Up until now the only Ford vehicles that got round fogs were SVT vehicles. Now the 2008 Focus had to ruin that distinction.

Yea .. SVT put them on 'their' vehicles ..... FORD wasn't tied to that 'tradition'. Although it did help recognition of the SVT variants.

I have been hunting for one of thoes old Lightnings.
OP: How could you forget the 87-93 GT, your Mustang prevliages have been revoked and you have to give up one "MAN" card and that only leaves you with one
Must redeem yourself to get Mustang prevliages back.........get me a picture of a totaled Camaro

Newer F150's have round fogs too. The ones I've seen were 4x4 XLT's.

Did SVT make the older lightning? My dad had a 95 and i dont remember seeing a SVT badge on it. As for the thread, i cut and pasted it from another site - just wanted to spark some convo.

This was my 95 and they had SVT on the bottom right of the tailgate but the 93 and 94 just had the Lightning sticker on the tailgate.

my old '66 GT had round fog lights

I don't think the round fog light thing was really any kind of tradition SVT, more like a little styling cue...a lot of other Fords present and past have used round fog lights
