Just a quick question, will this boot lip from an ED Falcon fit my DC LTD? Boot looks to be the same, but this pic shows a curve in the lip.... any help would be great, place is selling these for $80 pretty keen to grab one

No it won't fit.

The Fairlane and LTD boot lids are less rounded than the Falcon.

I believe the user LTDHO and one other have lips suited to the Fairlane/LTD shape, but as I understand it wasn't designed specifically for it.
Nor do they seem to be telling anyone much about it.

Maybe you could have a crack at making a custom one yourself? It'll probably work out to be quite pricey though.

I tried the XR one first. It is possible if you want to make brakets, however I didn't think the curve of a XR lip suits the flat a*** of the LWB.

I suggest looing for alternatives. Mine is only a secret as I don't want copy cats. Originality it the only way.

Good luck :D
