It was out of the RS Accessory book when new. They are quite hard to find, but IMO are the best wheel to have. That's why I have two

I have all the original lights and spots to go back on mine, was thinking about putting it back to standard (the way I bought it) even down to the exhaust

Yeah straight swap if it's got the Escort boss. Not sure about cheaper though. I think I paid Ł120 for mine as it's mint. I had one in my Fiesta before which was average and paid Ł50, so when I saw this one I just had to have it.
