How to replace headlamp motor for Firebirds and Trans Ams (easy way)

This is a quick how-to video fore replacing the headlamp motor on Firebirds and Trans Ams. The video will show you either how to replace the whole thing, or how to rotate the motor gear 180 degrees to use the opposite side. New gears can be bought for $15 or buy a whole motor for around $90 at local parts stores.I also want to mention: I have seen some situations where people have finished the install and put it all back together and then the headlamps go up and down opposite of each other. If you run into this, it means you have the control arm on the wrong side of the bump stops. Easy fix!Sorry I dont say anything in the video. I hate the sound of my own voice.
