WTB: Smoked side markers

[cougar1791]

Ive been looking for a pair for a little while now and can't seem to find any. Anyone have a set for sale or trade for stock ones and cash. Or know of a place to get them?

These:

aceparts - LED Bulbs/Kits > Side Repeaters > FORD ESCORT MONDEO COUGAR SIDE REPEATERS CRYSTAL BLACK - HID Kits, Xenon Bulbs, LED Bulbs, Sidelights and Interior LED bulb kits (http://www.aceparts.com/all-led-bulbs/led-side-repeaters/ford-escort-mondeo-cougar-side-repeaters-crystal-black.htm)

or these:

aceparts - LED Bulbs/Kits > Side Repeaters > Ford Escort MK6 & Mondeo side repeaters SMOKE - HID Kits, Xenon Bulbs, LED Bulbs, Sidelights and Interior LED bulb kits (http://www.aceparts.com/all-led-bulbs/led-side-repeaters/ford-escort-mk6-mondeo-side-repeaters-smoke.htm)


they have more, too, so check out the whole site... THEY ship FAST, too!

I just got a set of sidemarkers from aceparts and they do indeed ship fast. You definitely need to handle them with care though because I dropped one and it cracked with little impact. And while it's probably not noticeable by anyone other than really anal people like myself, they don't completely fill the recessed oval like the stock markers do. All in all, I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase.

Actually, fitment depends on the year of your fenders... Sounds far-fetched, but i had 3 sets of fenders hanging around and they fit perfect on one set of early 99 fenders, but had gaps in the late 99 and 01 fenders...

Could someone get a picture of how big of a gap there is?

I'll snap some pics when I get a chance. My car was made during June of '99, so I guess that's considered late.

Yes, cut-off date is like May 5th or something...

The gap is just enough for the lights to pop out on their own if you hit a nice bump... its literally less than a 1/4", but enough to cause an issue, or at the very least they won't be centered in there...

I'm really OCD about things like this, so I might end up going back to the stock orange. The clear sidemarkers don't look as good as I expected them to with the silver. Smoked might be better.
