Got some new headlights, trying to install. They have a lot less wires than the ones I'm pulling off. Not sure which wires to match up and which are redundant. Replacing older HID's (which replaced original halogens) with LED's. Not sure if the HID's which are currently in there had extra wiring coming from the "ballasts" or what ever, if some of those older connectors can be ignored or not.

Gumby just called as I was typing this. Heading over to his house to get a second set of eyes on it.

Renewed SiriusXM for $6.54/mo. Had to call and decline 2 offers before the third and final acceptable offer. Told the guy I only listen to like 3 channels. I'm NOT paying $25.xx/mo for that!

Just got back from Gumby's. New headlights installed. High beam doesn't appear to work on one. :oops: It's ALWAYS F something.

New headlights only had two connections requiring plugging in. Had to remove a spider's web of wiring from previous HID lights. Looked like a hairball from a drain clog. Wiring is much cleaner now. :D

New lights are MUCH brighter, especially low beams. :D

Yes. Bought an adapter that plugs in the backside of the trailer plugs instead of bugging into the main harness.
Can you post a link for the adapter? I'd be interested!

edit/addition: was it this adapter from Diode Dynamics?

Went and picked up a room mate for my Raptor. My wife wanted a truck so this is what we got her. Notice the tire shine. 2014 with 39k miles. Mine is the 2010. 25k miles.
