2000 Mustang Headlights
Replacing Your 2000 Ford Mustang’s Headlights:No significant changes were made to the 2000 Ford Mustang base model from the previous model year. The 2000 Ford Mustang Cobra R, however, has a number of distinguishing features, including redesigned headlight assemblies. While 2000 Mustang base models feature headlights that have a chrome color background, the Cobra R features headlights that have a black background, which is said to add a smoke-like effect and make the headlights appear tinted. Still, the headlight lenses are exactly the same in both the 2000 base, GT and Cobra models. That means there is no performance difference, even though the headlights appear very different at first glance. Ford later made the 2000 Cobra R’s redesigned headlights with the black background standard equipment on all Mustangs manufactured in 2001, and it continued to do so for a number of years there after. The 2000 Mustang is part of the popular sports car’s fourth generation. Its base model has a 3.8-liter V6 engine with 190 hp. The 2000 Mustang GT has a 4.6-liter V-8 engine with 260 hp. The headlight assemblies in both models are the same. However, the 2000 Mustang Cobra R, which features a 5.4-liter Modular V-8 engine with 385 hp, requires Ford’s redesigned headlights with the black background.
Finding Out Why Your Headlights Failed:If the headlights in your 2000 Mustang have failed, you’re not alone. Mustang aficionados have encountered a number of issues with headlight assemblies on the popular sports car. Some drivers have reported the headlights “shake” while they are driving, which could be the result of faulty plastic clips within the assembly. That issue also could result from the headlight’s assembly seats breaking. That can also cause moisture or condensation buildup that can cloud the headlight, or create an electrical short in the unit. There also have been a number of issues reported with aftermarket headlights, so it’s best to know what type of headlights are installed on any used Mustang you purchase so you can address any product recalls that have been issued.
