The Uly got some water and mud inside the headlight housing when we went for a swim across a river in Mex. (the parking light plug had fallen out allowing stuff to get in) Anyway I took the housing apart to clean it but the reflective coating wiped off with the dirt and grime! I promptly ordered a new housing from a badweb sponsor which shipped it to my house. Thanks Simi Buell! I was also taking this as a good time to update to HID so upon getting the housing I chopped up the wire harness and cut holes in the boots for the install of a new DMM hid kit with relays, only then did I realize that the high and low beam reflectors were on the opposite side of my old one! I'm sure Simi would have taken the return before I chopped it up but I wouldn't ask them to now. That and the fact that I have a trip planned next week! So the end result is I swapped the High/Low beams to match the reflectors. Maybe I blind a few cars?? I don't think I'm going to worry about it?? |

Transfer the untouched boots and old wiring harness back to the new assembly. Just curious, what part number does your receipt say? |

The old harness is not exactly "new" condition as I tapped into the parking light wires for my Zumo. That and the fact that it's been through hell and back! Hmm that receipt should be here somewhere... |
