How do you guys deal with these types of lights in the winter? Unlike a Miata for example, there isn't a button that will prop them up. Only way they go up is by turning them on next to the steering wheel. That leaves them ON though, even with the car off and will obviously drain the battery. What do? Don't want to risk them freezing in the winter when I need them.
Flip up headlights in winter?

Pic somewhat related, car is a 90 Celica GT

Install a switch that cuts the power to the headlight motor

Buy a 240, bask in glorious popup switch.
John Ramirez
Turn the headlights on.
Unhook the electrical plugs from the motors
Njoi as your headlights are now 24/7 propped up.
>Pic related I did the same thing last winter
Matthew Diaz
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but the lights can still turn on and off right? All this is doing is stopping them from flipping up/down?
Jacob Bailey
Yes of course. That only stops the function of the motors going up and down but still allows the headlights to turn on and off.

What's the issue with them in the winter?
Mason Wood
Sounds great, thanks. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Now my only problem is that the motor must be dead, since only one of my lights flips up/down. Both turn on, one just doesn't move
Elijah Cruz
Sounds like a dead headlight motor. That's why mine were propped up in the first place, couldn't be assed to spend $80 for a new headlight motor as one was also dead.
Just prop them up 24/7 and say screw the motors :^)
