Okay guys and gals, it was inevitable. Right headlight motor gear finally stripped. My question to you all is this.........Has anyone used the brass gear rebuild kits? If so, are they holding up? Is it a waste? Or should I just rebuild with the plastic ones? lemme know.

Thanks,

Rev

Brass ones work great, and they last a hellova lot longer!

Definitely go w/metal! You won't regret it, and they last forever and if you go back with plastic, it will just leave you stranded. Plastic WILL break again, sooner or later.
