Thanks for your reply. Tony at Tony's Corvette diagnosed it but I had to move before I could get it fixed. I live in a small rural town now in Southern Virginia and found someone through referrals that works on corvettes.

If you want new, try Cultrag Performance - I have used them for parts and have been very pleased. If you don;'t mind getting a used one, any of the forum's used parts vendors can probably set you up with a good one.

The gears are a weak link in the C5 headlight. Much cheaper to replace the gear than the whole motor.
