Sleepy eyes??

Anyone done a sleepy eye conversion for T/A's? I just really hate the big bug eyed look of the open headlights. I'd like the headlight to open just a few inches and expose a narrow headlight, maybe one from like a early 4th gen camaro. If i need highs i have fog lights.

How do you control the motor to stop?

Ancient Chinese secret

They stop from resistance. Add a stop piece on the housing frame for the motor arm to hit and the motor kicks off.
