GTS light covers

[Petersho1]

Do you have some pics of GTS light covers? Dont see on their website.

 

[Yamaha V6]

They were discontinued, IIRC.

From my 1st SHO, my '93 MTX (not to be confused with Jezebel):

Oh, and I have a set, unused, in box, along with Lund Gen 2 Taillight blackouts, if interested.

Looks magnificent, why discontinued???
I need them for my new project.
Thanks!!!

 

[Ishodu]

Damn there discontinued? I better get a new pair soon then.

 

[Blue-By-U]

Jeez, almost every post I come across tells a story of how some part is discontinued

this is my first post here, but I just wanted to say that I JUST bought a pair yesterday. well, ordered them a week ago, and they came today.

 

[Yamaha V6]

Welcome Alex!

That's great news. For the longest time you couldn't get them, and there was talk GTS went out of business even. I'm glad they're still available.

I picked up the set I have as an investment off eBay based on that. Oh well.

Maybe I'll have them painted Moonlight Blue to match the 95 & do the tuner-taillight look instead.

I can't honestly confirm nor deny GTS's current existance. I ordered the covers through Parts Source (up here in Canada). They told me that they get them directly from GTS's warehouse, but they also told me that they don't make thermostat gaskets for the SHO

Just go with LUND - mine are darker than GTS anyway - IMO

Lund? Where can I find them?

 

[Goose]

Hi,

I bought my front and rear sets at VIP. About $45 for each pair. Trying calling LUND directly, that may help.

Also Try:
http://www.autotruckgear.com/aext/tailblkout.htm

-- That site says they sell LUND for cars and the chart shows that they sell them for the '92 - '95 Taurus ( I assume SHO and not GL, SE etc. )

If this does not help, continue to look on the Net for a retailer.

Hope this helps somewhat.

Here's a few pics w/GTS covers:

I've had my set for about 3.5 years now.

Do any of ya'll have problems with your covers cracking? I know that my brother did on his 98 GT with GTS covers. He cracked 2 sets just taking them off and then gave up.

 

[Alex Perry]

how did you get the sides of the covers to stay against the body? i'm thinking of putting velcro on there, just want to see some other non-permanent (glue) options.

 

[Yamaha V6]

I used velcro, mostly as a padding. To do again? I'd get a longer screw for the side marker, and drill thru the cover & hold the whole assembly together that way.

 

[MO-KAN SHO]

be careful drilling, I'm sure the plastic will break easily if you don't do it just right...

 

[SHO92]

your GTS covers don't have the hole drilled in them already? I got a pair for free that were a little scratched up, and they had the hole already for the sidemarker screw. I have never used mine, but I'm going to hold onto them for a little while, I have something in the works that I need them for, after that, I'd be willing to sell them if someone was interested.

 

[SHO2NV]

From someone that's had both GTS and LUND, the LUND fit way better and are much darker.

LUND:
