Just cranked it up. Cluster lights and A/C knob lights work. Taillights work. Brake lights work. Only issue left is my rapid-blinking passenger blinkers, but that's an easy fix, I'll see where the burned out/missing bulb is and that should be that.

I guess I should get a new plug for the one that got crushed, still have the bulbs.

She's almost 100% boys! I'm getting excited [emoji16]

Thank you again for everyone's help. Not gonna say I couldn't have done it without you, but it definitely would have at least taken longer to fix [emoji6]

Reduced the resolution on my camera from 12MP to 2MP, lemme know if that's better.

Took apart the license plate light connector so I could rewire it (and not have to spend $15-$20 on a new one. If you've got the patience, and a fairly straight pick, to pry the prongs apart it can be done.

Also got a "new" blinker bulb this morning, gonna throw that in my passenger front housing. Turns out one of them in there was blown, didn't even notice it til I investigated.

Here's a few pics of the bulb connector, for inquiring minds. There's a little plastic hold clip that you have to press down while you pull the terminals out. I might get myself some of these bulb terminals for future use, instead if having to drop boat loads of money, literally boat loads, for new bulbs/connectors.

Pics are good now. Personal preference; I like a space between each photo so there is a clear delineation between pics. Some pics can meld together if the backgrounds are similar.
Thanks for the info on the clips.
