@gdstock: Check the grounds for your lights as well. Looks like you might have a marginal connection somewhere.

I think I'll just order a new set too, $82 for a complete new pair is pretty cheap.

The headlight pair with sidemarker is $82, when I bought the truck the passenger one was/is cracked and today I noticed it's starting to get wet on the inside, figure it just be better to spend the extra $10 for a complete new set...
Let's try out this newly discovered multiquote thingy.

Thats where I got mine at. They have quick shipping also, I think I had them in 2-3 days.

Those spots are what happens when the plastic of the light cover melts slightly while sanding it a little too hard...

I know I did that to 1 spot on my headlights while sanding them with the 3m headlight restore kit. It got all yellowish and burred.....but I was able to get the ugliness out of it when I sanded it with a finer grain and the buffer stuff.
