Yes,I still need one.Like I stated above,I can buy,trade,or a little of both.I just need a really good lens.If there are a few light surface scratches,I can polish that out,but cracks are a big no-no.I have seen lights with the tiny little cracks that appear to be "in" the plastic.Not cool.I appreciate you guys a lot.

I just got home from Gulfport,I have some good and bad news,I did find a taillight unit for your car but,the bottom red piece is cracked.I couldnt tell much about the clear part,it looked ok but,not sure if you would want it.I will be going to there other place in the morning in Mobile, Al.they aint but,8.99 for lens and 15.99 for assembly.If I cant find one there I will check back with the others.I dont know why just about every thunderbird or cougar taillight lens is broke or cracked(all but,later 90s-I seen plenty of them).
Also about the gentleman on here thats looking for a the EEC for a 86 thunder bird.they have a 87 v6.will that work?they run 25.99 with a 25% core.(I beleive its a ECU that hes talking about-?)thats what I can see in this price list.I hope this helps in some way.I will look more tomorrow.kenny

Kenny,As long as the clear part is good,grab it.The red reflectors on mine are fine and I can swap them.I only need the lens,the whole assembly isn't necessary.THANKS !!!!!!!

As far as the computer,I actually have no idea if they swap out.I wish I could tell you.

Mine has a crack on the part that goes above the license plate.
But it's underneath. I got pics if you want.

Grab the lens,and carefully pull.It'll separate from the housing fairly easily.It has an adhesive holding it on.No problem removing them.Be careful,I pull them off from the outside gently.The thinner part of the lens,over the tag,can be a little delicate.

I'm guessing the part that's broken on mine is not part of the lens then.
