Euro H4 picture request
Does anyone have a good picture of the inside of an H4 showing the layout of the wire retaining clips? I have a friend who disassembled his to paint it and can't remember how the clips go in. I thought I had a pic from my install but came up blank.
I don't really want to pop mine off so let me see yours!

I took pictures of that before I dissasembled mine to have painted. It will be monday before I can dig them up at the office. Putting them back in is a pretty easy process. It was those long set screws that gave me fits. They had a washer clamped down on them that I had to cut off and when I put them back together I had find a replacement.

 This is from another post. Not the best pic from putting those back in. The key is there are 2 sizes of clips. Make sure each light has equal amounts of each. I think the longs ones either go all on one side or are equally distributed throughout the assembly. My pics will clear that up if someone else doesn't.

I have a picture of mine that is pretty similar to the one above. I am almost certain that I took one that showed all the clips but I can't find it.
BTW - I never noticed two sizes of clips when I was working on mine. If there were 2 different sizes I didn't differentiate between them when I put them together.

I'm not sure why I'm thinking there were two types of clips. I just seem to remember there were. Maybe not sizes but different type. Anyway here is one of those images. I have several more from different angles if this one is not what you need.

 Ah, yes, digital cameras! Good picture! Always a good idea, especially for "newer" DIY types to have a decent "before" picture or two (or TEN!  ) so as to be able to ascertian where that spare thingy you end up with was supposed to go.  But seriously, not a better reference than a pic of your own machine/assembly prior to "going in there."  I think that you simply overlap a bit and go on around 'til the clips are gone? Maybe run a pattern, like tightening lug nuts?
