Ouch!!
I've never dealt with Mustangs Plus, so I don't know how customer friendly they are.
Question: did you order the wrong P/N?, or did they ship the wrong P/N?
I've made this type of mistake (ordered wrong P/N) and just called my supplier and explained my error. They were very helpful- I was able to return the incorrect part for credit, and ordered the correct P/N. Of course I paid both shipping charges due to my error.

I've dealt with them.
Just give them a call Monday morning and they'll make it right.

I shop there all the time. Brandon or other counter guy nicknamed "T" will hook you up and get that all straightened out. I plan on going to their show in October. U close enough to them? Or if I remember correctly u are down south?

Mustangs Plus. Great company. They will make it right. I use them almost exclusively these days.

If that is the biggest problem you have in the restoration, be happy.

Imagine how it is when the part has been shipped 8000 miles, took two weeks to get to you, and will probably cost as much as buying to ship it back! :wink:

Wow never thought about it like that. I'm glad I don't have one of those falcons that's from over there or I would be feeling the pain
