    Which headlight once and for all?

    If you are referring to our Lincoln Mark VIIs produced from 1984 to 1992, they left the factory with series 9004 halogen bulbs. They are readily available over the counter from your local AdvanceNapaO'rielyZone.

    Which headlight once and for all?

    I don't know that you have any other DOT approved options other than: 1. Used HID-9500 bulbs on ebay. 2. Ford halogen retrofit kit for the VIII.

    HID question

    I have no experience with HID bulbs at all, every car I've ever owned I've swapped the halogens for xenons, so I ask all you experts is the HID bulb that I pulled from my shattered housing still good or am I looking at another 100 bucks, I'd love to use morimoto leds but I don't think that is...

    Gas gauge ... calibrate?

    Seems like it would be more likely to be a problem with one of the connectors to the instrument cluster. It could be a bad ground connection. Maybe the cluster is grounding through the backlight bulbs, but it can't do that when power is switched on to the bulbs. Find and restore the missing...

    Adding A Little More Auto Dim To The Rearview Mirror

    I agree with Joe,some LED,S are to bright.

    Adding A Little More Auto Dim To The Rearview Mirror

    Doesn't mean they'll do it right. Kentucky recently banned lights that are too blue. Guess what... that was already regulated and wasn't the source of the problem anyway. Illegal bulbs are (and since they're illegal, that means they're already regulated) But they don't. It's too difficult to...

    Adding A Little More Auto Dim To The Rearview Mirror

    OEM lights are getting bad too, though. Ford Explorer/Fusion LED projectors and Honda LED reflectors glare like crazy. Many other projectors of all types are aimed way too high from the factory (LED Corollas and Range Rovers come to mind). Owners have no idea they're causing a problem

    Adding A Little More Auto Dim To The Rearview Mirror

    Or... Is it because more and more people are putting aftermarket LEDs in place of halogen headlight bulbs?

    1995 Lighting and air suspension lines

    Ok an update. At the junkyard, the 96 lights were the same as the 95. They just used normal 9005 bulbs. No "HID". And they were more faded than mine. I should have got the driver side anyway because mine must have some broken mount since it wiggles left to right. I had a fancy 9005 bulb in my...

    1995 Lighting and air suspension lines

    I bought my 1995 Mark VIII about 8 months ago and drove it home. I’d been reading about them for a few years, however. It has most of the common problems: Air suspension (drops down in the front after a few hours… but not always), Blend door (bangs once a second….but not always), radio...

    G2 Trunk florecent mod to 1157's and Repair snaped off housing mounting studs

    This 1157 mod is a mod that would need a Lathe application. I started out with a 2005 Mustang 6 - 1157 socket sequential harness with 2 marker spade sockets that I bought off Ebay. Then after more reading found one guy on you tube that did a nice looking conversion to sequential but latter he...

    What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

    ...about how the electrical draw on the lighting board shorts out the system so I opted to just use the Ballast wires to run most of the 6 RED LED bulbs. The 2 center sockets are just small spade markers, then the middle 1157's are lit just as OEM and the end 1157's light in tandem with the OEM...

    Moisture in headlight

    I was looking at some Gorilla sealant that dries clear and is silicon if the housing seal is bad. Is the only way to find where the leak is coming from is to fill the light with water? Cause if I can avoid putting anything else in it I may just seal the entire light to be safe.

    Moisture in headlight

    Heat gun will be too hot. Low wattage hair dryer would be much better. Also... I think the big box home store sell a butyl type caulk. That might work better than epoxy... but will have a longer cure time. The o-rings on the bulbs usually last the life of the bulbs, so unless installed...

    Moisture in headlight

    making them clear is the easy part. Polishing can make it look good if the damage isn't too deep. You may have to go with sanding from 400-1000 or 1500 to really clean them up, then followed by polishing. But it'll all be for nothing in a month or three if you don't seal it with a good clearcoat...

    Moisture in headlight

    I’ll have to check to see if the bulbs are sealing correctly. I’d like to get that crystal clear look out of them. Any suggestions on products to use or to buff with?

    Moisture in headlight

    Make sure there's no cracks and that the bulbs are sealing correctly. Otherwise, it's pretty common on Gen 1. It used a rubber butyl sealer that softens with heat. It's usually fine if applied correctly. It may be possible to reseal it by putting it in the over for 10 minutes at 210F and then...
