Does anyone have some pictures of how the headlight buckets mount to the grill on a 66 f100? I've had my truck apart too long and haven't been able to just look at it and figure it out yet.
Same goes for turn signal housings.

Re: how to mount headlight buckets
Turn signal housing is pretty simple, just remember there are left and rights for both inner and outer pieces. There are two special screws that hold the lens in, and don't forget the gaskets. As to the headlight buckets, there is a spring that holds one point and two headlight adjusting screws . Can be a pain getting everything lined up. The headlight screws screw into special plastic inserts mounted to the grill I believe. The heads of the screws are slotted and fit into the tqabs on the bucket .
Hope this helps, I know you asked for pictures just don't have one at the moment.

I found some Dorman 42117 kits. I think they will work.
