I went with the Larsens like Tom's. Same model however with the silver face vs. the black face. Truth be told I like the black face better however I chose the cheaper option because headlights don't normally have a black face lol. They are all made in the same place China.

It seems like we only need the one, just in case we do need to install the other, no big deal.....a simple operation. A side note....I found that when you plug in the resistor to the H4 plug, it was not as snug as I would like it to be, so I used some electrical tape to help make sure I had a tight connection.

As George also mentioned how much he likes the lights, I think we will also. They look great in the 94, anxious to turn them on....but need to get the alternator job and the fender covers done first.....

Went to Lowes and found a speed nut that worked for headlight cover. They have a good section for automotive fasteners which may save you time when needed. This seems to be the closest to a factory item for this purpose.

Headlights are done!!!

LS done...

No. You need to order that separate. Mine is coming in the mail from Billy Mild.

BTW, I have a spare resistor from my purchase. And it shouldn't be needed as it has been said....If that is the case if you or anyone else needs one, whoever would be welcomed to the spare @ NC, just pay shipping...
