Don't know if this is of any interest to you,but after hearing about all the problems with the vacuum system on the hideaways,I took motors out of an 86 fiero(I wanted to keep it all Pontiac...LOL)and hooked up my doors to them.Minor fabrication of a couple of brackets in addition to using the existing motor brackets from the Fiero(Trans Am motors will work also as they are the same.)Had to drill two small additional holes in the bottom steel of my Endura(they won't show) and used existing holes to mount the home-made brackets.I will be putting in adjusting screws with rubber stops so I can adjust how far they open and close exactly.No more grills not lining up,and it will all be controlled by a non-hideaway headlight switch.Won't be put in the car for awhile(body comes off the frame in about two weeks)but unless there is an issue with not enough room,this should work well.Only for the guys who don't care about originality.
