Post by: Kiwi428 on September 13, 2013, 12:17:56 AM

Some time ago I saw RT- Motorsport advertising on eBay a set of these lights. I tried searching there site but it was for car sales and wondered if anyone knows where yo can get a new set?

Many of the Mustang parts houses (found them at Virgina and NPD) appear to carry them. Just need to do a little search

They are similar to the 65-68 type but they are different in material and some other details. Same design were used in the 71-73 Cougar the later (at least 83 Cougar) and a number of other Ford products

     The units are the same the wire harness/connections are different.  65-66 are individual male female connections.  69 is a  male/female dual plug.  Brian

Originals are pot metal & the reproductions I have seen are plastic. However, this could have changed.

Original 69's were metal - 70's went to plastic.
I think Ford used some lights like these in the 80's.

My recent purchase from NPD were Scott Drake units, and are pot metal. I switched to LED light bulbs to keep the thin plastic lenses from turning yellow.

Mid-80's T bird had quarter lights that were very similar if I recall correctly
