Rewiring headlights

Hey folks!

I'm finally rewiring my '60 and have run into a minor snag. I don't have any wiring diagrams or manuals, so I'm just going off common sense (I'm in trouble!), and advice from friends. This may be a dumb question, but here goes: Of the 4 headlights on the '60 F100, which 2 are the brights and which 2 are the, uh, not brights? Thanks!

I think that the regular lights are generally the two outboard lights while the brights are the inner two. Also, the regular lights have three electrical prongs while the brights bulbs have only two.

Hope this helps
Bobby
