Using a small screwdriver, remove black wire from the three wire connector. Remove green wire and replace with black wire. Remove brown wire and replace with green wire. Insert brown wire into remaining slot. Repeat procedure for the other three wire connector. (On the other side of the car)

Guess you missed where i posted this way back....and as far as headlight covers ( clear ) messing up light...well, lots of cars have them from the factory.

when a Verizon truck took out the left front of my bumper with his hitch by backing into me....that was the end of the old tall Ecklers sugar scoop trays in the OEM configuration, I reduced the openings by about 50% fore/aft, and modified the mounting with GOOD glue and some careful measuring and stainless screws and brought the mounting forward about 1/2 way, using later Camaro lights and mounts....and using junkyard parts and 1x2 PVC from Home Despot.....so not knowing IF my measurements were purrfect on the fabrication, I installed both right and left mounts, none are fixed the top is adjustable for elevation....AND SO the openings look much better than stock, no plastic/glass to diffuse the light....
see site for the front on looks....

[QUOTE=KrisB410;1591021899]I think the clear plexiglass covers make my car look better. I tried without them, didn't like the look on my car.
Otherwise looks a bit unfinished...

Stop the presses you misunderstood me...I think your car looks stunning, I was trying to express that the recessed headlights without the covers look unfinished...not your car....

George, did u consider the LeMans style lights for C3: http://www.mamotorworks.com/Corvette...s-kit-642347-1.
They look better on the chrome bumber C3's but may look good enough on yours also. I think the trick is to paint them down to the lamp position. Also HID lights put out more light but need a starter and starter circuit also - fairly expensive.
