Head light wiring

I have 2 wires that go to my headlights on this 56 but the pig tail that plugs into the light has 3 wires. Do I just put 1 to ground?

Re: Head light wiring

the lower wire of the 3 will be the ground I assume?

Re: Head light wiring

doob I have brand new headlight harnesses that came with my kit if you want em. I have a 58 so I used the quad headlight harnesses. The kit provides also for the single (55-57) lights so they are useless to me. Let me know if you want em...if so they are yours.

Hi 62lwbc10! I know this is an old post but would you still have the head Light harness for the 55-57? I could really use it, if you haven't already given it away.
Thanks Buddy.

Re: Head light wiring

i really appreciate the offer bud. I just got some new pig tail connectors in for these head lights yesterday so I'm going to make them work. I'd say I'd use them on my next truck but it's a 58 GMC so they would be no good to me.
