Hi Cloyd,

Finding that correct female plug is an issue. Local Mitsubishi dealer has no idea, came close at one of the auto electrician outlets but cannot find the exact female plug. Do you have a part number and supplier for the plug please?

Regards.

Hi Guys, Been a bit busy and away on business. As promised some pictures:
Lense off.JPG
Carefully cut off the lense. I used a dremel.[
Ring out.JPG
then remove the ring
Tail lamp marking.JPG
Use the ring from the truck light to mark the position

Once the hole is the correct size and after cleaning the inside of the lamp. Silicon the lamp into position

I was using globes before this mod, so the wiring was already there. You can buy the terminals for the existing connector at Volvo trucks countrywide.

Thanks, Wild dog. Looks nice. Will have to modify for the 2002 model's rear lens as it is different. The idea is however brilliant!
