Don’t be surprised when you open them up that the plastic gears turned to dust, lol. 1989 Pontiac Formula Firebird, 5.7, all OEM Reactions: Pontiac Trans Am

I replaced the motors on mine. For me, it's about the same in labor as to get to the gears. Sure, a complete motor versus new gears costs more, but I feel better about the full change.

I rebuilt my motors using upgraded gears over 20 years ago, and the headlights still pop up and down perfectly to this day. 1989 Pontiac Formula Firebird, 5.7, all OEM Reactions: Pontiac Trans Am
