Default 67 RS Hideaway Headlights

I know there are a lot of posts trying to figure out why the hideaways don't work, but if I pull the buckets out and run wires directly from the motor to the 12V battery posts, shouldn't the motor work to open or close? Thanks for helping me out

You and I are in the same boat, however, I have been looking and looking for places that have the all inclusive solution and this place by far seems to have a simple solution
This is who I will be going with as soon as I get my car from the shop.HEADLIGHT CONVERSION INSTRUCTIONS

Just finished installing Retro-electro motors and relays. Pretty easy and work great.
Thanks

That's awesome!
any tips or hurdles to avoid?
how was the electrical part of it?
What else did you need or install or replace?

The hardest part was the electrical and only because there were a total of 5 splices. 1 hot wire to battery and 4 splices into the low and high beam wires for each light. Otherwise the directions were easy and straight forward. By the way splices were the hardest part only because I'm not an electrical person, but not too difficult.

I recommend this product and nobody paid me to say that!
