update: Re: Blau, Euro lens's and Cust. Service

[Ken Keith]

Okay, here's an update to my situation.  I am on the phone right 
now with Jim, and all is okay.  He will send out a replacement lens, 
and I will return the old one no problem.

He also explained about the city light holder, and also used the 
daytime running lamp description.  I guess you could call them 
that, since daytime running lamps are typically not as bright as 
regular low beams.

He said I didn't get the city light socket, but it was on backorder.  I 
don't remember if it was missing or not.  In about three weeks, they 
expect to get more in, and they will just ship out to me when they 
come in.

I got a regulator for my 5kcstq as well.  First time use of the 10% 
preferred customer discount.  So far, I am pleased with the whole 
ordeal.

I just hope I don't bust the old lense taking it off, because then I 
just ate another lens cost.  Any advice on removing the lens?  Jim 
explained how he does it, so I should be okay.  Just wanted to give 
anyone an opportunity to comment.

Does anyone know where I can find one of those plugs that 
simulates the 9004 headlight, so that I can make a harness that 
plugs right into it?  I'm not sure how much I'd be willing to pay for a 
harness for the lights, but there is some value to having a nice, 
professionally made harness.

Thanks,

Ken
