From a curiosity point of view, does anyone know of a 924 where the headlight opening was performed via cable?


I did a search and found nothing.

I modified 240sx motors. it was a pita and honestly not worth it. look to see if you can find some small, light headlight motors that you can adapt, maybe?

Well, as mentioned, for the sake if curiosity. My lights work fine. I was wondering if in the quest for simplicity or light weight anyone had pitched the stock mechanism and fabbed a cable system or something.
