Anyone know the Ford part number for one of these? Trying to get one from my local Ford dealer but apparently it depends on the year/body style of Mk 4 Escort so the part number would be easier.

Or is there anywhere else that I can get one online?

TIA
Ted

Yep, checked today and realised that it's not upside down. It's the offside that I need. Ford parts bloke reckoned there are different types.

Be careful,
There are versions with/without all the lights wired!
Luckily I only needed the lens part.

I've got a Lucas part number from Fernhurst. It is possible to just get the outer lens then rather than the whole unit?

Ted, try searching on eBay for 'escort lens'

I got seven results but the link I tried posting won't work for some reason.

In most cases, if you buy the rear lamp unit it will be the lenses and reflector unit, but not the lamp holder, so you should just be able to just bolt in the new unit and then clip the existing bulb holder back into it. I don't think you'll find the lenses themselves as a separate component as they're glued to the backing/reflector part.
