au3 fairmont ones. you gotta cut 1 piece of plastic and trim the blub holders. 10 minute job and looks great.

Yeah, ford is the way to go. I rang up to see if they had any before I headed down, as the closest ford dealership is about 20mins from here, but make sure you don't mention to the guy that you plan to put them in an EB: I was lectured about how I can't put AU repeaters into an EB, followed by an eventual heavy sigh after I repeatedly said it can be done.

BA side repeaters look best, because they are not as bulky as the AUIII ones.
Chubbz, i sold my EDXR wheels for $750 2 years ago, but you can get them for about $500 now.

On that note, does anyone have a pic of BA repeaters fitted to an EB? I'd be curious to see, because I am about to cut holes in my guards to fit the repeaters, but i'd like to see what they look like.

I don't know why people suggest anything else but AUIII repeaters. They are the way to go: completely clear, and yes you need orange bulbs but Ford supply them anyway. BA ones will need a bit more work as far as I know - silicon around the base or something?
