Default Clear side indicators

Just a couple of quick questions.... but firstly I have an '04 2door LR Zetec and have been meaning to start some mod's for it for a couple of months now. I've been scanning through this forum (which is a great source of info for any Focus fan out there) and I've decided the best place to start would be replacing the stock side indicators. But, I've noticed that the new FG Falcon has gone to an amazingly similar shape/style clear side indicator (well as far as I can tell) on all its variants. So I was wondering if any one can clarify for me if this is the case... and whether it would be worth using them (the FG's) instead of a ST170 or the like indicator

sorry I haven't got any pic's to show exactly what I'm talking about, but russelw has posted some great pics of the FG that show its indicators here:

Thanks

G'day and welcome to the Forum. You might like to check out www.european-parts.net

This is a great source of gear for your Focus and a few of us with LR Focus have bought from them.

Haven't had the opportunity to have a close look at the new Falcon so I can't confirm whether they're the same part or not.

BTW Are you situated in Sydney Metro area?

The FG Falcon side indicators stick out further than a LR Focus. I would recommend doing the ST170 it doesn't cost much and a cheap mod from any Ford dealer. I bought them and I think they look great

Will do! most of my weekly commute is in and around Macquarie Uni and/or Leichhardt (for work), so just keep an eye out for my P's and you'll know it's me. :eclipsee_
