I've been looking at getting the euro-style clear front blinkers for my '94 GT on ebay but they are specified for years 96 and above. I've tried comparing pictures of 94 blinker fixtures to the newer years but it's hard to distinguish. It almost looks as if the 96 and aboves are slightly more angular.

Does anyone know if they are the same size? Or do the 96 and above differ from the 94's?

Any insight would be much appreciated, Thx.

Hi 6GC_Menace,

I may be able to help you out. Check my '94-'96 GT/ST 202 clear front lenses

www.protocast.co.uk

Not cheap but they are hand made and retain all the original markings. They are very close to OEM factory finish. I'm not aware of anybody else supplying these as a direct replacement for the original lens.

The other alternative is ceiling light diffuser......NOT!

Several guys on here have fitted mine and may like to comment, but my view FWIW is if you can't run to the pukka ones, keep the ambers for now. If you cut them out of acrylic sheet they will leak and look crap IMHO.

Regards LED cluster bulbs, be aware that you will almost certainly have to fit ballast resistors as well to stop the relay thinking a bulb has blown(tried them) Also , they look brilliant from the front but are very directional and are not so good at all side on - reduced visibility to others, but down to personal choice.
