Not worth it: Gear set

It is very easy to damage it by stuck headlights. Better just replace a whole new headlight motor assembly. Protect your money

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • disappears

The part is fine but no worse than the factory gearbox

The part is fine but no worse than the factory gearbox. Do yourself a favor and just bite the bullet and get the bronze gears or you'll do it all over again.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Minor imperfections

Not as solid construction as the cool original product

I've read tons of articles about the gears in these headlight motors and should have used a metal gear instead which only lasted a few days before being stripped down like a factory gear.

Cons
  • Style 90

Different from Original

Do Not Buy... The 2001 Corvette does not replace Original Equipment. I checked the size with a caliper and found it to be smaller so the worm gear doesn't fit the wheel exactly. Doesn't work after 4 tries.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Long Wait

First failure in a week

It may have been my setup but I had to use both as a set. The first one broke within a week. The second broke after about 6 months. Again, there may be an attitude, but I doubt only an average. Although it collapsed

Pros
  • Well done
Cons
  • Speed

Very cheap plastic. Stick to brass.

The material is very cheap plastic. I installed it, and the worm wheel immediately chewed through and started grinding. I took it apart again and half the teeth were already worn out, it looks like they were flipped in the middle. VERY soft plastic, hands off.

Pros
  • There's something in there
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Lasted less than a month. Complete garbage.

I don't normally write reviews, but I would advise against buying it. In addition to paying for the equipment, I spent $100 to have it properly installed at the repair shop. I saw the reviews and continued anyway, believing that this would be enough for me for at least 6 months. On Thursday he started dragging, but on Sunday it was still pacing, not even moving. Avoid this product, Google Firebird headlights, there are 2 people who make quality metal replacement parts. Save yourself the hassleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • understandable for the old
Cons
  • A few little things
