Camaro RS Hideaway Headlights
Sometimes the easiest things take three times as long because of a faulty part. We were having trouble getting the hideaway headlights to operate correctly on a 1968 RS Camaro. We had gone through three vacuum canisters and were still having problems. Come to find out the canisters from OER (in the yellow and black box) are notoriously defective. Every one we ordered was defective and we found another person who went to their warehouse and tested 23 before he got a good one.
We finally got a different brand from
Eckler's Camaro parts. This canister was made in America and worked the first time. So for anyone out there fighting a problem with vacuum operated hideaway headlights, make sure your part isn't faulty and is made by a quality manufacturer. Sometimes someone elses pain can save you a lot of time.
