Default Having problem w/ headlights

The motor that flips my head light on the passenger side has started acting up. When I turn the lights on or off the motor stays on for about 3 or 4 seconds after the light has flipped. The left motor goes off like it's supposed to.

Anybody know what's going on with the passenger's motor?
How do I fix it and what's the average cost?

Your bushings are mush. $6 plus shipping (per side) from Ecklers is the solution: http://ecklers.com/product.asp?pf_id=29304&dept_id=1476

There's a DIY stickied to the top of the C4 Tech/Perf section.

Also, I would do both sides. If one side is bad, the other is right behind it...
