I know this subject has been done to death, but when I was looking about 18 months ago there were quite a number of useful threads on the subject, but when I look now there is not much, hence my post.

I want to replace the square rear lights on my '98 model with the lights used on the post '99 models. I am not keen on some of the aftermarket 'bling bling' options. There was a place in North London which sold the fibreglass moulding, but can't find the details. Does anyone know who sells them now?

I guess the light units have to be bought separately. I think I need about 6 or 8 units at 50 quid each, does that sound right?

I need to get the back resprayed so this would be a good time to change them.

Thanks

Also thinking of fitting these. Do they just plug straight into the existing connector or is there some re-wiring involved also ?

Cheers,

Chris

Mine just plugged straight in - the standard fit lights are from a mk3 fiesta, so these are the same fitting.
