A-Premium Left Driver Side Headlight Headlamp Motor Compatible with Pontiac Firebird 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 3.8L 5.7L

Fit just like it should

They fit perfectly on my 99 firebird good quality they work really well

Noticed the passenger side headlight acting funny a few weeks ago and one day it started having a grinding sound after it was turned off/closed. This issue also caused the headlights to flip up by only engaging the fog lights. Normally they won’t pop up until headlights are selected on the knob. (Normal operation returned once headlight motor replaced.)So I ordered the motor which came in quick and replaced it without issue. The only difference I could see is that the original motor has a push pin molded on the main harness connector that allows you to clip it to the chassis to keep it out of the way and from dangling. This replacement motor did not have that clip but it’s a small sacrifice to have a working headlight. No more embarrassing grinding noise!

The ever classic Firebird problem ... the headlight gear grind. This part was a direct drop-in fit and installed perfectly. The motor operates quietly and my light goes up and down like it is supposed to, no grinding, no parking light pop-up.The one thing I really like, and the reason I chose THIS brand, is that the housing cover plate is secured with screws, rather than being chemically bonded together. This means that when the gear wears out (because we all know they wear down ... every single one of them does) I can pop the cover off, rotate the gear 180 degrees, and put the cover back on. I no longer have to screw with Expoxy, JB Weld, Gorilla Glue, tension plates, etc.Someone was finally smart enough to make a serviceable headlight motor!I had to ding one star because I ordered on Prime, 2-day shipping, and it took 3 days. Amazon told me it was delayed arriving at the fulfillment center.

The product was an exact fit for OEM. I didn't have an issue with the plugs, other than the primary base plug didn't have the lock. They improved the design by having screws hold the side plate instead of glue, making future gear replacements easier.

So the install was typical and easy enough. I went ahead and put abrass gear inside so there is no issue in the future. The housing has screws instead of epoxy which is better than OEM.However, I’ve had this on my TransAm for about 8 months. Nothing to hold the hardness into the wall. So it dangles. It’s extremely hard to get in there to add a zip tie and anything to keep it from hanging or moving. So I feel the weight of the hardness is pulling on the plug fitting over the headlight prongs. The electrical plugs that slide over the prongs have a lot of play. Not nice and tight like OEM, very loose. I used a little Siliconized RTV to help keeping the plug from sliding off.The head light has flicked on and off due to poor electrical fitment. Looking for a solution to stop this. It’s just annoying how cheap replacements parts are for an already cheaply made car.

I have not installed these at this point however looking at the quality of the build they look great and all the wiring and connections look like the original components

Bought two of these to replace mine, the drivers side one within not even 2 weeks of being in the car, the drivers side headlight connection, the plastic connector melted and now I have only one headlight that works, after not even 2 weeks. I’d like a refund/replacement.

Fast delivery, well packaged and everything lined up fine. The connections worked well with no issues. I installed myself after watching couple of YouTube videos.

Great finish to this product - looks brand new

I like it that I finally got the right one
