headlight wiring harness

[MrBroncoII]

I have an 88 eddie bauer and was wondering if a headlight wiring harness off of a 86 eddie bauer will work for it?

It should do you have the glass head lights or plastic?

should be the same.. but i'd get the heavy duty one from LMC. if you wanna upgrade your lights anyways

 

[MrBroncoII]

thanks, they are glass.
I'll check the LMC but if this one will work I'll use it for now.can't beat free

FREE is good...
the LMC one is a bypass of the original and is for heavy duty, puts a relay on it. i had to use it b/c the aftermarket headlights were melting my dimmer switch

 

[MrBroncoII]

no kidding. wkat was the wattage for your lights? the reason I ask is on the 88 i bought it from a friend who had just aquired a junk yard and it was in there. the harness had a melted wire within in it including the fusable link which someone at some point jumped with som alligator clips. I wonder if that was the problem in the first place.

+1 on the LMC HD headlight wiring harness ! ! !

That is the single best improvement I've put on my BII.
