Head Light Motor Noise

Guys, whenever I shut the headlights on my 88 Formula, the driver side motor makes a horrible noise that lasts about 3-4sec. The light goes up and down as it should. Also its only the left side, and it makes the noise even if you only are shutting off the running lights... Help?

You need to replace the bushings inside the gear of the headlight motor. I sell the kits, either TDS 207280 (repairs one headlight) or TDS 209280 (repairs two headlights).
