    They appear to be out of stock now, I bought my set like 6 years ago or so. A black 03 that I parted out also had 1 aftermarket marauder tail light, so they did exist.
    Yep, I know they did exist. Went looking for a pair for a project I'm doing and could not find any so got a really nice pair of used from bigcowl-imp

    The OEM car cover...even though mine was terribly faded - I regret letting it go years ago; back when I thought I'd never own a Marauder again.

    Fit perfectly, had the Marauder lettering at the front, and window for license plate in the back.

    Can't say how badly I wish I had it now.
    Current cars:

    2003 Marauder (*mostly* all original)
    2020 Kia Niro Hybrid (wife’s car & our commuter)

    Previously owned a 2004 DTR and a 2003 DBP…and 76 other vehicles but we don’t have time to list all that.

    Aren't those literally 2-bulb Crown Victoria tail lights (paint trim to match)?

    Those are the ones for the P71s, HOWVER, the Marauders' are, albeit slight, tinted.

    And... No need to PTM -IF- the EXTerior code is UA.

    Are they slightly tinted????

    I don't have a hard and fast rule for 2-bulb vs. 4-bulb usage. My 2004 LXS has the 2-bulb. I've seen other 2004 models with the 4-bulb. At some point they went 2-bulb exclusively.

    No, they are different. The MM tail lights are tinted darker just like the headlights are.

    Well, the headlights lenses are clear, it's just the non-reflective surfaces are painted black.

    I just had a set of headlights made. 2003-2004 OEM Grand Marquis headlamps (which you can still get from Ford) and swapped in the black shrouds from aftermarket Marauder headlights.
    You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference

    I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

    Tomato Tomoto, they're different - correct?
