Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap

The conversion was pretty easy. I just bought a couple of 1157 bulb sockets with wires(try to find some that are small as they need to go inside the housing). Take the light apart, remove the old socket then fit the new socket in it's place. I was hoping to attach the socket coming in from behind the housing, but it is a very tight fit against the grill when installed so I just put it inside the housing. While it was all apart I cleaned up and repainted the housings.I also attached a ground wire from the body of the housing. Even though it is supposed to ground through the housing, a little extra will be good. I took a couple of after pics...
