Got the new harness and got it installed. That is good news. I had to get a wire coat hanger and straighten it and use it as a hook to pull the wires thru. Here are some pics.




Found out that the left side must have been pushed in….in a accident probably. You can kinda see this in the gap on the left one compared to the right. Its bigger. If you saw in in person you would also see the edge of the light opening is curved out. Kinda hard to see in the pictures. Looks like someone replaced the bedside because I do not see any bondo or repair. But, it could be well hidden. Well when the media blasting happens on the bed all will be revealed. I still have to get the rear backup lights (you can see the old cruddy one on the bumper in the top right picture), that is what the green wire goes too, but I have the tail-light housing already. I will be ordering the lenses, backup lights and bulbs next week and will have these in and working in a couple weeks. I really hate putting those new lamp housing on a rusty bed…..but I know later it will all come out and the bed will be like new.
I found the hole up in the frame that is for routing the side marker light wire. Great that is was already there, so I don’t have to drill one.
New lights are in the rear. Here are some pics.

New Side Light

Old side marker (reflector)

Lights on!
Update……got all the lights working you can see the backup lights and taillights are working and now have got the rear side-marker lights working. So the rear is done….other than the licence plate lights.
Moving onto the front lights. Consisting of the Parking lights and side-markers to side marker lights just like the rear and headlights.
Update 10/5/2017: I was able to order the rest of the items needed to get the front lights working. I will post pics and the process next week when I start this work. It should not take too long.
Nice to see things are getting more road worthy…lighting is vital. Sorry to hear there was an accident…but life happens….and as you said…it will be restored to new in time. Kind of like restoring anything older…there are always surprises:D
Yeah…it was not a big cruncher…..but I am sure I will find more surprises later on.
