Title: Tag on headlight harness incorrect
Post by: gimmea250swb on April 19, 2020, 10:11:51 AM

This is what the judges are referring to, correct?  I just need to remove it?

The tag for the headlight harness is typically over by the solenoid connections, white with red CCC and engineering number.  I don't believe there's a reproduction of this yet.  I have seen some install it close to the firewall connection, but have not observed any original cars with one there.

It definitely was not placed where it is in your pic.

Thank you Charles, you were one of the judges on this car.  The comment was, “tag on headlight harness incorrect.”  Do, it would be safe to remove this one, correct?

Yes, it should be removed from where it is.

tags are like paint marks sorta. you can lose points for having them incorrect but not lose points for them missing.
