Thanks for the reply,
The pins are interchangeable, but 12 or 10 mm is as small as they usually go.
I guess it will go back in storage or craigslist.

Yep, it's like 4-wheel drive. You don't use it very often, but when you need it, you need it.

Hi,
One of my headlights is out on low beam (both work on high beam). I can't remember: Are both headlights supposed to be on on low beam?

If my headlights go out again I think I will just buy a 2013 and sell the '07 as-is !
