i have one question, hope someone could help me out, i like the sleepy eye thing and i found an easy way of leaving them where i want sacrifizing a bit visibility at night, if i remove the big relay named "H/L return control" the motor won't close the lights or open them, but my question is will having this relay off damage the alternator or anything else? Thank you

my 89 already came stock from the factory with sleepy eye abilityactually i think all 89s had a defect in the electrical system that did this.I know it has been posted before but all i do is hit my headlight button turn my lights on hit my head light button again to turn it off and then just flip my lights on and off until i get it where i want.
duantless, no offense but youre wrong, all you would have to do is go to a junk yard .. take the control arms off the lgihts and cut an inch out of the end of the rod, and then put the other end back in to the thing that connects the rod to the motor (or to the light frame) if it doesnt work, or there is a problem, then you just spent an 2 hours tops for labor, and 10$ for the control arms.

errr.... if you do that, the light will close and inch more than it's suppose to....
hmm.. what I was trying to get at is that you would not be stuck with that setup, and it would only cost 5 bucks, but yes now that I thought about it and read somemore .. it wouldnt work..
anyways Im gonna go with taking out the stock light fixture and fabricating a fixture that is stationairy and then cover the place where the pop up light cover would be with some sort of moldable glass like stuff... I dont know.. Ill figure it out..
I just know that Im not spending like 700$ on a light kit.. lol thats rims and tires right there..

hows this sound, when the lights close to a certain point they press a button shutting down the power to the motor. Run another wire from the headlight so when you turn the headlight on it flips the light up thus giving power to the original motor wire again....so price would be a button and a couple feet of wire, and a 6-pack of beer for when you get pissed off when it doesn't work
