Sorry, don't have an answer but a question (just curiosity)...you're looking for something more accurate because of the lack of headlight detail in the kit? I wonder how the headlights from a Diecast kit would transfer? The diecast ones I've seen are 1/24 though, so they may need some fitting.

Absolutely blown away that the Mustang was kitted without headlights. Intended age bracket don't mean squat- of course car guys of all ages want scale Mustangs. Versus the cost of including them? I get the whole "simple kit, easy for young builders" thing. But to ignore such a basic part, that's like asking half your customer base to ignore it. Because if I didn't know about guys like Frank casting the parts, I would say "no".
It's just marketing common sense. Two little clear parts; or the lack of, kill the look of the finished product. Where is the marketing common sense here? When I walk in that hobby store, there are literally hundreds of choices before me. The 'stang kit? "No headlights? No, thanks".

It's not just the Mustang, the 2017 Raptor was the same, lots of great detail on the body/interior and then a flat piece of plastic for the chassis and clear plastic painted silver for the headlight buckets....kind of a shame tbh.

Frank,

I'll be in for a few sets of lights so please give a heads up when they're available again please.

Thanks

Ditto, ditto, and ditto.

Ditto .. Ditto .. Ditto ... ed Sexton and I have had conversation recently about Revelle and Customer attitude . He is a great person and I appreciate his efforts and communications . He cannot undo decades of the failures I've experienced as a Customer . IMHO , replacement parts .. lol ..    PM me for details of decades of this joke on me . He did try , he has limits also . So , is both the Revelle 1/25 Scale 1958 & 1959 Corvette not the same Car ?? Louvered Hood , Trunk Lid trim Strips of Chrome ?? Only Visually difference .. 'Corvette Blue Book' . I refuse to but any more Revelle kits .. Thanx ..

[Huntdl]

Will definitely be ordering

I just placed an order for 2 sets of Mustang headlights through Paypal.

Thanks for your effort in creating these since we may not get a full kit of a 2016.
