Hi Rich,
I didn't get the harness, which looks pretty decent. I like that old
style simulated headlight bulb and plugs into the stock harness.
My 4ksq set has a hole and a socket for city lights, I believe it's
under the main H4 bulb. The 5kcstq set I got also have a hole and
socket. The 5kcstq set has somewhat of an internal wiring
harness, with H4, H3, and city light sockets and wires, leading to a
connector on the light assembly itself. I was suprised that the
corner lense area wasn't glass. I'd never seen 5kt euros in person
before, and had assumed the wrap-around effect was all glass like
the 4k euros. Since it's a separate lens, it seems like the corner
light could almost be retained. I don't know how much less room
there is behind the corner light/reflector on the euros compared to
the DOT's.
I probably wouldn't be still expecting a socket after that much time.
If you are referring to eurolights for your 4kcsq, then I think they are
supposed to have a socket and hole for "city lights". This would be
different than daytime running lights.
I still haven't heard back from Jim at Blau, I left a couple messages
to his direct voicemail box. He was nice enough to give me a
follow up call after the shipment, but he missed me and left a
message, and I hadn't yet inspected the lights. I will be patient
and let them get back to me. The order total was a decent
amount, so I imagine he/they'd want to leave me with a good
impression.
What'd y'all think of the way the bubble in the glass looks? Am I
being too picky?
