Default Testing the Line Lock

After wiring the line lock Saturday, I decided to see how well it worked.

getting those three headlights on my car is costing me $146. I had to order adj screws, retaining screws, retaining rings, and the halogen bulbs I got from Autozone. Autozone almost never has those sized bulbs in stock, but they did this time.

BTW, the door was open.

I was getting desperate, and didn't want to pay shipping. The local NAPA where I have an account, doesn't sell them.

All I have left to buy for my car is door window weatherstripping, 20gal aluminum fuel cell, air cleaner, and another tach! I still have to install the door panels, headliner, passenger seat, adjust the timing advance, and tune the Dominator carb. fuel mixture.

Thanks 68sschevyII.

In my town (Norwich) Advance Auto is directly across the street from Autozone. I never go to Advance Auto because the people who work in the local store lack in customer service and common sense .
