Re: ta fixed headlights If you just join the corvetteforum you will automatically get a 10% discount. that brings the price down to $900. They are making a killing on these things. I've talked to a local machinist who said that he could probably make the setup sans lights and lid for under $100. Add lights for another $100 or so and you quickly realize just how much profit they make off of these things. Having said that, I've only seen 2 cars with the Lemans style headlights installed, so it's obviously a low volume product.

About those brass gears tho, with the nylon gears, yes they gave way <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> , but it was because the motor was still trying to turn. If you replace those with something that wont give way, like brass, then the motor is still trying to turn, put now the force it was trying to put out on the gears is on the motor and could wear out the motor. I want the fixed lights to get rid of the problem all together <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
