Its actually a mazda I built with and for my brother when I went back up to Ontario for a bit . Built a brand new frame front to back . Added electric Maxima seats . Really just a simple truck that lays rocker

I just made mounts out of 1 inch L-Channel welding it to Core Support using some 1/4 threaded rod to make them adjustable . You could do it the easy way and just drill a hole in the L-Channel bolt that to light mounts and then weld mounts to core support just make sure they are dead on because there will be no future adjustment . Its a very easy swap to do just cut the grill first so you have the angles perfect then you can secure them into grille while mounting to core support

Very clean truck,as yes,I agree,the Escort lights look great. So subtle the average joe doesnt notice them.

1985-1990 Escort Headlights are the proper ones . Ebay sellers sometimes have Aftermarket ones that are clear in the lense .



2001 and newer are what I used on my Blue one , but the older Ranger ones have a Squared look aswell I find with the right aftermarket one they look even better
