Grrrrr. My headlights have been screwed up ever since I got the new front clip. The low beams were super dim and the high beam light stayed on all the time.
I was using the new style 9007 bulbs. I just tried the old bulbs the 9004s and everything worked great. Well...almost. When I tried to install the 9004s in the new style headlight housing they wouldn't fit. Even though the sockets looked the same the 9004 is actually slightly longer. I ground down the 9004s to fit the socket, but I'm afraid they might come loose or dirt will be able to get into the housing.
What was different about the wiring of the 9004 vs 9007? The connectors fit the same, but obviously there is a difference. Matt, could you ask someone at PIAA? Maybe I could jsut do a bit of re-wiring so I can run the 9007s in my '93.
