Can any forum members advise me as to where I can source the Red coloured tail/brake light globes for my (LV) XR5 at a sensible price ? They have a unique pin pattern (slight off set from 180 degrees) and are made by Philips. FoMoCo Aust are quoting $35 each for a replacement . Any advice or suggestions eagerly received.

Hey Casabonka - I have tried eBay and got two hits - one in the UK and one in the Netherlands. I was hoping for an Oz source for these - but looks like I will need to head offshore unless I hear otherwise.

$24 each could work - save me the hassle of going O/S. Let me know who I can talk to down here. |

Not sure mate....you'd have to speak to a dealer and see if they can match for you....maybe chat with one of the other xr5 guys locally....if you jump on fordxr5turbo.com and see who can recommend a local dealer happy to match, otherwise I can ship to you...probably about $8 to express post to you....at a guess....
