    Hi folks,

    I recently purchased a NOS Twilight Sentinel kit for my 1973 Buick Estate. Part #981934. It took 4 years of searching to find one but eventually I got very lucky. The 73-74 differs from the 65-72 kit because the control switch is integrated into the headlight switch, rather than having a separate operating switch. Rare as hens teeth!

    Anyway, the installation instructions are comprised of two sheets known as Sheet #1 and Sheet #2. In my kit, Sheet 1 is there but Sheet 2 is missing. See photo of Sheet 1 below.

    I’m hoping that someone has a copy of Sheet #2 tucked away that they could share with me?

    Check the shop manual. Same drawings are often in there.

    Would you mind posting pictures of the components? I scavenged one of these (I think) out of a parts car I had. Just want to see if I grabbed all the parts.

    Here are some pictures of the kit. I do have some spare parts if any of what you see is missing from your kit.

    Unfortunately not for the Twilight Sentinel. There’s a description and service information but no drawings. Checked 1974 too.

    Figures.

    I sold a couple of them on here a couple years ago. I don't remember if either was '73 but possibly & if so I'd have probably taken pics of the instructions or you could see who I sold them to.
