Lamp Actuator
Replacing the lamp actuator on my C5. The one I’m replacing has two holes (unthreaded) that slide onto the bolts and then you tighten the nuts on them. My new one came with the holes threaded. I can’t slide it onto the bolts. Anyone ever had an issue with this and how did you put the new one on?

-Exactly what you are doing, and events leading up to you asking for help
Pics also help. Did you get the actuator off amazon or ebay motors?
