Thanks again for the good info.Five bolts on each headlight ass. I dropped it down and pulled it out on motor side.When I put them back I will be sure no wires are in the way,that was the only small problem. Is there a procedure to check the actuators? Don't want to put back bad ones.

Vette(s): 1981 red with silver interior,350(L-81), 350TH, glass t-tops, aluminium rims, 1980 Black/ Black int., 350 GM crate engine/350TH, 1976 black/ saddle int., L-82 w/headers, holly carb, Hypertech ignition

 I use a hand held vacume pump to test mine or just suck on the fittings.  that will tell you if the diaphrams are good.  If the rod seals look worn, I would replace them while you have the actuator out.   Thats generally a problem area.
