Default headlight question

I noticed when i got the car, one headlight was "dimmer" or, a different color than the other, i never bothered with it to much, i rarely drive the car at night.

As with all things the headlights were on my "to do" list, so i replaced them both.

Heres what i found, same thing..."figures"

so i cleaned all the connectors, wiggled all the wires, ..nuttin.

However, i did notice while in the high-beam mode..they are both of equal brightness.

but in the low beam, one still seems dimmer....it could have something to do with the fog lamps, they go off when the high-beams are on.

so..here i am...friggin clueless again....... I'm sure when i go to replace the wipers, some other thing will go wrong.

that will happen over time with seal beam headlights, what i did is put in the H4 conversions, they are tons brighter







on the wipers make sure you get the ones from the dealership... the aftermarket ones are too tall, and will catch onthe hood
