Default Brushes for headlight motors

I had some brushes made for the early Fiero headlight motor brush/contacts. I see some here have posted looking for headlight motor brushes. If anyone is willing to try mine to see if they work on the Corvette I'll gladly send some out free for R&D. There are some different electrically conductive adhesives out there. One guy has been using the stuff on eBay and a little super glue to insure better holding power to the brass arms. The super glue may or may not be needed. My brushes are also larger (I'm not sure how large the Corvette brushes are) so they have more surface for the glue. They have flat faces so there is no need to align them to the armature. They are the correct material, not soft carbon.

Thanks
