    roof mount antenna

    VG Shark Fin Got mine from VG (J4 paint) all most 2 years ago and I am very happy with it. Easy to install and I don't see any lose of Sirus signal at all. No one has said anything about the foam gasket, don't think anyone has even noticed the shark fin at all.

    13 Exp Lawsuit

    I tried a CO detector and got several readings when held close to the center console vents and AC on high. 113PM and once 133PPM But when I put the detector in a cup holder it was 30 PPM and under. So for now all vents are pointed away from our faces. Is Ford working on a fix?

    Clicking Noise inside Dashboard

    Yup! Zero is correct IMHO. I had a 2002 that had cracking coming from the drivers door. Turned out that sitting with that side to the sun for 8 hours of Arizona sun heated up the plastic snaps that held the trim on. I didn't know until 3 snaps had broke and the trim came loose.
