headlight wiring question
Working on a '19 non starter car. I have the mag headlights figured out. They work fine with the 28v bulbs from Langs. Question I have is the diagrams show a tube running between the headlights for the wires. I cannot find how this tube is attached of if it just floats. Does anyone have a picture of this detail or confirm how it is attached if at all? Thanks.

Re: headlight wiring question
Thanks for the pics. Clears it up nicely. It appears the tube was part of the old type rad so would be lost with modern core. Anyway, I have soldered one in so the wires will stay out of the fan. Thanks again.

I don't doubt that they light up, but have you tried to drive by them at night?
