I have a current unscheduled order in for a Premium ER. I also have access to Vehicle Visibility.

Looking through my order details I found a recent entry. "Signature Light Removal". There is a Premium at my dealership in front of my order scheduled to be built in September. This order also has it. There is a GT after mine. It also has it. In the Order Guide, Signature Lighting is referenced under the headlamps.

Get ready for more decontenting on the fly.

Prices (likely) going up, items being removed. Is the signature lighting the light up badge or the puddle lights?

I'm not 100%, but I believe it's the daytime running LED in the headlamp.

I would be very annoyed if the signature lighting was removed. That likely means no LED headlamps either. You’re probably going g to be stuck with crappy projector headlamps.

Unless the lights are the same and they just don't have the control chip for the signature lightning LEDs.

I would hope it isn't the projectors, or that Fords gives a big discount for the deletion. Those LED headlights are wonderful!

The Mach E Selects have Led headlamps without the signature bars.

Right. All of the existing Mach-Es have LED headlamps and taillamps. The difference with the signature headlamps is they are projector style instead of reflector style, and they have the Mustang-signature tri bar look and signal wipe animations.

This would be a real bummer. A lot of brands go with unique running lights to tie models together or define a signature look for the brand. Guess 'signature' means something else to Ford.

How much do you think this saves Ford? Maybe $40 per car? This is on the GT and & Premium trims, so they are already higher margin vehicles.

It‘s more likely related to chip or parts shortages than saving a few bucks.
