What year Explorer did the visors come from and were illuminated ones possible, too?
2003 Marauder 300B
1996-97 Cobra wheel straight but weathered (For Sale)
84 TC manual shifter handle no  (For Sale)

BTW, I had a 1988 T-Bird Sport way back when. I found out that it was totalled shortly after trading it in. It still has the ignition switch recall to date.

Special thanx to EricCoolCats for showing me to this site.:bowdown:

Mine are illuminated.I really don't remember what year it was.Look at the mounting pedestal.If it has 3 screws,it's probably the one.The new ones are different.I'm going to start grabbing all of them I can find at the yards.Eventually,we'll all need them.They are great,with ZERO mods.Just plug and play,and that includes the lights.

Very close.They are great,and Gayle loves them.She hates the sun in her eyes when we're cruising.Took about 5 minutes to install both sides....and I was taking my time.LOL.I saw a REALLY nice Lincoln at the yard today.It wasn't out for parts yet,but I'll be there when it is,I had a cool idea.More on that later.

From the Lincoln?If so,I'll grab it when I go back....if the car is out for the public by then.Explorers have consoles similar and they fit our cars great.

Glad to see you finally snagged a set Vin.  The newer dome lights are SOOO much brighter as well. :)

I agree about the light.Very nice piece,and more than easy to install.Thanks for the tip on the visors.I'm grabbing all I can at the yards starting my next trip.They'll be needed by us Fox Bird and cat owners soon enough.I'm going to start grabbing everything.Our parts supply is drying up.

I had a dome light like that in the white car, they are definitely brighter than the stock one.

Since I've never seen even a pic of an Explorer console, would one fit in a moonroof car?

Vin, very nice job :D

That's why I've begun making my own. It may be expensive up front but I've been getting more and more use out of tools I originally purchased for something else. There is quite a bit I can do myself without needing a mechanic's time and their tools now. Anything that I can't use Mustang parts on, I make sure I can either replace it myself or have spares on hand (like random dc motors and those recent rear center brake hoses).
