Congratulations! if you can, start spraying/coating the high
pressure line nuts at the accumulators with penetrating oil of your
choice, NOW. If they cause a problem, the line rusts to the nut.
Nut to accumulator is generally not a problem, but coat the threads
anyway.

It is pretty simple if I recall, you basically unscrew them and screw
them back on. I think there are some nuts that tighten down or
something, but it is readily apparent if you look at them.

I have two thermostat switch for heaters that I found at an aircraft supply
outfit. One turns on at 35F, the other at 20F. It's called a "Thermo Cube".
I intended to use one for the '76 OM617 running 20w-50 oil, then I
discovered the OM603 and Mobil 1, so never had to use them.

I think the euro towing package for sedans included adjustable headlights and
SLS.
