    1985 Taillights?

    Hi everyone! I have a 1985 Mercury Grand Marquis and was wondering if you could put the taillights from the 88 and up Marquis on there. If not, does anyone know of a company that makes a nice aftermarket taillight for my car? I love the 85 Marquis, just hate the taillights! Thanks

    depending on where you live, one of the folks with an 88-91 may want to trade you for your tail lights. I do believe they will swap.

                    i always thought the '83-'91 cars, had the same tail panel? i know for fact that '79-'83 is of difference and '90-'91 bulb sockets ar different.
