My lens is starting to show it's age and looking like it needs replacement. Where would I find one? 50resto doesn't carry them and neither does mustangsunlimited. Where else should I look? And how tough would it be to replace?

they suck to get off, i just had mine off over the weekend to install some gauge overlays and billitt trim rings. I had to get out the dremel and trim around the edges to brake apart the epoxy holding it together. I thought i was gonna destroy it. I cleaned it up from the inside and it looks much better.

i love my dremel... without that, have my work I wouldn't be able to complete.. How's the overlay and trim rings look? I was planning on doing that with the new bezel lens.

I bought a new instrument clear plastic cover at the Ford Parts counter for $24. The hardest part about installing was getting the headlight knob off. It was pretty easy other than that...

$24 bucks, if i knew it was that cheap i would have just smashed the old one off instead of taking an hour to gently cut it off.
