nmonkey220 23 Posted November 18, 2019 you can use Capri ones and stretch them in the middle to fit the cortina grill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheffieldcortinacentre 530 Posted November 18, 2019 Sorry no luck, nowadays the lights are easiest part to find. Capri lights fit but due to their thin flat lense they always look as though there sunk in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nogE 91 Posted November 19, 2019 To find a conplete mk3 set is hard nowadays...if u do the set sells for real silly money..iv seen backplates with rot sell for 150... set consist of Backplates (make sure good towers) Chrome rings Cups..these are sided..marked up.. Adjusters with tower springs Lamps, are sided Lamp plugs(these are plastic cups with fixed loom wires etc) Lamps can be sealed or Halogen type... Sealed should hv a small clear hole on the rear or them for the sidelight..only on the two outside ones... I've probably missed some details..... I'm sure someone will help correct..it's been a while... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
