Hello Rod, got the hood on and fits like it did before but have a park light to fix, pigtail is not making contact with the bulb so have to take it apart and see if it can be fixed or replaced.

It takes an 1157 Rod, got it all fixed up, badly corroded in the socket and the springs under the 2 wires were rotted away. Cleaned it all up and replaced the springs and sealed it all up. Works good now..
Going to do another round of bleeding the brakes tomorrow, pedal still feels a little spongy...

Good evening Illinois, Shaun, John, and Rod! 
Was a great day today,. no rain, sunny, and 72°.
With all of the rain our grass jumped out of the ground, mowed the front and back yards.
Tomorrow I help my brother install a window and help my BIL load up 30 stepping stones.

Neighbor came over and helped, once in place it's just 2 bolts. If Frances were stronger we could have done it. I can lift the hood myself just not in the position I need it and not scratching the hell out of the paint..
