Default Headlights

Four months ago I replaced the
1. both headlight actuators
2. micellaneous actuator hardware
3. headlight actuator relays
4. headlight switch
5. check valve

And although the headlights opped up they did not do it exactly at the same time. Well today leaving the Tavern I saw in the reflection of the car in front of me both lights come up exactly the same time. So I popped them up and down several times and they still came up the same time, very cool. Then when I got home I parked the car in the garage and realized the lights were still on and hit the switch and bam! They closed fast not slowely one at a time as before. Remember the engine was off. I did nothing to the vacuum system in 4 months and now it performs as if it was brand new not a 26 year old girl. Very good day!

:cheers:
