Spot/Flood Lights

[g_man1146]

Hi Scott,

I rebuilt the ones on my '90. They, too, were frozen in place. In
addition to cleaning and lubricating I replaced the rubber boots
(don't know if they are still available) and also replaced the relay
that switches power through the joystick to either set of motors.
Worked great after above was done. Total parts were only a few
dollars, relay was from Radio Shack, bulbs at local NAPA store.
