Interesting. Talked to him a few months ago. On a Sat. afternoon, he leisurely, not in a hurry, took time to explain everything. I had seen the article in M&Fords and the lites were interesting. Sounds like a deal. Pete is a nice guy
I believe this has to rate as one of the easier modifications. I would guess an hour or two if you are very careful when removing the trim ring and bulbs.
It's very straightforward. You'll spend more time routing the harness and hiding everything than you will actually making it work.
Full instructions come with the kit, but here's a nutshell:
Take out the old bulbs. Plug one of your old headlight plugs into the new harness (this controls it). Plug the new headlights into the new harness after routing it. Mount the relays and fuse holder near your battery. Trim the power and ground wires to length, crimp on the included ends (red & black heat shrink also included), and hook them to power & ground. You must use power directly from the battery or the hot side of the solenoid. Fasten the new lights in just like the old ones.
NOTE: If you have a '69 you'll have to enlarge the hole in the back of the headlight cup to clear the rubber boot on the back of the new light. Pics and details are in the instructions.
AIM YOUR LIGHTS! Aiming instructions are included.
Of course, you can call or email any time if you have a question.
I didn't get a pt, but if you email me your address I can quote shipping. The site doesn't do it -- I just charge actual shipping w/o any markup or handling charges.
Usually USPS Priority works out best to Canada. I just sent a headlight to Woodstock, Ontario for $27.21 if that helps.
Thanks for the order and it was nice speaking with you. :thumbsup:
If anyone has any problems whatsoever with the website or any feedback at all please let me know. The e-commerce part of the site is completely new as of about a week ago so there may be a few bugs out there.
The domed "Classic" lights are E-code certified, not DOT. I have a DOT alternative if you're concerned about it, but they're less stock looking.
