    Hello

    New to this group. About three years ago I inherited my late uncles 2003 Mercury Marauder. A Marine Corps veteran of World War II He was the original owner and it was his pride and joy. The car has 44,000 original miles and the interior is in mint condition how ever the exterior, body and mechanical needed a lot of work. Fast forward and $13000 later IE new rockers, rear end, air ride, differential, paint, suspension, tires, LOL! here I am with a beautiful Black machine and right now my daily driver. I am looking to replace the headlamp, corner and tail lamp assemblies and I would love to know peoples opinions on which brand is best. I am defiantly hooked on this car. I think my wife is going to kill me.

    Welcome to the hobby of obsession!

    In regards to your question, I would say most of us are more favorable toward OEM headlamps/side markers. It is advantageous to purchase used oem as well and refinish the lenses if needed.

    Enjoy the ride!

    Congratulations on the build! Of course, OEM is best. If that's not possible, I have had good luck with TYC as an aftermarket brand.
