71 headlight doors open all the time
My dash is dismantled. Headlight doors have been in the “up” position since ive had the car
They work - i did fool with some of the vac lines one day while the engine was running and both closed - then i mustve disconnected and shut the car down - alas they are back up.
is there a way to manually lower them until at some time I
sort out all the vaccuum lines and put the interior back together? Or does vaccuum really keep them
closed even when the motor is off?
ive only fooled with elec C2 headlight doors
