Just make sure to put some silicone around the seal so you won't get any condesation inside the fixtures.

the headlights look fine.. just please do NOT get the matching tail lights... They look pretty good on the front... but damn are they ugly on the **** end.

just remember this simple rhyme

clear headlights are a go, clear tail lights are a big no

I agree. I am on my second black mustang, I prefer projector headlights, or smoked tint. Only thing I like on the tailights are black or smoke covers on the tails if its a black stang. I too am content with stock tailights, I am not a big mustang-to-rice conversion fan. That includes park-benches on the trunks, yuck.

i got some similar headlights from 50resto.com. they look awesome, however they leak. i think most SN-95 aftermarket lights have problems due to the design of the headlamp assembly. i have tried many things, including silicone, to prevent this without success. the manufacturer told me that silicone would not work, and that i shoud drill small holes in the lights. didnt do that.

sorry for rambling, just something to keep in mind. if you live in a warm climate, maybe you wont have problems, wisconsin winters arent very nice.
