well in nsw you have to have the p plate displayed clearly on the exterior of the car, inside the window is not acceptable. so I've heard anyway

Funny..
I have an EA, and didn't like the factory lights or garnish at all..

So I went for ED with some mods.

I like it... dunno how it'd look on a darker coloured car though..

Shame you're not in WA, I have two sets of EA lights here I'm not using.

hmmm, i like the black around the plate.. but don't think it would work on mine as the color is too light..

The ED one is so much nicer than the EA.. and the contour of the EA lights is kinda lame..

Hey Mr stalker

If you see anyone selling one of the ford badges like on your garnish. (the clearing Fairmont version I mean) point them my way.. I have two and both are in crap condition with some separating between the clear and the base on either side of the ford logo...

(forgive for hijacking thread briefly)

well i don't think i am going to go with the EA tail lights as i have just got a set and they don't fit in, i would have to go at my car with an angle grinder to get them in. i agree that the EB tail lights look better, im not sure how to put the reverse lights into the bumper but.... any previous experience or tips to go about this?
