Default FB headlights . . . blow!

YES . . . I did the search thing. Read a ton of threads to no avail.

Problem, besides Firebird headlights sucking big *** moose ***** . . . driver side headlight won't come up even manually. Any suggestions (I should have never sold my SS, yes . . i deserve all this grief) on what to do?

Thanks

that is the only thing I HATE about TA's. I always have problems with mine. I put brass gears in and then what do they do....they motor wont even turn now! I replace the motor with a new one......it goes out 3 months later and it only gets driven at night maybe twice a month.....

Sounds like they work as good as all the f-body window motors.

Sorry for the no help.
