Headlights???
Have to look at the headlights on my new to me 75 Bronco.
Not sure right now what the deal is.
Just know that when I pull the switch on the dash, no headlights.
Running lights, turn signals, brake lights, all good.
Just no headlights.
Bright or dim, nothing.
I will start looking closer to see where the trouble is as soon as it warms up around here.
But as I wait for that, I was wondering about upgrading from the sealed beams.
Anyone ever do anything like these?
7"7x7 H6024 Round Chrome Glass Projector Lens Headlights Fits Honda Ford Dodge | eBay
Trying to figure out how they need no modifications but come with pigtail and there are 2 extra wires for the blue halogen bulbs....???
Anyone do any other upgrades to theirs that were worthwhile?

There is no fuse, only a thermal breaker so you can rule that out. Check for power at dimmer switch with headlight switch pulled. No power=bad headlight switch, thermal breaker has gone bad or you are not getting power to it. Your lights will be held in the same way as stock. Wiring them, should come with instructions.

headlght upgrade
Many go right to the H4s.
They put in a relay & heavier wires.
The pig tail is available @ the big box prts warehouses, bulbs too H4 (& is that same as 9006 ?). All of it's there on the shelves. Just B sure U get the right size 'bucket' that'll fit the bronk.
/OR/
You can go w/the whole package from all the usual suspects but that's too expensive 4 me. After all Y do U have a bronk (non mechanics like me can mod em).
(WH, Jeff's, BCB, Tom's, guys in Castle Rock, TN, etc, etc).
That, discs, 1 inch BL, & 5 speed R about all these babies need for today's hwys. (actually it's "drivers" - the other drivers R the 1s U need all this stuff for).
PS: U may need a headlight switch or have a bad ground for the posted problem's correction.
