Informative video. You identified several GT clues that are certainly valid and helpful. A few other clues I would add to the conversation would be the fog light functionality. Making sure the switch is in the proper location on the dash and when activated, the fog lights, dash lights and taillights should illuminate. After market wiring will not sequence the same. In addition, pulling the rear seat bottom to inspect for the dual exhaust hanger reinforcement plates with appropriate hardware is very telling. Also, pulling the frame rail plugs inside of the trunk and doing a finger sweep toward the rear of the car will reveal if the hanger reinforcement inside of the frame rail is present. If there is no metal "wall" inside, it is not a factory GT. Lastly, the brake line mounting bracket should be installed higher and more toward the driver's side than a standard mustang to clear the dual exhaust. Thanks again!

That's how it has to be. Examine, research and get advice. Do not be fooled; excellent video. Thanks.
