And like many Rangers in WI, my gas tank door rusted out. So i made one out of diamond plate aluminum i had from an old running board!

All lights are proper colors. the only LEDS i have are the brake lights.
 
Nice clean truck...

Almost looks like the headlights from a Tempo would fit in there...but I'm sure there are used ones in the junkyard that would be in better shape...

There is a cleaning technique for those lenses that I've seen on here...works great from what I've seen.

I had a Tempo and the main problem with the lenses was moisture. To solve this I drilled a hole in each lens right at the bottom to help drain off the water...worked great and I didn't need to change lamps every spring and fall after that because the moisture would cause them to pop.
 
im gonna take mine apart with a heat gun and reseal to keep moisture out. I have everuything i need and i did one already a few months ago its been working great and no more burned out bulbs.
 
I've cleaned the lenses once already. no moisture problems yet. just 300,000 miles of wear and tear on them.
