough to a classic car. Keep it classic but a bit more drivable is perfect IMO

[@QualityClassics]

We agree! Thanks!

[@1stintegrityoffice206]

Very nice, love the mustang and the trans am in back, Would have liked to see a before and after

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks! Yeah, I thought about that later! lol

i’m 20yrs old and bought a 65 mustang last april. i’m totally going to do this. Thank you!

[@gangsterlean7300]

How has it been?

[@fairyboy444]

I haven’t done this yet, the thing i’m going to do next is sound deadening the car

[@gangsterlean7300]

@@fairyboy444 lol why would u do that? And do you use the car as a daily?

[@fairyboy444]

gammer 1987 yea, i’ve been using it as a daily

[@fairyboy444]

gammer 1987 have had the engine rebuilt for now, and i plan on swapping it within a few years or when i get the money

[@scotchbudmeister9018]

Very nice upgrade!

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks!

[@jaco5187]

I daily a 1965 Mustang straight 6. I love the simplicity, but I'm scared to death half the time. I def need to upgrade some of the safety items.

[@QualityClassics]

I highly recommend.

[@fairyboy444]

i daily drive the same

[@quagmiredavis4117]

I add a third brake light in back window its a no brainer to add

[@JohnSandate]

Outstanding

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks!

[@B1Springfield]

Wish it was easy to find those kind of setups for other Ford cars. Maybe it’s time to get another 66 mustang lol

[@markshalloup3569]

New subscriber. Love your channel! On the halogen headlight upgrade I'd recommend running the headlights thru relay harness. Halogens pull too many amps compared to the old sealed beams. Headlight switch gets 🔥. A buddy of mine learned this the hard way. These relay harnesses can be found on ebay/Amazon $30

[@BPattB]

Could you have at least showed us how to run the sequential's if there were any different?

[@raycano4896]

excellent video! well done!

[@briansredd]

I bought a set of the Sylvania headlights last year & they really don't seem to fit very well. Had to pull them off again yesterday to run a new firewall to headlight harness. Looking at the Scott Drake offerings now

[@hguerra8464]

What did you end up going with? Looking to upgrade to LEDs on a 66 mustang

[@ET74019]

After owning a car with led headlights I won’t hesitate to put these on a classic mustang along with 3 point seat belt...if I ever get my hand on a mustang like this it has to be safe on the road because it won’t be sitting in my garage

[@peterossi6840]

Great video!

[@QualityClassics]

Thanks :)

[@edmusick2894]

Hi, what gauge wire for the horn? Thanks

[@gapgap1038]

Can't actually find the kit you have used on the CJ Pony site, have they stopped selling it?

[@OldManFrank]

*I was so against upgrading my headlights on my 76' Camaro; I am so glad I installed my LED Halo headlights; yeah, having red Halo's is cool for IG but, the LED headlights are like night and day when driving at night - I CAN SEE!* @camaronado

[@hguerra8464]

Did your LED headlights come with a special harness or did you have to install load resistors? What brand did you go with? Looking to do LEDs on my 66 mustang

[@geraldjordan2230]

Where did you purchase the hella horn?

Love the car and upgrades. What size wheel and tire combo do you have on there?

[@QualityClassics]

I'll check on that.

[@SKindianSpringfield]

that would be great thanks

[@SKindianSpringfield]

were you able to find out anything? thanks,

[@Deucealive75]

@@QualityClassics Would like to know what wheel and tire sizes are on the yellow Mustang.

[@wolfthornhawkridge5705]

Awesome video, as always. I wonder if you could tell the tire and rim size you have on the springtime K code. They look really sharp!

[@QualityClassics]

Sure! I'll get back with ya on that.

[@wolfthornhawkridge5705]

Also, just watched a video where you have one of the Revology mustangs in your hangar. Can’t wait to see more on that.

[@Deucealive75]

Wondering the same thing. I want to go with 15x7's. Not sure what tire size. 225/60 would be nice but may rub in front.

[@torres870rem]

By the time this videos are up. The car is gone. 🤦
