Heater control valve thing failed after 23 years of use. Bypassed and installed new hoses.

Here you go:
I think they look great:
Excellent Cutoff:
Low Beams: Such a huge difference
High Beams: Nicely blended and kicks out pretty far
Parking Light Mode: I like the super low glow of the headlights in this mode
Not bad for an off Amazon that has great reviews.

I would love to find some bright lights with a clean cut off, but I just don't think they would look right in my Comanche. Just not period correct.

I can get better pics in the morning. I'm with you that I wasn't really "loving" the look when I saw the online, but honestly, with the black background (chrome is an option), I think they look good.

Almost fully replaced the door pins on the driver's side, but I don't have a long enough punch to drive the splines home so I'll wait for my roommate to get back and steal his long punch to finish the job up

Installed 4* shims trying to get the driveline in working order. I should have put in the 6* shims I have but I’m planning on shackle relocation in the near future.
Slight vibration at 25 mph on the dot but overall it’s pretty darn good. No more howling when I let off the gas like I had before the SYE.
If I get the nerve to do anything at all tomorrow I’ll put on the ZJ transfer case skid I got for 10 bucks a while back.

So I found these today. Not rust free, which is probably next to impossible to come across in CT, but much better then mine are.
$100 for all four.
I think people seem to think that my Jeep is in better condition then it is.
Don't get me wrong she is in really good shape. But not rust free.
But the bottoms of both passenger doors are pretty crappy. Where the metal from the outer skin folds onto the inner is non existent.
Also the rear passenger door clear coat is been peeling.
These compared to mine are much better. That inner lip is mostly there but there is some bubbling on the outside of the front passenger door in the corner.
These are better then any I have seen in the boneyard in the last 7 years though.
So I am going to clean them up see how they look.
Then go see my body guy to see what he thinks.
I already know the look I am going to get from him though.
Figure if nothing else got some regulators, Back doors have privacy glass. Some extra switches. The one mirror that is still on one door is heated.
Some Agate panels. Some extra door molding.
I don't know.
