I agree with Rono, re-pops are not as good as the originals.

Eventually someone will start to re-pop them like the 56 Fairlane tail light/back-up housings and the cost will come down. Unfortunately, the quality will also probably go down.

Yes, I do have a set on my 55, but nowhere near as nice as these. In fact, I bought and sold 2 other sets until I got a set that was good enough driver quality that I could live with. Even then I spent around $ 400.00 more for reproduced lenses. If I do the math for three then those seem to be what the market bears. Hen's teeth ain't cheap!

Wow    maybe I should put mine up for sale on e bay.   Carl

This is another of those 'How Much !?!' examples from eBay.
I've always liked the uniqueness of '55-'56 Merc wagon taillights when used on a '55 or '56 Ford...
Seems like Brodie has a set on his '55...
