Hi Mark,Mark R. said:Eric, glad you chimed in here. Are your ceramic connectors still doing well? I was going to solder some on to the harness wires after clipping off the old connectors, like you have done.
Mark R.
Just went and pulled the covers off to take a look. Turned over 67k this weekend. So about 18k on the ceramic connectors. The wires appear to have not changed since then. I can see some indications of heat on the blue plastic covering the ceramic connectors themselves, (at the bulb ends), and there was some white/tan powder under the right side cover, mostly at the top of the cover.
I have not had a re-occurrence of the intermittent headlight since installing the ceramic connectors.

FYI - There are links to the ceramic connectors earlier in this thread. I found mine on ebay. 90º H7 with pig tails of wire, not plugs. Like others, I soldered a butt connector and heat shrinked over the connections.
