Hello! I am new here and I am hoping you guys can help me. I have a 1980 F150 Ranger XLT and I am looking for the badge that goes on the radio bezel about the radio that reads "Ranger XLT". Can anyone shine some light on where I can find one or what the part number would be? I have been looking everywhere to no avail.

Thank you in advance.

Brandon

 

Welcome to FTE !
I've never seen one that is "Ranger XLT". But what do I know
I have seen them either Ranger...or XLT

EOTZ-1004460-C .. Instrument Panel Name Plate - Ranger XLT / Obsolete

1980/81 F100/350 & Bronco.

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

Pic: Parts catalog applications = 1980/81: Ranger; Ranger XLT; Ranger Lariat // 1982/86 = XL; XLS; XLT

If you don't care about originality, could use Ranger (EOTZ-1004460-A) from 1980/81 and XLT (E2TZ-1004460-B) from 1982/86.

Both available NOS .. but IMO, would look 'out of place.'

 

I see the Ranger Lariat badged bezels from time to time, but only once have I come across the Ranger XLT radio bezel in the junkyard.

 

The part number above, I recommend searching for it on ebay from time to time. I find quite a few NOS parts on ebay this way.

That's where I found two NOS door panel door handle gromets for my Dennis Carpenter reproduction door panels.

That is also how I found my push bar for my truck as well just kept searching obsolete part numbers till I got a hit.

Hell I did a search earlier today and found the door check spring or what ever its called that NumberDummy helped with providing the part number for.

 

I looked, none on ebay at the present time.

 

lol I know I purchased the only one on there after I found it when you posted the part number. I picked it up for $20 NOS in the paper pouch, which I don't know how much the other places would charge but if my history with GreenSales is any indicator he probably want $80 for it.

 

Thanks for the info guys! I couldn't find one anywhere so I am going to try a D7TZ1004460C. Let me know if you think it will fit and if it will look OK.

Thanks!

 

D7TZ-1004460-C .. Glove Compartment Door Emblem "Ranger XLT" (see 04460 in pic) / Obsolete

1977/79 F100/350 & 1978/79 Bronco (1973/76 F100/350 is different).

NOS PARTS SOURCE in Olathe KS has 1 = 913-220-5746.

CARPENTER NOS OBSOLETE PARTS in Concord NC has 336 = 800-476-9653.

 

This is rather expensive and needs repainted but I believe this is it:

And I can tell the cut of meat by shoving my head up a Bull's @ZZ but I'd rather take the Butcher's word for it...

 

As usual, the ebay seller hasn't a single clue what the applications are. 1980/81 is the same, 1982/86 doesn't include Ranger, only XLT.

See post #3.

 

lol when has ebay sellers had a clue.

That's why I search via part number. People that have NOS parts in boxes they don't list application but part number as they don't know what its officially called or what it fits.

But now if they know what it fits they always get the year wrong. Don't know how many parts I found for my '63 Belair listed as for a '64 Impala or a '62 Biscayne lol.

 

I don't think I can pay the money that guy wants for an emblem that needs restoration. I think 70.00 is a bit steep for that part no matter how badly I want one.

 

Some times you pay or you wait and hope for a better deal.

I bought two reproduction F150 emblems for my truck from Dennis cost me $70 for the pair before shipping. They just started making them but now they are cheap. I didn't know I just wanted to grab them before they go the way of the flareside tail light housings.

But now I waited I almost bought a push bar for me truck off a wrecked truck for $90 off ebay pre shipping. Didn't get it but with me waiting I found a guy that was selling a NOS new in box Rally brand chrome push bar with some shelf wear. Picked it up for $250 with free shipping. But it took me nearly 3 years before I found this one.

I say if money is a option I would wait and hit ebay every so often search for the part number full part number and if no hits delete prefix but keep the main number and suffix and see what comes up then. Eventually youll find it and some times find it for a good price.
