I'm happy to hear that the brass gears don't make the headlight motors noisy. I had considered using them when, (not if), the current rebuilt ones bite the big one again, but was afaraid they'd sound like coffee grinders.
I'll also chime in with a big recommendation for Rodney. Not only are the gears he is selling lower priced than the ones on Evilbay, but I've had nothing but great experience buying from him and his stuff is first rate quality. There's a big difference between just replacing parts and actually FIXING a problem, and Mr. Dickman seems to have a real talent for having products that actually make things *better* and not just "patching" a problem with cheap replacements.
