Hello all. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me one way or the other. EB GTs, they have a park light in the indicator, I believe, like the ED XRs.
Do they also still have the park light in the headlight? Or is it only in the indicator? Can you (from a roadworthy pov) have a park light in both the headlight and the indicator? Any info is appreciated. |

im sure it would be perfectly legal to have the park light in both.
but why not open the headlight put some chrome tape across the park light hole, cut the wires off the loom inside the headlight for the parker, and just run the ones in the GT indicators...... you can buy the chrome tape from car pinstripe places.... |

yeah you can have as many as you like technically speaking, foward facing lights have to be white, rear facing lights have to be red, and side markers have to be orange, all low wattage of course, unless i am wrong.

EB GTs had standard headlights with the parkers.

Pretty sure they're standard, Ford first changed them for the twinlights (ED)

Interesting, so the EB GT must have a pair of parkers each side. I plan to wire up my indicator parkers seperately, or even have them as daytime lights running when the ignition is on.

With regards to park lites running thru the indicators, has anyone done this mod to the el cheapo aftermarket front indicators? I vaguely remember it being done and wanted to have a go myself, don't know if there is an old thread somewhere re this stuff.

It can be done, you'd just want to be sure to use lots of silicon around where you've drilled to install the parker to avoid leaking.

Yes i did the mod to TuffEDXR-s car when we put the XR front on his Fairmont.
I used 2 10mm white LED's in each clear indicators. We just disconnected the headlight parker, and plugged it into the blinker.
