Another newbie question... I've seem some 4.6 Mustangs with what appear to be smoked or tinited headlight assemblies while others (like those on my 00) are clear. Are the smoked versions aftermarket or available throught Ford?

Are you talking about the headlights I've got? Mine's a 99.

I'm interested in this too, I'm doing the all-black theme (I like the stealth look) and I was wondering where I can get the smoked headlights and taillights.

They come smoked from the factory in the 01-04 cars and chrome in the 99-00 cars. The ones that kubball2005 has are aftermarket. The only difference is the clear reflectors though.

The smoked headlight assemblies came on all stangs from 01-04. You can get them from a Ford dealership and there are also a number of online restoration sites that carry them.

I picked up mine on eBay for $50.

I've been told by a dealership from which I inquired the same things about my 00. They said the mountings on the headlights are slightly different from 99-00 to 01-04 and you cannot swap the assemblies.

They're not different at all. They fit right in and it takes all of 5 minutes to change them.


Mine are out of an '03 Cobra and they fit in my '99. They probably had different part numbers. Those dumbass parts counter guys don't know their *** from a hot rock most of the time. They only know what is SUPPOSED to go in there. Just because the computer gives them a list of part numbers.
