Hate to say I am a "Me too" guy but I am having the same problems of trying to get my headlights re-installed. I think everything I have is re pro-shell, connectors, etc. So needless to say, I am having a h#$% of a time to try to get them reconnected.

My 29 coupe is going to be a driver. So doing it "original" is not needed. So my question is how did you guys rewire the light connections so that in the future you can take off the headlights having a connector of some kind where the conduit connects to the shell?

Would like some ideas on how to go about doing a job that still looks good, be able to take off the conduit connectors and take the headlights off without having to cut wires.

Thanks
