Get the OEM Ford ones... The Repop ones suck!

Go Ford OE all the way with those units, you'll never regret it!

They are very similar but not right... There is a metal deflector inside the LMR ones that fell off 2 weeks after I installed them and is to large to pull through the bulb hole so it was just rattling around in the healidht housing.

They are good for a non-show or restoration quality car but I will always from now on go with OEM Ford units.



Not nearly as bright a picture as Michaels but this is the deluxe kit installed that day the picture was taken.
