Hermosillo Employee trying to smuggle himself across.

I have the same issue w/ my 2008 SE v6. I place a little pressure on the side of the seat, and it stops. I think its either the track, or the hinge for the seat back itself. I'll try everyones suggestion, but please, keep us posted on what finally does the trick! Good luck to ya. I may just wait for the next gen Fusion to arrive and trade up. =)

Do it gently, and you won't break them. Ive had mine off twice.

I found that removing the window switch assy, and placing a piece of foam between it, and the bracket it screws to, does the trick as well. Helps absorb the vibs. But MPLS idea above sounds "sound" to me! :beerchug:

I was thinking of doing the same thing. You might want to swing by your nearest body shop and see what they would charge to plug and paint.

Hitches are for truck. Either that, or get a horse.

Satelite Radio, thats why. Its a oombo thing. Besides, if you ever had to a replace that rear window w/ a defroster and radio antena (however you spell that) would be mucho expensive.

I have them on mine too! Check out my pics! REDALRT is my user name. I highly recommend the clear if you haven't applied the tinted headlamp film or the tinted tail light film. If you have, I would go with the "Smoked" side markers, also available on EBAY. I like minge clear, PLUS, I used the "Mirror Signal Bulbs" in the headlamp housing to complete the Crystal look. Take a peek!

Boy was I mistaken. Yeah, there is definately more to it than just the module. Not only is a harness missing, but you would have to change the the harness connector into the blower motor and its speed controller. The electronic automatic temperature control module needs inputs from not only an ambient temperature sensor and in car sensor, but it also needs input from the sensor for the auto headlamps, which would be located in the middle of the front defroster grille. You would need to purchase this sensor because the electronic AC needs this to gauge solar input into the cabin! If you want, you could drill a hole into the existing grille, or purchase the specific defroster grille with the light sensor socket. So you would need to either buy the harness, or create your own, and then modify the blowers connectors from manual speed control. Then buy 3 addtional sensors. Its just not feasable after looking through the wiring diagrams and service manual #2. I bought an EATC on ebay for 50 bucks and I wont be able to use it! :banghead: At least I bought it for only 50 bucks........hope this helps.

Is there a seperate fuse you could pull? Or a harness you could undo in the bumper cover from underneath the car?

From what it looks like, yes. I found the ETAC w/o Heated Seats option, and I know there is a Temp Senor needed. On the back of the Electronic one, is a orange socket, and a white socket. The Manual SE trim has the orange socket w/ the voltage regulator on the back for speed control. What I would like to konw is if the white socket is for the temp senor portion. If so, then it shouldn't be a problem to swap. A sensor is pretty cheap at Fordparts.com (10 bucks). Anyone able to confirm?

dude, don't do it. These just don't look right on our cars. save ur money.

why couldn't one use the cloth seats? From what I know, it really wouldn't hurt? Anybody out there put in the factory heaters on cloth inserts/full cloth seats? I have an 08 SE Sprt Apr Pkg featuring the cloth inserts and, I don't see why this couldn't be done. It would cost around $200 per side from what I have priced at Fordparts.com
