This kit was very simple and complete. I was surprised at how easy these were to install. They work great and are for sure an upgrade from the vacuum motors. I would recommend these to everyone that does not have to have a 100% stock cougar. Great job on these!

1967 XR7

It was much cheaper for me to buy this than replace every single part of the Vacuum system that was missing from my Cougar. Works very well a is must for every Cougar owner to protect those expensive Grills,



The Only thing that I dislike is the welds on the angle of the bracket are only tack welded in a couple of spots, i'm sure the weld and bracket are strong enough to lift the whole front of the car. still i would of liked to see a clean weld all the was across.

This was the first upgrade for my new project. After seeing the video on the YT channel and reviews from other buyers on FB it was a must have.

67 Cougar XR7 Eyelid Electric Conversion

So, up front let me say that I am impressed with the simple plug in connections to the OEM wiring harness. I found the WCC video to be very helpful and I followed everything to the "T". Anyone attempting to make this move will be happy with the results, but let me add that you need to mark out time to take your time and do it correctly. This is a tedious job to move the grills as instructed but it is worth it. I removed the main issues with my vacuum system, which was both of the oem actuators. I kept them in the case I ever want to return to vacuum only. The rest of my vacuum system except the tilt cannister all work which I am thankful for in the long run. I kept all of that in the car as it still looks original. That is the great thing about this conversion. One, it is only visible if you are specifically looking for and at the cover motors. Two, the wiring is easily hidden. I found that I did not have any issues with any of the wiring as it is out of the box. All I did was connect to the harness and the starter solenoid "after" I aligned my eyelids and manually tested them up and down as in the instructions.

67 Headlight conversion - picked wrong star first time around ;)

Good installation video, instructions were ok but the video helped a lot! Originally wary of price, but the operation is as stated, very good and easy to align.

An excellent upgrade

Lots of bang for your buck here, and easy enough to install with the included instructions. The ready to go wiring harness which is included makes it extra nice. No more vacuum leaks or uneven/slowly closing headlight doors. I have another Cougar with a perfectly working vacuum system but I'll eventually swap those out for these as well, because their function is vastly superior.

Electric Conversion Kit

Quite possibly the best purchase I've ever made for my Cougar...



Extremely simple installation, and well made. The headlight doors now work flawlessly.The weight exchange is almost identical to all the parts you're able to remove with this kit installed. As an added plus the dyno test I had done says I've gained 7hp from the removal of all the vacuum. I would recommend this for anyone who doe's not have a Concours correct Cougar.
