Re: new headlights
Funny, I grabbed a set from a 2013 Wrangler today. Not plug and play, did you have to get some sort of adapter? The Wrangler lights I have a 3 pin and my 72 is a 2 pin set up.

Re: new headlights
Pics look good. Have you done the relay mod to ensure full voltage to (thus maximum output from) the new lamps?

Re: new headlights
If it was 2 pin you wouldn't have high and low beam in one bulb. My GMC has 4 headlights and they are all two pin plugs because they are separate high and low beam lights. All Chevys will be 3 pin plugs. One wire is ground, one is Low beam power and the 3rd wire is high beam power.

Re: new headlights
How much of an improvement would these lights be over standard halogen? I have halegen in my truck with the harness upgrade and I see pretty well at night.
