I ran into a few issues, so my project still isn't complete. One of the headlight ballasts (the one from the broken headlight) had water in it. I opened it up and rinsed it with distilled water and then dried it out. However, it wouldn't work so I bought a replacement on ebay for $40. That arrived yesterday and it worked fine.

Also, when I tested the lights, none of the parking light bulbs worked. The litronic headlights use a different bulb (H6W) then the non-litronics and I couldn't find them in a couple of local auto parts stores that I checked. So, I ordered a pair from Rockauto and they are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Finally, I decided to change to clear corner trim. The least expensive available are on ebay, but they ship from Latvia. So, it will be mid December before they arrive.

Today, I'm going to spend more time polishing the headlights. I'll install them with amber corners tomorrow night.

I'm also going to look for the harness and control unit that allow the litronics to rotate up when the high beams go on. If anyone has the following parts laying around, please let me know.
