Keep Your Headlights in Line: 1968–1982 Corvette C3 Headlight Actuator Right Outer Support Rod

If your C3 Corvette's headlight doors are sticking, slow to open, or failing to align properly, the issue may be more than cosmetic—it could be mechanical. The 1968–1982 Corvette Headlight Actuator Right Outer Support Rod is an essential part of the vacuum-actuated headlight system, ensuring crisp, responsive motion every time you flip the switch.

Why This Part is Crucial

This outer support rod, mounted on the right side of your Corvette’s headlight assembly, links the vacuum actuator to the outer headlight door mechanism. It’s one of four rods that balance and stabilize the door movement—preventing wobble, hesitation, or outright failure. If this rod is missing, bent, or rusted, your headlight operation will suffer—and so will your Corvette’s iconic appearance.

Your headlight door housing uses four total support rods: an inner and outer on both LH and RH sides. Each should be inspected for signs of wear or corrosion, and this Right Outer Support Rod is a faithful reproduction of the original for a perfect fit and reliable performance.
