Default Argh! Headlight problem again!

Last month I had the passenger side headlight actuator go bad in my 99 coupe, and come to find out the other night the headlight actuator failed on the driver's side! Only this time is worse, I can't even manually raise the light with the manual **** on the back of the motor.

Any thoughts on how else I can crank my headlight up? Dealer told me they can't get the part in until next year so it looks like I'll have to drive it like this for a week. I'm thinking this is getting to be a very common problem on C5s...

Thanks!

Probably an age thing, how much the headlights have been used. I need to replace my drivers side, for now I've taken out the fuse to stop it from making noise when it closes and, manually running it up and down.

LOL :cheers:
