The original Bradley mock-up called for a mechanically operated lever to raise and lower the concealed headlight covers. Very uncool, and just plain not good. Another owner, "StrayCat", had a simple solution. Grab an electric window regulator from the boneyard, and mount it to the chassis. Walah... instant electric headlights...

 


Here's the cable operated headlight door currently in place.



Here's the electric window lift i ripped out at the salvage yard.

I simply took the slide assembly off (although it probably would be fine with it, it just made it harder for me to mount. I bolted it in, hooked one end to the cable assembly and the other slack portion i just attached a heavy spring to. I dont have limiters or anything, just a momentary reversible switch to operate it.
