Mid way thru my headlight retrofit and my Dremel decides to start shooting sparks. Crap. Oh well, it was 12 years old with a lot of hard use. Cutting holes in cement board 3 years ago did it in. Hadn't acted right since. It was about time.

I cant wait to see your retrofits Lenn. I hope you like the HID cut-off line. It drove me crazy, thats why I went back to stock housings with LED bulbs.

Replaced my driver side grab handle, finally broke off after 11 years.

Fixed the plastic cap on my driver side running board that came loose.

Touched up some paint behind the rear driver tailight.

Took the truck to the body shop to have some warranty painting done, needs some of the edges repainted as they are peeling. Shop will take care of it

Did oil and trans pan. Pan was pretty clean and virtually nothing on the magnet. I'll do it again in another 30k. Caliper is on hold....c clamp is MIA. Used a wix filter, store ran out of motorcraft and I didn't feel like driving to get one. Let's hope my engine doesn't explode.

Thats not what I mean. The cutoff line down the road, then blackness. I hated it. My H1's didn't move in the projector. I shimmed the el-cheapo bulbs, but when I upgraded to XB35's, no issues.
