80 gl 1600 4wd 130k
Well napa messed up again voltage regulator won't be in till tomorrow. So tired of napa it's not even funny, I live twenty miles from napa it is a pita when they do this to me especially when neither of my cars are running. Also I plugged in my newly re wired center light and the light came on but the door didn't move. I think the relay is the culprit I think when the motor seized it probably damaged the relay.

I pulled th whole front of my car off and am fixing dents and other small things. I resoldered the connections on my motor (thanks to turbo Subaru brat for giving me the info on where the wires go)

Thank you gloyale that information is coming in handy I think I am going with the relay option but I am tempted to go with the switch since I already have one.

Ok here's my soldering job And here is a pic of the whole unit Now all I need to do is use a little electircal tape around the harness and it'll be ready to install. Next i will have to see if I have to replace the relay, I think it got fried when someone tried to turn the light on when it was seized up.

Nice that would be awesome. Once I get the soldering done I can rewire the relay as gloyal said because it seems to be malfunctioning to.

80 gl passing light
It was badly corded wires and also the arm that opens the lid was froze up. I took it apart cleaned the corrosion and put back together. now I need to know how to wire the limiter switch the wires were broke off when I pulled it out. Does any one have a wiring diagram for the third eye? I need to know where the red/black the green/white and green wires go, they are the three wires that go to the limiter switch.

Okay I ordered a voltage regulator and I pulled apart the front grill and took the cyclops light out. I cleaned the corrosion out and unfoze the arm that opens the lid (it was rusted together) now I need to solder the connections to the limiter switch.

I'm going to pull the front end apart and find out what is going on with the front end and throw a voltage regulator in it, and use it. The rust in the front is most all of it there is a little in the back but not enough to total it

If I can find a way to get it going good enough to go down the road I might just keep it. I was just looking in a old shop Manuel for imports of that year and it told me how to fix the front end. I also noticed when I was looking at the suspension section That you can change the ride height in the back.

Governor "Apple Core"
As much as I hate to agree with gd I found a pristine first gen legacy for 950 needs head gaskets but other than that a very clean reliable car it's worth it being able to have all wheel drive and enough horse power to pass people going up hill. I'm not saying you shouldn't fix your old car but maybe it is time to start looking into a new one.

Legacy top hats on 80 gl struts?
I didn't order the Monroe strut tips because they cost to much and I didn't have the money and it wasn't my bad because the studs in the top hats didn't line up at all
