Keep Your Headlights in Line: 1968–1982 Corvette C3 Headlight Actuator Left Inner Support Rod
If your C3 Corvette’s headlight doors are acting more like drama queens than precision-engineered components, the culprit could be a missing or worn-out support rod. The 1968–1982 Corvette Headlight Actuator Left Inner Support Rod is a small but essential link in the vacuum-operated headlight system that helps your classic stay sleek, smooth, and functioning like it just rolled off the line.
Why This Part is Crucial
The headlight actuator support rod is what keeps your headlight mechanism properly aligned and operating with confidence. Positioned on the left inner side of the actuator assembly, this rod helps transfer motion from the vacuum actuator to the headlight door linkage. Without it—or with one that’s bent, rusted, or missing—your lights might open unevenly or fail to open at all.
Your Corvette’s headlight door housing relies on a total of four similar support rods: one inner and one outer on each side (LH and RH). All four should be inspected for wear or damage, and this Left Inner Support Rod is an accurate reproduction designed to replace one of those key components with precision and reliability.
