Stop It Right: 1963–1967 Corvette C2 Headlight Motor Y Stop with Bolts
When your C2 Corvette’s iconic flip-up headlights don’t stop exactly where they should—or worse, over-rotate and grind—you might be missing a small but essential piece of the puzzle. The 1963–1967 Corvette Headlight Motor Y Stop with Bolts is the part that tells your headlight door when to quit moving. And when it fails, so does the precision your Corvette is known for.
Why This Part is Essential
The headlight motor Y stop acts as a mechanical limiter, preventing the motor-driven headlight housing from rotating too far in either direction. Without this component properly in place, the motor may overdrive the headlight door, leading to misalignment, stripped gears, or contact with the surrounding bodywork or paint—damage that no Corvette owner wants.
This Y stop mounts directly to the headlight motor and is specifically engineered for 1963–1967 Corvettes. It includes the correct mounting bolts, ensuring a secure, hassle-free installation. This part restores your headlight doors’ open/close accuracy and helps prevent costly damage.
