Custom Built Headlight Cluster Reply #15 – June 23, 2010, 12:23:26 AM these are kinda what I'm thinking about chopping up. They might be a bit small, but I think i could find some way to make them (or another version) work as long as i can get the lens to fit right and of course the wires working right.Plan, is to mold a once pice replacement for the 3 lens cluster and have them spaced accordingly with the black out lens covers only. No more py yellow or kinda clear lenses.(someone had suggested the OEM lens helps to focus the light...i personally feel that it assists in scattering the light in all directions rather than focusing it...anyone know for sure) Quote Selected

Custom Built Headlight Cluster Reply #17 – June 25, 2010, 12:20:50 AM Fox Cougars deserve the round headlamp look like the 71-76 models had! I can totally see it, but coming up with a workable design is the challenge. If you could find a set of clear headlamp covers made for the 87-88 Cougar then may be easier to install a set of round lamps behind them. You could even do smoked covers if you had to and cut round holes in them to pass light through. Retain the outer corner lamp, remover the inner parking lamp which will give you room to play with round lamp space. I suppose to you could modify some plexiglass cut to size and plce it as a cover over a set of round lamps.I swear though it would work best with some smoked headlamp covers made for the car. You can do something interesting like repeat the grille pattern with vertical lines out of chrome tape or paint while allowing a full circle reveal of the round headlamps. Quote Selected
