Hello boys and girls!

I'm having an absolute nightmare finding any aftermarket lights, indictors, tail lights etc for my 1999 Challenger. Do they exist? Am I being a tool? Can anyone point me to a website that caters for my car?

TIA, Dan.

Isn't the Challenger basically the same body as the Shogun Sport? - I am happy to be corrected by anyone who knows better though.

.... and welcome to the club.

Yes, I think so, although I think it has different bumpers and lights. I'm no expert on these. It's not letting me upload a picture but mine looks the same as this minus the bull bar.. enter this item number 1286162126 on gumtree. Hope this works.

Pete is right that the Challenger and Shogun Sport have basically the same body, but the front end was 'facelifted' when the Challenger was renamed Shogun Sport for the UK market.  So the headlights, grille, bumper etc are different.  The rear end stayed pretty much the same AFAIK, so the rear lights from a Shogun Sport will fit a Challenger.

There's still stuff on Ebay for the Challenger front end. The lights are the same for the diesel and petrol (V6) versions.

To further confuse things, the Challenger was sold in the US as the Montero Sport and there's still a lot of 'new old stock' available there.  The headlights are LHD though, so aren't right for the UK. Indicators should be the same.
