Sadly I could not use the new grommets, my old ones are in decent shape though. I rejuvenated them with some silicone weatherstrip lube/conditioner and all worked out.

All told I spent about $120 total for all 7 markers. Not chump change but much cheaper than $70 a piece through Ford. Total install was about 2 hours. You do need to be careful with the oem grommets and the lights in the grille. The lights in the grille are held in with stamped hex nuts that thread onto "posts" molded into the grille, I didn't break any but it would be easy to do so. I'll try to post some pics later of the completed project (photobucket is a pain in the A$$). Also, if you prefer Grote has the clear lense markers too at least in one color, I'm not sure if it was red or yellow I saw but I liked the colored lenses. BTW, Grote is the oem manufacturer, if you look closely at your markers they will have "Grote" molded into the lense, which is how I found these. Do a search on Grote's website or search Grote micronova for more info. HTH
