Re: parking/ head light question
That sure sounds like a problem in the headlight control module. It controls the motors based on what position your headlight switch is in.
If you have a friend close by with the same year Firebird (must be 90+), you can swap the control module to see if the problem switches cars. That will give you a better idea what's wrong.
Hope this helps.

I agree, sounds like the switch is going bad. The headlights shouldnt pop up with only the parking lights on.
