Hm... I don't know. You could possibly look for overseas suppliers of parts. Maybe even look for the places that convert cars for use in Europe and Australia.

Good luck though! I love the look of them

http://www.karkraft.com/ used to carry them, but it looks like now all they do is motor stuff. You might can call them.

whats up guys, im new to the forum and just wanted to say that karkraft used to have them, but they sold their last pair in feb '07 to me. took me forever to find them, and havent been able to find a single pair anywhere. you can try PMing this guy tho, it seems like he might be able to find some used ones for you:

Wasn't the wiring a bit of a beast too?

I thought I saw a set on display at the store for www.dallasmustang.com a few months back.

I have them on mine http://s55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...nt=MyStang.jpg

Mine came with them so I have no idea other than the afore mentioned site.

nope, the wiring wasnt too bad. all you need is 2 extra sockets per side, some wire, and wire cutters. i have the instructions on how to do it, thought i had them saved on this computer but i dont, its on the one at home. once i get there, ill post up the install instructions.
