    Headlight Buckets

    I bought a pair of new WIPAC headlight buckets and updated H4 healights from our host a few months back. I'm finally getting around to putting them in. Ran into a hiccup this afternoon though. How do you get the headlight plug out of old bucket and more importantly into the new bucket without destroying the plug or making a bigger hole? I was thinking of just making the hole bigger and finding a grommet to fit.

    You disconnect the other end of the headlight wires from their bullet connectors where they join the harness and thread that end through the grommet first.

        Not that bad--They're all connected in the center of the radiator support panel. Just take off your grille and look up!
