Kick Panel

How do I get this bad boy off? Gotta get the computer code so AM will ship my tuner

On the passenger side of your car there is a plastic panel that runs along the bottom of the door.

Pull it up gently on one side until you hear the clips release. After that is removed you should be looking at a pinch weld inside of the car that was under neath of it. There is the kick panel in front of that.

There is a long body pin that holds it in place as well as some clips similar to that on the piece you just removed. Pull outwards a little bit until you can get a grip on the body pin and remove it. then slide the panel forward.

You should be able to see your computer code from there.

Thanks RFM, repped. I'll get the code tomorrow

Without removing the sill along the bottom of the door?
And I ordered the SCT SF3 with the free tunes. Gotta order a tune before they'll ship my tuner

I guess you could bend it but I didn't want to take a chance on breaking anything when I got my code.

Good luck!

So I got tired of waiting for tomorrow to get here. I battle the cold and went out to get my code. Like you RFM, I didn't want to break anything and I couldn't get the panel bent in a way that I could see behind it (without using a mirror or something) so I took the sill off. Go figure, Ford used those damn clips that come off the piece you want them to stay with. Oh well, got my code! I'm quite happy

So I sent in my order form for a tune like they wanted me to. I've got gears on the way but I didn't add them in the tune because it might be a while before they're installed and I didn't add the 93 octane because I want to replace the spark plugs/wires/coil pack and fuel filter before I do that. But I didn't see anything about wheel size. Will that be something I can change myself with the tuner? (I'm already not running stock size wheels and I'm getting even bigger ones)

You can change on the tunes for the gears, if you get them installed, you can also change the speedo for different wheel sizes i believe with their tunes you should be able to adjust both.
