Tired of your ‘Vette winking at you or cursed by the sleepy headlight syndrome? Is the idea of tracking down a vacuum leak on a 40 year old car the equivalent of getting a root canal? Its a well known issue on C3s but this new kit from Zip banishes all the aforementioned to the ash heap of history with their new Electric Headlight Conversion Kit.

According to Zip, the kit “eliminates the factory 1968-1982 Corvette headlight vacuum system with a newly designed electric actuating kit. Lightweight aluminum actuators provide smooth, efficient and consistent operation– something you may not be used to with your C3 Corvette.

The kit was designed for Corvette enthusiasts, by a C3 Corvette enthusiast whom was also tired of trying to fix their vacuum operated headlights. The complete package comes with laser cut brackets, electric actuators, and, of course, all necessary mounting hardware.

It is by far the most simple system available to swap out your Corvette’s annoying stock vacuum system– making it an easy afternoon do-it-yourself project. Four wire installation splices into factory wiring for the high beams, low beams, parking lights, and ground. The only modification necessary is the cutting of the headlight actuator support.”

Another nice feature of the kit is all the associated underhood plumbing is eliminated as well.
