car manufacturers have never heard of the words- logical or convenient. only- inexpensive, cheep, profit ^^

Chucked a new (old) head lamp in today so I can sort out this fine from the Police. Turned it on after putting grill back on and it lasted all of 46seconds... was spewing. Went to BNT and got a pair of semi sealed lamps. Was about $50 which was all good. Bye bye dull as hell sealed beams!!
So chucked the bad one out and fitted new one, went down the Police station and got off fine which was super sweet.
Got home, fitted other new headlamp along with a TE grill and chrome bonnet edge strip for a new look, quite like it... may put chrome TE bumpers on next though will need to do some rewiring of the park lights etc... also the rear TE bumper I have sticks out too far and the rubber stripping along the face of it at same stage has been bolted on with big mudguard washers... but it's not like the Red wag is anywhere near perfection.
Also want to find some lowered springs, not superlow just low ones... not all that important at the moment though.

Those headlamps are sweet too, have park lamp inside them too so if chrome TE bumper goes on would work... for those that don't know TE park lamps are where the corner indicators are on my car, indicators are on bumper and sides of the guards.

Lol I fitted all that by torch light in the driveway koz my barn door is too hard to pull up... needs retensioning.
Still having the overcharging problem causing flat battery too... Andrew, any idea if theres an altenator relay inside the car? Could hear it clicking somewhere when the volts were going up and down on the gauge... so frustrating!
