Thanks for the parts source info!

Ouch $130 each I guess its a small price to pay to have your car look about 8 years newer, but holy smokes that's a tough one for the old student budget.

Are the ebay lenses crap for pre-98's as well? I have seen a lot of people recommend staying away from them, but I think most of them have SVT's or 98+. Wasnt sure if that applied to pre's as well.

I like your footwell lighting and gauges. My buddy's M3 has an amber light that gives a soft glow on the shifter/console area. I really like that touch and always thought it would be cool to do an led there. Just a soft glow, nothing overkill. Yours look really tastefull!

Blu Fuz got some off Ebay and said they were great. Those are what I'll be getting. Anything is better than the yellow stock ones.

Actually that is the price for both of them(driver side and passenger side), last time I checked.

Edit: yep, thats the price you pay for both of the headlights. $130 is pretty pricy, but look how much a 98+ tour has to spend on both of their headlights.

Thanks for the complements!

Check the link earlier in the thread. They cost $130 for both of them at the team ford parts website. Its a good deal if you ask me.

Nice mods, but those guages seem like they would be very very bright when driving at night.

Oops... sorry about that, I glanced too quickly at that page before running my mouth. You're right, $130 for both. That's not too bad! Definitely looks better x $1,000... well worth it!

They are pretty bright, but I don't mind it. They were cheap so when they burn out, I'll replace them.
