Reverse light lenses made from the original Ford tooling and with proper opaque translucency! Finally can get that “I’m too cheap/they’re too expensive” monkey off my back regarding NOS lenses! My PS has a very minor internal stress crack and when I happened across this yesterday and knew I could get 10% off on the MU holiday sale, I was all over it!
Don/WCCC, thinking you guys will want to look into getting some of these, just a thought.
Enjoy!

Fixed, posting links here is a little different.
Yep, got those on my car and they look exactly like the originals … very nice.
Those have been out for a long time, they come from Autokrafters. The only complaint is that they come out of the mould too large to fit in the housing so the put them on a grinder to make them smaller and sometimes get a little sloppy with their grinds.
Ut oh, you KNOW I’ll be on the lookout for that issue Don! Thanks for bringing to my attention.
So, if you don’t mind my asking Don, do you feel that the others (more clear) are the better of the two or you don’t want to carry both or? I wouldn’t want to use one repro that is more clear and one perfect original (not sure you can even buy one of the clear repro’s anyway). Wouldn’t want to use two repro’s either, but that is just me and because I have one perfect original and the other (also original) one that has a small internal crack. Truth is what I have currently is more than fine, I just can’t leave things alone that aren’t perfect - and that I know about!
Call Autokrafters direct and tell them a “friend” ordered a couple pairs and one pair looked better than the other and could they please hand pick a pair. Also tell them you are a prolific writer for a Cougar forum and you are wanting to do a mini article on their level of customer service. Is that too far from the truth? I think not…
I’m happy with the AK lense I received (from MU). Sanded/polished out a few imperfections but did little to nothing to the edges and they were not oversanded as received. Can’t beat the AK price of $35.xx (I paid more from MU but got the holiday discount). Best of all, it matches an OEM DS lense nearly perfectly (opaque plastic and markings), you cannot tell them apart unless you were looking at the mold parting lines under magnification with the lenses off the bezels.
