Just noticed something off. So I fixed it. Mig welded the broken bits of grill and shot it with some black paint.

I almost bought a pair of those for mine but realized I don't have the mounting holes. I wonder when they started with them.
They came as a kit that was pretty cheap. Hood hinge gaskets x 4 and radiator bumbers x 4.

No idea when they started with them, but I'm putting them in storage until I or someone else needs them.
 
Got a treasure trove of goodies in the mail last night and this morning.

These came with my SOR kit, but my rig doesn't accommodate them. Wondering if I want them.

I just weatherstrip glued them in place. I couldn't see drilling a new hole in a clean fender.
 
I put those in the spare parts box
 
Draw a diagram of every connector you work on, how they enter each and every one.
This just came back to bite me in the *ss.

Remember this mess?

When I attempted to take it apart, it fell apart, leaving me confused as to what initially went where.

Of course, the wiring diagram doesn't match the actual wire thingies.

My guess from deduction is that I can twist the green with the green/black together like the red is and pray for luck.

4 green wires on loom. 7 green wires on wiring diagram. 6 green wires on the actual turn signal switch.

WTF???
I just changed my turn signal switch about a month ago. If you need I`ll try for some pics to help you out

Please.

I'm wondering if the single green/yellow and single green/orange need a two into one female bullet adapter, since I can see no reason you can't run the left and right turn signal circuit on one wire from the switch.
 
IIRC the 4 in loom are the corners, as far as dia. goes you got 4, 2 more for brake lights and a power which all goes thru the hazard unless you have delete dthe hazard circuit.

In my loom, it looks like the hazard circuit and brake circuit are completely separate. I have a switch, the wires running to it and everything.
