i would say yes
sure the originals were carello, and after market were made by another company
looks like there chrome tops and backings aswell like the originals
for that price it would be worth getting

Yeah the originals were like a bronzed backing like SEAN said, i did have a set on the cabbie but they never really floated my boat.........
So i Ebayed'em and got some chrome backed ones, now my boat is fully floating

Not worried about condition Lee, all I did was smash the glass on mine so I can bodge several together to make one good one.
I generally sandblast them back to bare metal and powder coat them anyway
Im here ready and waiting if you find something

Original Mk3 Escort Lights were made by lucas, they didn't have the chrome top or the chrome mirror backing, they were just normal/
But the Carello ones, are a perfect replacement with the chrome extras
