Front Ends Friday
Decided to power the headlamps in my extra '63 grille that I had hanging in my shop. My electrician buddy wired a 120v-to-12v converter to turn on the headlamps with a remote control for a shop display. Anyone else have 60-66 grilles displayed in their shop?

Re: Front Ends Friday
My buddy, Wade, got the remote control wired up. Here's the test in my office.

Re: Front Ends Friday
Thanks! I got it mounted on the wall in my shop. I have some white wire loom coming and will route it up into the wall-ceiling corner to the converter in the cabinet.
