Description
The actual replacement part can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Ford-F4DZ-13N019-A-RETAINER-BULBS/dp/B000O0BGY0
You can use Amazon's "Filter by Vehicle" tool to check the fit on your car.
I replaced my 2001 Explorer Sport Trac's headlights with LEDs (I HIGHLY recommend doing so, it makes a huge difference and made night time driving so much safer!) and, being that the thing is almost old enough to vote, the OEM plastic part broke when I took it off.
I also included a second version of the clip, which has twice as many fingers for extra grip. Your headlights may or may not need them, it's up to you.
Instead of paying $20 for a pair, I drew them up and printed them out instead. Much faster and cheaper that way.
Part number I found is F4DZ-13N019-A, which apparently fits the following:
2000-2004 Ford F-150
1998-2011 Ford Crown Victoria
1997-2003 Ford Escort
2001-2003 Ford Explorer
2001-2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
2001-2011 Ford Ranger
2005-2007 Ford Focus
1996-1997 Ford Thunderbird
1994-1995 Ford Taurus
Hope this helps someone else out. Enjoy!

Print price estimates
Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.
| Filament | USD / print | Application notes |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | $17.50 | Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors. |
| PETG | $18.00 | General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review. |
| ASA | $18.50 | Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry. |
| ABS | $18.50 | Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions. |
| TPU | $20.00 | Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials. |
| Nylon | $20.00 | Moisture, tolerances and application require review. |
| PA-CF | $21.00 | Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review. |
Pricing assumptions and exclusions
USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.
Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.
Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
