OHC Mod Kinda Done....

OHC Mod Kinda Done....
Well I "did" my OHC today....
After spending +/- 6 hours doing it, I CANNOT get the front clips to engage whatever I do. I have tried bending the clips out a bit to try to get them to latch better, but they just pop right back out again. so my OHC looks kinda retarded cause its screwed in on top but not latched at the bottom...
Second problem: The dome lights do not work. The lights do not power on when I open the door, hit the lamps buttons, or turn the dimmer switch to the on position in the truck. All the power for those lights should come from the factory dome, correct?
So I probably have a wiring issue there (OMG!%&#*^#)
I ended up getting really frustrated with it so I need to take a breather and fix the bugs.
The good thing is the rest seems to work...
here's some pictures:
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Oh and I just went out and checked.... When you turn the headlights on, the console dims, but it flickers :(

thats just the joy of putting it in a new ranger, they changed the headliner and it doesn't fit properly....i just cut the headliner at the front entirely off (but to the inside edges of the OHC) and then it pushed in and the headliner was tight up against it so you can't tell that its cut right off. as for the flickering, I have the same issue, but i don't dim my dash lights so I just make sure its all the way up
