I am in need of taillights for my 81 wagon. Found these on ebay as reproductions. Anyone here bought from this guy? What do you think, should I hold out for originals?

I seen these also but i am holding out for originals. If you get them post up what you think about them.
Those look nice. Buy a set and tell him that wag reverse lights and box taillights would be great too.

Had a buddy purchase a set of 79-83 Ford LTD Crown Victoria Taillights from that seller. He said the quality was good.

LTD taillights and hatch fit. There was something fiddley about the hinges that I don't recall, but I had an '84 or 85 LTD hatch on my 80 Fairmont wagon (so I could have a wiper).

I actually bought these for my LTD, since the passenger tail light was broken (I like the look of the Fairmont lights better anyway, haha.) The quality of these are good the only thing bad about them, was that I had to file a little bit where the bulb goes in because there was a little extra material there. Also they don't come with gaskets on the back like the stock ones do, mine were in good enough condition to take them off and put them on the new ones.
Wow, he has quite a selection of repro lights for some odd cars.
85 Ford LTD LX: Four eyes and Four doors
EFI swap, AFR 165 heads, 5-speed conversion, Cobra brakes, etc.
I think I might buy the ebay lights and give them a try. I am sure that they are better than my cracked pair.
I'm gonna go for it. After scoring a NOS driver's side on ebay, I've had no luck finding a passenger side.
My reverse lenses are more yellow than a 6 pack-a-day smoker's teeth, so I'll grab a pair of those as well.
'78 Fairmont with 4 doors and 8 cylinders.
'92 LX convertible with 2 doors and 4 cylinders.
Who ever buys/has a set of reproduction lights please post pics.

Hey guys, just wanted to upload a picture of these taillights they light up really well at night (sorry I don't have any pictures of that) but my dad just pointed out to me the other day, that these taillights don't have reflectors in the sides like my stock ones did.

I got my stuff. I had to sign for it. Lots of extra trouble going to the post office since I was not home at the time. Parts looked pretty good.

those look nice. I am going to have to buy some. Are the white reverse lights different from wagon to sedan?? I see he has those for sale also.
