Finally getting my pile of headlight parts together to install on three of our four CCO's. '
I remember back in the old days there was a thread on this topic.
What is the consensus on headlight and bracket paint color? yellow or white?
Any good pictures of the factory wire harness for the accessory lights?
Thanks in advance,
A.W.

I've seen them both ways. I like them yellow though.

I'm partial to yellow also , I think it stands out against the white hood better, but I don't know if cc every painted any originally yellow .
I've only seen the headlight brackets painted yellow .
I painted some Original headlights yellow a while back and also had a white set .
Just for kicks and to see what it looked like , I put the yellow bezels on the white light housings and they didn't look bad . Not original but definitely cool.

I see a lot of cub cadets while going down the tracks , its a shame I can't pull over and ask about them .

Would there be plans to put a funny looking deck on the front of this O?
I have always liked yellow lights and brackets too.

Mike,
Not sure yet, as the Cub with the funny looking deck never had them during it's working life, it might stay that way. However, both earlier (4-number) O's are getting them.
