I was finally able to change the headlights in my dad's truck Sunday.
What I estimated to be a 30-40 minute job turned into the better part of an hour.
Drivers side housing came off fine, no problems whatsoever. The passenger side, however, heh, is where the fun began.
I first had problems getting the housing out since it was stuck in the fender being 8 years old. Then, the wire harness decided it wanted to stick to the bulb, ripping it out of the housing in the process. Once I moved the o-ring on the connector, it came off...
Then, while putting everything back together, my extension gets stuck on the outer bolt for the housing...ok, whatever, when I went to grab it, it fell inside the bumper....which is a mess of steel on his truck. So I have him back the truck up and I climb under it to find my damn socket and extension, find the socket...but wheres my extension?
Well, had to take the fog light out and contort myself under the truck so that I was almost sitting up...but I found it and got everything back together!
Azzhole truck.

Just recieved my Euro style tail lights, 3rd brake light billet cover and checkerplate tailgate guard. This stuff will go on this weekend, hopefully I'll have my motorcycle back together by then and can start on the truck!
Just winter maintenance on the motorcycle, air filter, fuel filter, sparkplugs, adjust and synch the carbs, adjust the decompression system cables, installed a new windshield in my fairing and wired in an air horn set up!
Then I'll move on to my side by side, new LED driving lights and an air horn on it, too!
