Thanks for the help guys. I found the dimmer yesterday for less than $5.00 at Murrays. Didn't think to check the jeep dealer for the parts, I'l go today and let ya know.  Paul

The headlight retaining rings in the help section are total junk. Mine didn't match up to the holes for the mounting screws and rusted apart in less than 6 months (summer-no salt)  See if your local Jeep dealer has a set to fit your headlights.

The dimmer switch is still available at your local auto parts store. It
is the same one used by Pford and Mopar. The headlight retaining rings
are available in the help section of your auto parts store too. I paid
12$ a piece for them. The bucket you will have to find used.

Subject: [BaadAssGremlins] latest work on car.

I got the new carpet in yesterday and put the interior back together. I have to run the car to the shop to get the front seat redone as it is upholstered with duct tape under the seat cover. When I got done and started the car last night the headlights started blinkin on and of and then a big puff of smoke came out of the dash. I tried gettin my big Charley Brown head up under the dash to see what was goin on, but no luck. Ya almost have to take the seat back out so you can lay down up there. Long story short I took out the switch and tested it and traced the problem to the dimmer switch. The smoke must have poofed up under the dash while I was watching the light show. I noticed the switch didn't click anymore and on further insp. it was all black and melted on the bottom. It kinda looked like a magic trick,  Nuthin up my Sleeve. While I was at it I updated head lights to the new BRIGHT ones, but I have a problem. The lower tabs are broke off the retaining ring and the bucket, so I will be needing both.  If anyone has a pass side headlight bucket and retainer please let me know.  Light works good but only for spotting snipers in the trees. Thanks for listening and keep those cards and letters comin  Paul in Detroit
