Its a motor that is sued to open or close hidden headlights or the passing 3rd eye. They can be electric or vacume operated. I dont know which onw sooby uses, as i never had a need to replace one.

If you have a 4-headlight car, you'll have to cut the grille around the door. I've seen it done and looking good so it's possible.

I think the hose is actually a drain hose for water vapor that can end up in the light... the door is powered by a motor and a mechanical arm.

Yeah I think I'm good, I mean it would be cool to have just for the rarity factor but I really like the setup I have!:grin::banana:
