I got mine from Breathless Performance. They give Corvette Forum members a 10% discount, or at least they did when I got mine ... like three years ago. I've also seen them from MidAmerica and Eckler's but I think they are just reselling the same thing from Breathless.

Default Might be and easy fix!

My lights were stopping halfway sometimes on my '85 after I put in a new Headlight Control Module. On the bottom of the motor housing is an adjusting screw that you move with a flathead with a nut around it. I turned that screw out a turn or two, and Viola!, my headlights have been working great ever since! If they're just going nuts, I don't know 'bout that.

It should be on the inner side of the light. Look at the light with the hood up (from under the hood.) The adjuster is the round **** on top of the motor assy.

Here are some pics of my lights.
