    Gen 1 light???

    I just swapped a pair of alternators from one CUCV to another to get the gen. lights to shut off. Gen 2 works great but Gen 1 light comes on when its gen 1 starts charging? I thought they only come on when they are not charging. Any ideas before i take it out and something simple was wrong. Thanks

    B/O driving light lense

    B/O driving light lense

    Ok i got some CUCV black out lights from work and I looked at the lenses inside and they are fried, like the bulb got too hot and started to melt the lense. Tried cutting the silicone and punching them out but that was a failure and they just broke in half. Are they even meant to come out?
