I ordered from Amazon a 4-pack of LED strips (18.9 in. long) that were (supposed to be) fully sealed in clear flexible plastic (or at least that's what the description said) for $11.99.

Hello All, Do you know of any way to obtain a (round) trunk key other than having a locksmith picking the trunk lock? I never had the key card that comes with the new Mark VIII as I wasn't the first owner. Called a couple of local Las Vegas Lincoln dealers and they told me that '93 Mark VIII is...

Hello all, Need your help in finding the STI wire on my 93 M8 base, stock (Gen 1). I developed a CEL and need to scan for trouble codes. I need to go the old school route and use the CEL or a voltmeter/test light to scan for stored code(s). In order to do so I need to short this STI to pin 2 of...

After a long time of dutiful service, the passenger seat on my 93 model will not go fore/aft neither using the switch, nor automatically when the seatback is folded forward. It will tilt up though and the seatback reclines, and the lumbar works, so I have power at the switch/module. The seat is...

Hello M8-ers: I'm considering four high performance tires 265/50R16 for my M8. The diameter is exactly the same as the stock 225/60R16 tires, just 40 mm wider (20 mm wider on each side vs. the original tires may not seem much, but they may rub). Anyone has/had experience with this size tires on...
