Default Headlight Motor

Hello all,,,I am C5 guy, but a friend of mine knew I had a problem several months back with my headlight motor not working right. The motor was spinning past the adjustment stop leaving my headlight in the up position.

This friend of mine is having the same problem with his headlight staying up. I am told it will cost him approx 1,300 dollars to repair. With that, he wants to work with someone to replace it himself.

The question is, what is the part name, number, where can we order one?

This is an excellent DIY job.

Oh, and if the quote really was $1300 stay far away from that repair shop.
