If someone could give me a breakdown on what vehicles/years it was offered, I'll keep an eye out at work for some...they've been getting in a lot of stuff lately, but it's mainly 5 year old and newer...
'98 Explorer 5.0
'20 Malibu (I know, Chevy, but, 35MPG. Let's go brandon, eh)

yeah, i checked the local yards to no avail

i found a list on coolcats......
1980-1989 Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis
1980-1982 Thunderbird/XR7
1983-1986 Thunderbird/Cougar
1983-1986 LTD/Marquis

i found those cars and they all seem to have the right part, but none of the ones i checked had the tripminder (just a clock like me :()

thanks for keeping an eye out
