• 2014 Ford Mustang Roof Rack Recommendation
• The Yakima 54" Tracks for Roof Racks # Y01127 are somewhat universal in that they can be installed on a lot of different applications for you to then add a roof rack to, but they do need a pretty flat and level surface to install on which is why we will need to look at a different solution for your 2014 Ford Mustang. For your application I recommend the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B which uses powerful vacuum cups (rated for 210 pull strength each) to secure to your roof....

• LED Head Lights For 1969 Mustang
• The Rampage Headlight Conversion kit # RA5081126 is the correct size light. 5-3/4 inch round is what your 1969 Mustang had from the factory. This is just the housing, you can grab the H4 bulb at any automotive store around town and just use the original bezel that's holding the current light in place. You can use any off-road H4 bulb up to 130 watts as long as you have the correct amount of power feeding the unit. Standard H4 bulbs will need 55 watts for low beam and 65 for the high beam. Be...

• Compatibility of a Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Carrier # TH934XTR with Genesis Onyx Bikes
• This Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Carrier # TH934XTR can handle 150 lbs of bikes on the carrier. As long as your bikes weigh less than that, you should have no problem at all using this rack to transport your Genesis Onyx and Huffy Butterscotch bike. I would recommend that you put the heavier of the two bikes on the cradle that is as close as possible to the back side of the vehicle. This will put the least amount of strain from leverage on the rack and your hitch. I attached a review...

• Does Curt Hitch # C11041 Fit 1994 Ford Mustang with 5.0 Liter V8
• The Curt hitch # C11041 that you referenced does fit 1994 Ford Mustangs, but only those with a V6 engine. It will not fit your Mustang with a 5.0 liter V8. If you would like to carry bikes on your Mustang, we have two approved trunk racks that will fit as long as you don't have a convertible or a GT model. You could use the Saris Guardian for 2 bikes # SAR93FR or for 3 bikes # SAR43FR. You could also explore a roof rack on your mustang to carry bikes. We have some available.

• Recommended Hitch and Wiring for a 2017 Mustang Convertible
• The Draw-Tite # 24928 is designed for your 2017 Ford Mustang Convertible. This is a 1 1/4 inch Class I hitch, so it is limited to a maximum of 2,000 pounds towing and 200 pounds of tongue weight. Unfortunately, there is not a larger 2 inch option available for the Mustang line. You can add a hitch expander, like the Brophy # HTAD, to get up to the 2 inch opening, but these do cut your tongue weight in half, so are not highly recommended. That being said, there are some great bike racks...

• Will the ThuleOutWay Platform Bike Rack # TH65JV Fit on a 2011 Mustang with Satellite Antenna
• The Thule OutWay Platform-Style 2 Bike Carrier, item # TH65JV, is recommended for your vehicle by the manufacturer, but my contact there said that they were not able to test vehicles with the satellite radio antenna, that you mentioned, on the trunk of the vehicle. You may experience issues with any of the truck mount racks that we carry, because of the antenna. Your best option would probably be to add a trailer hitch, like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch, item # 24863, along...

• Trunk-Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for 2005 Ford Mustang Convertible with OEM Rear Spoiler
• You are correct that vehicles like your 2005 Ford Mustang Convertible that have an OEM rear spoiler can pose a challenge to the fit of a trunk-mount bike rack. Fortunately, the folks at Hollywood Racks have designed racks that are specifically intended for such applications. The Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 2 Bike Carrier # HRF2 and the 3-bike version # HRF2-3 are designed to work with such vehicles without putting stress on the spoiler, which really is not intended to bear any weight.

• What is the Maximum Speed Rating for Thule Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains
• The recommended maximum speed rating for the Thule Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains # TH2004205117 is 30-40 mph. This is fairly standard for tire chains. With your aftermarket tires these chains are going to be your best bet since they only require 9 mm of clearance between the tires and your 2006 Ford Mustang. You're going to want to make sure you have the space before purchasing anything. Also, be sure to consult the vehicle owner's manual for specific information on...

• While the Curt part # C11312 has not been tested to fit your 2008 Ford Mustang with aftermarket exhaust like what you have there is a chance it could still fit. If your aftermarket exhaust retains the factory dimensions and routing (or close to it) then it could work. I did a little research online and was able to determine that most people were able to install this hitch with aftermarket exhaust. The most popular 2 bike hitch mounted bike rack we sell with other owners of 2008 Ford Mustangs...

• Will the NEO2 Bike Rack Fit a 2014 Ford Mustang with Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch
• Going with a bike rack that is a direct fit to the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24863 for your 2014 Ford Mustang is a good idea. The problem with adapters is that the use of one will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent because the additional length of the adapter puts more stress on the receiver. The NEO2, # B01748, will fit the Draw-Tite hitch directly and it weighs just 15 pounds by itself so there will be minimal stress on the hitch. I have included a link...
