Default Changed headlight motor

My hands are too big. This took alot more time then i had expected. Found out the motors off a 95 firebird have a different wiring plug then my 98 Trans am. Not a big deal..but made it take longer.

Then i put the two front motor bolts in the wrong way..put it all back to gether..tested it..and realzied my blunder. ARGHHH. Took it all apart, did it right...and YAHOO. My headlights both work now!

Oddly the motor from the older car is alot faster on the up then my 98 motor...but who cares.

I found it went alot better when i took the headlights off. A bit better access to the rear motor bolt. But still pretty tight.
