Does anyone have a PDF they can send me on the coupe supplemental instructions. I seem to have never gotten them. I'm running into wiring the hella headlights and realized I'm still running on S instructions. I'm assuming I'll need them after wiring phase too.
Thanks.

The most recent manual update, I think, is version 1Q. If you don't have it, call Cortnie at Factory Five and she will have the pdf sent to you. The 1Q update includes some info about mounting the new headlights but these threads may be helpful:

Today I wired my new headlights and Frank is correct that the low beam wiring should go to the headlight (back of fixture) and the high beam wiring goes to the shutter (side of fixture).
Also, see this thread about making the headlights waterproof and removable. It worked well for me.

Will call courtnie tomorrow. I saw the first link, however must have skipped over the waterproofing and removable set up. Awesome, thanks Pete! I gotta see what's in the IQ version, hopefully I wont have to ask for a pic from you guys.
