Spring Wash & New Corner Lights


Recommended Posts

It's been a long winter, but nice weather here today. I came home from work washed the car and installed my new chrome front turn signal lenses with Stealth bulbs today. I thought they looked good so I had to share a few pictures. Thanks Trevor for the tech advice. Dave

Those lights look good on white. How easy was the install?

Thanks for the compliments. Love that clean look! On the install, I've talked to people who have accessed the lights from ground level. It's a tight fit for me so I used a lift and they were much easier to get at. Here is a link with some good pictures that show the install. This is essentially the procedure I used.

That's how I did mine but without the lift.

Very nice and just the style that I was looking for!

 

Vendor/Part numbers for LENSES and BULBS anyone?

 

American Muscle has these, rear lense looks correct, but the front lenses have amber on them:

Yeah..for some reason American Muscle changed the design. Mine are all clear. I bought them about 8 months ago. When I went back to the website a couple of months ago, all they had were the ones with the amber corners. Not sure why they changed. Maybe a safety issue. :shrug:

Dont kthink this is the site but I got mine from some random site cause it was getting hard to find all clear.

 

7th one down. If you look a few below this youll also find the clear rear lense

Also just a caution if youve never seen the lenses apart from the car. Dont be alarmed when you get the lenses, they are about 2 times the size of the hole. The look like there is no way they will fit but they will.

 

Oh, and make sure you get the stealth bulb if anyone installs these.

Got them, (the lenses that is), thanks for that link!

 

Now, about those "stealth" bulbs, where can I find those?

I have to admit, for a white car :stirpot: , they do look good. :hysterical:

 

 

BTW, if you're lookng for me, I'll be in the garage polishing, polishing, and polishing again for our local 45th bash tomorrow. Thank goodness for swirl remover. Gotta love the black. :beerchug:

Dave, car looks great. Tires and wheels soon?

 

For those looking for the clear, I had trouble finding them as well. I bought 2 sets off eBay for about $45.00 each and then had to get the bulbs separately. Both sets came from Ziza lighting out of Norton, Ohio. Very pleased with their quick shipping and the product. I haven't checked eBay recently, but might be worth your time to do a search "Mustang clear lenses" Craig

 

here you go.....sorry, I don't know how to do a tiny URL

Hi Craig,

I have the wheels but no tires yet. I was hoping to have everything installed by now, but had about $,1500 in unforseen home repairs this spring so on hold for now. We'll be in SC the first week of May for a few days. Hopefully we can get together. I want to talk hood scoop replacement with you. Dave

Reino,

I got my lenses from MrBodyKit.com. I have seen on other mustang forums that some people have had trouble with them or their products. They are okay but not a perfect fit to factory. I have a small gap in the bumper opening at the back of the lense. There was also a small gap with the factory lenses, but smaller. I'd say factory was 1/4" gap and is about 1/2" with the new ones. It still looks okay but may bug others. Maybe tekheavy or TJClark can weigh in on how theirs fit the bumper opening.

I just checked mine. Small gap, maybe 1/4" or less at the back of the lens. I don't remember how well the originals fit.

I understand...Let me know about your trip down. Right now I know I will be in NY May 1-4th. Otherwise, rest of week looks good. Tell your better-half hello. Craig

 

BTW--Evan has always been about a 1/4 inch off.... :hysterical:
