Re: Euro Lights for Ur-q

[John Karasaki <johkar@teleport.com>]

Very simple swap.  You need a new '85+ 4k/coupe grill and the 4 trim pieces
(2 per side) that go around the headlights.  The ones on your car now will
NOT work.

The grill is held in by one screw and a few clips at the top.  The upper
light trim is only held in by one clip.  The lower trim by one screw.

Again, a very easy swap.

BTW, I have the one piece h4/h1 euro aerodynamic lights on our '82 urq.
They work great!  But only after I built a wiring harness and got full
voltage back at each light!  The stock wiring is routed through the
headlight switch and a few odd connections, so the voltage drop is
significant with the stock wiring.

HTH.
