Do it the right way!!

This is a Pivot headlight controller, It allows you to adjust your headlights for sleepy eye, and keep it that way all the time.
Its real purpose is to allow more air into the engine bay, along with some diffrent looks, and it works, in both areas.
It comes with 8" of wire, and I can also email you the instructions to install for a number of cars

so, with the pivot controller, your lights come up to the normal position once you turn them on?

yea, when you use your headlights, they come up, but when you turn them off, the controller cuts off power at what "angle" you set it at, so they sit at that level untill you turn them on.

hah, everyone calls it "rain gutter" material.

I used to work at cadillac, and it came off a CTS. I dont know why he wanted a new one (its just a little weird guard thing under the middle of the engine, kinda like the plactic panel on the camaros and such)
But this was the old one. I fit it up to my car and just cut it to size. if you wanted to buy one I dont think they are too expensive, but try searching around junk yards or such, or just go take one off a CTS, heh they wont ever notice.

Awesome!, thanks for the info. Im guessing you already sold/got rid of it?

I read you were returning the car to stock and all..

Well let me know if you have it and want to sell it =).

For some reason it looks like it wants to sneeze in the first pic.
