1st place import class today in Harrison
the weather was beautiful and the 62 bug wasn’t the only bug in the crowd, beautiful classics and the food was awesome.

Headlight assembly gasket and headlight wiring conduit
Both of the headlights missing rubber gasket, also found a wiring conduit to protect the wires under the fender.

Headlight seals
I replaced both of the headlight seals, old seals cracked, I thought I received the wrong seals but they fit, a little tricky at first but they will go on with some patience of course.

LED light project
A updated video of the LED lights in action will be added in the near future. The fender turn signals willl remain non led for now.

turn signal seals, light housing, LED blinkers
