The latest issue of this fine mag is on the stands detailing the 65/66, 01/02 & 15/16 Mustangs imported by Ford into Australia.

There is a mention of 'visual' modifications made to the 01/02 rear lights for ADR usage - anyone know what those rear-light mods are?

Far as I know its the rear amber sections of the rear tail lights which are to Aussie Standards. Yanks have red tail lights which flash when indicating to turn. Thats my perception Jeff.

Yeah I have seen the odd one. Price to buy them?? $500-600. Rare as rocking horse poo.
Wonder if there is another light or way to get replacement lights. Japan had the same model. May e some there cheaper. I cant read Japanese though.
One of mine gets moisture in and I have tried everything to stop it.

you can get new tailights to suit from Mustangs Australia Artarmon, nowhere near the prices you mention.
