Default headlight repair

IS there a link that shows the steps involved in repairing a headlight motor (replacing bushings) on a C4?

Look in C4 TechTips. There are three or four articles in there that will help you greatly.

What year Corvette? I just finished mine last weekend. Not too hard, but I'd rank it an intermediate skill level repair at best.

I bought my bushings from Home Depot for .49 cents a pair. You will need six to complete the job for both lights.

The inventory number at Home Depot is 595609 for the nylon spacers (same as the Delrin bushings MAD, Eckler's, Corvette Central and others want $4.99 plus shipping for.
