When did you try to get the headlights from Ford? Did Ford tell you they can get both left and right OEM headlights?

Aftermarket ones are good. The brand is Tyco I think. It ships with a bulb and the harness from the bulb to the vehicle connector.

Tyco? I think the correct name is TYC lol
I had TYCs on my car for over a year, the lighting pattern was excellent but the UV clear coat started to peal so I sold the set looking like new for $160.
I strongly recommend people to buy a decent like new OEM grand marques headlights and blackout the internal bezel.

Exactly!!
Did you read the thread about using rain x 2 in 1 that removes the chrome finish, and black marauder trim is underneath?
It's a project because you have to remove the outer housing, but it works!!

I replaced both of mine on my MM, from Rock Auto last summer. Excellent replacements - came with bulbs installed.

I also just replaced one, sourced from Rock Auto on a lady friend's Chevy/Colorado - same experience -
