As some of you may know, Ford has had problems building the replacement bulb for the 97-98 Mark's with HID. Well they came out with a new kit recently. The kit consists of both the left and right complete headlamp assemblies with all new bulbs. Below is the part # and price, remember, this is for BOTH lamps and bulbs.

7R9Z-13008-A List $729.07 LVC $542.86, S&H is $15.

Are headlamp assemblies available for 1993 MKIII's? How much please.

It's no secret that these kits are out. They've been out for a while. The problem is availability. How many do you have on hand ready to ship?

Looks like there is nothing for a while. Seems those are still on backorder until sometime in September. But not only that, they have about 450 on backorder already, and only show shipping out like 19 kits. If someone does need a kit real bad, I did locate 2 sets at another dealer.

Thats good pricing for Gen I headlights. I think I paid $209 a while ago and THAT was a steal.

And to clarify, the Gen III housings are HALOGEN, not HID :( But converting to after-market HIDS will be a lot easier with these housings.

From what I know, the 1997-1998 Mark VIII's all had HID lights, it was the 1995-1996 model that had both halogen and HID was an upgrade option.

What Unity was getting at, is the the new kit from ford is a Halogen conversion. Ford is not carrying the HID bulbs any more. This kit includes housing with bulbs and a new SCIL module, so you don't have the Headlight warning message.

Exactly what I was saying.

This is good and bad. Its bad because there is no longer a HID option for Gen IIs that is OEM. Its good because one can now covert to HID with these units VERY easily since they use standard base bulbs. Not that is legal anyway, but before the kits were heavily modified and may have been far from exact and more costly. Now one can get any kit form anywhere for cheap.

It's bad for Gen2s. But at least your cars came with HIDs.

Us Gen1s who suffered with the lack of headlamps and paid BIG BUCKS to get HIDs now find themselves abandoned...

again. :mad:

I bought my set of hallogen headlamps from team ford for my 95 over a year ago and they still look great! $400 bucks is what I paid as well. Bill is a good guy.

Yes I can get those for you.
