Wanted to post some pics of the vent shades that I got this past week. I just recently got my 86 FHP Mustang and have started getting parts together. My car had the vent shades but they were long since gone. I looked for the mustang one but as all of you know they are hard to find and very expensive when you do. I looked around and after a liffle homework I was able to determine thst the 81-87 Escort 2 door has basicly the same window dementions as the Mustang. I found a set on Ebay for 24 dollars with free shipping and got them the other day. These fit perfectly, all I need is to drill the holes in them to match my exsisting holes and they will be perfect. If anybody is intrested the Vent shade part # is f203-2 and there are a couple of sets on ebay right now. I was told by vent shade that several shades they made were the same for several different cars but given different part numbers to seperate the car models I am very pleased and only spent 24 dollars! Keep in mind that my car is not restored and I need new weatherstripping.

No problem guys happy to share, im sure that the Escort ones are not that plentiful but a lot cheaper for someone that can snag them up when they find them. There were 2 sets on Eday last night for 24 dollars with free shipping.

There's a set on eBay right now but it's for a 4 door. So it's a 4 piece set and a little more....think it was around 33 bucks plus shipping??

Edit: found the link....http://m.ebay.com/itm/320859017608?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1

The 4 door set will not work the front doors are shorter than the 2 door model, has to be for a 2 door escort.

That's good to know!! I was wondering but I thought surely they'd be the same....haha....

Disregard my eBay link!! :D
