Re: Working Man's Burbon

Having gotten the front marker lights working, it's on to the headlights. I have an old set of Hella non-dot euro H-4 lights I wanted to use. These lights would not fit in the buckets with the rubber seals installed. Not wanting to lose the dust protection the seals provide, I removed the buckets, placed the seal in the center of the bucket as a template to mark the needed clearance, and cut about 3/32" out of the center of the buckets. Several minutes with a file cleaned up the larger holes. Then a couple coats of rattle can protection and reinstalled them in the grille. A simple upgrade that actually stayed simple.
