Of Few Older Corvettes 72 To 82--I've Seen Driving In California Most Of Them Have Headlamps/Headlights Stuck In Open Position...Read Corvette Manuals,Tells How Manually Open Them...It Does Not Tell You How To Close Them...

It Tells You If You Can't Close Them Take To G M C Dealer For Repair!?

Simple** Trick Manually Close Headlamps {{{ You Got To Watch Your Fingers }}}Lying Under The Front Of Corvette Put Your Right Hand Up In Inside Grille Opening --
While Lifting Head Lamp Assembly Approx. 1/2 Inch With Left Hand --With Your Right Hand Finger Push Right Angle Link {Pivot}Forward-Remove Hands -- Let Go Headlamp Assembly Will Close Slowly..

** I Did It Several Times My Corvette -- Baby Sleep Above Garage Rather Start Engine Side Exhaust Makes Noise...Then I Clean And Wash Under Grille,Etc.

Seeing My 68 Corvette Park In Shopping Center--I've Had 3 Different Guys Over Past 2 Years Ask Me Why Their Headlamps Wouldn't Close,i.e. Could Be Cracked Vacuum Hose,Dash Switch(s) Stuck Open Position To Road Dirty Parts,Etc. Really You Got To Oil -- WD40 Moving Parts And Thing's Esp. In Snow Country...
