Default Re: Headlights

The headlight bucket should have a short, tube projection on the inside where the conduit enters it. . The conduit has a metal grommet on it that slides over the projection and holds the conduit from pulling out of the bucket. Some conduits do not have this part. I just solved this problem on my car by getting new conduits. Maybe others will have a different fix. I wanted it to be like the original set up A N D my conduits were in bad condition so I got new.

Default Re: Headlights

On my truck I drilled holes through the existing connectors just big enough to slide the wire into the light buckets and then soldered the wires inside.
