    What's confusing about the hi/lo kits? All you do is hook one plug from the kit into your factory harness and you have high and low beams :birgits_tiredcoffee

    I got a good kit though, never any issues from any of Jon_To's :peace:

    My hand painted emblem is turning out pretty nice, it still needs some touch ups, but i think it looks pretty damn good! What y'all think?

    Well I taped off and sprayed alot, but the ford lettering and the black ring require hand painting.
    I used black modeling paint. And I used primer, and krylon spray paint, 5 coats...

    I thought about that, but I was worried that it would look odd and the black on black with the emblem and grille couldn't be matched up to look right...
