yellow headlights, who makes the best replacements?

92sspnotchback · August 25th, 2007, 01:20 AM

Hey, guys I just bought a 92 coupe, I have been looking for a v8 coupe for a while, but anyway. The headlights are yellow and nasty looking (like most of the old headlights on fox's) I am wanting to replace the headlights, markers and turn signals. Who makes the best replacements? I have bought a bunch of JUNK in the past that are said to be for a specific vehicle and they fit like a** . Should I get just the lenses, capsule, or ?? Any help would be appreciated.

I've never seen just the lenses for sale.
I bought a complete 6 piece set at Blue Oval Industries a few years ago and the two headlights sucked, the inside reflective coating crumbled up and peeled off both lights within a few months and I only drove the car a few times. The turn signals and parking lights were fine and still look good now. I notice they also have a kit for a decent price with the generic marker lights but with OEM Ford headlights. I now know why!
I need a new set for both of my cars so I need some advice as well or I'll try the kit from BOI with the OEM Ford headlights for $109 + shipping.

50 resto headlights arent the best I have seen people buy them and they end up getting water in them after a couple years but mabey other people on here have had better luck with them.

Hey 92, Listen, if the headlights work fine, then just take a vinegar/water solution to them and the yellow dinge disolves away. Not in one stroke, but spend about 30 minutes rubbing them with that sollution and you'de be amazed at how the old brilliant white returns. Just tryin to save ya some money...

Most salvage yards around here wet sand them and then buff them out. I've had it done and it looks brand new. Better than buying brand new ones.
