      My cracked sealed beam fried when the water came over my hood. Flooded in Carson. Will this set work with my 87 325 with the triple garbage sealed beam wiring? I see the pig tails

          It will but you have to re-wire the fuse box and add a relay to get it to work properly. Its not plug and play with early model cars.

          EDIT: and when I say re-wire, I mean disconnect 2 and add 2 or something, its not THAT much work but you do have to be careful.

                          If it helps, here are a couple links describing the wiring process...
                          The short one...
                          Basically when you get Smilies they just bolt up without an issue EXCEPT for wiring. From sealed beams: The sealed beams have a 3 prong connector 2 of the wires are ground and one is power. While the euro connector is 1 power and 1 ground, all you need to do is take the extra


                          The long one...

                            There's the fast way to wire it, and the high beam / low beam OEM style way which is the proper function.
                            Though it takes longer messing with the fuse box yes.
