Head light and tail light resources

[MinnesotaMM]

I am currently looking around for a good place to get some head lights and tail lights for my Marauder... first off what ford/lincoln/mercury lights are compatible? What websites would you recommend? And what bulbs are the best in your opinion?

Pm fastblackmerc if you want to send your fogs to him so he can mod them for a hid kit. If that's to much time and money for you just get some silver star bulbs or led just for the look. Silverstars from eBay and led from vleds.com

I can modify your foglights with HIDs and also can supply a HID kit for the headlights.

Remember where you mounted the ballasts? I told you to remount them UNDER the radiator cover, specifically to the radiator support. Mounting them on top of the cover exposes them to excessive moisture......

Was the relay secured to the radiator support?

try www.discountcarlights.com they were the cheapest I found for headlights and I looked for a long time. They shipped quick too. I paid 66.81 & 99.79 for the two headlights. Much cheaper than elsewhere.

I could only find incandescent bulbs at rockauto.com for the Marauder. Where are the HIDs?

One of the lips and the collar that hold the bulb on on my passenger side are broken... did the headlight you ordered come with the collar? Or do I have to hit up a junkyard? I'm guessing any ford that has 9007 bulbs has those... The RockAuto description says without bulbs or sockets, I'm guessing they mostly all come from the same "Replacement" brand...

eBay has alot of replacement Marauder headlight assemblies (look for the black reflector inside the assembly). If the assemblies come with bulbs the retaining rings should be there also. I'd replace both headlight assemblies so they look the same.

I assume the bulb and retaining ring were included.

Yes i know the retaining ring was, i have HIDs so i dont remeber if it came with a bulb or not.
