Welcome to LS1, the "vibrating" sound is actually the sound when the plastic gears strip out in the head light motors. Cost is about 35.00 each for the brass gears, takes about 30 min to do. That along with the window motors , the cracked door panel and the roof dimples is what we put up with to drive one of the best cars to ever roll out of the USA. Every time I wonder why I dont buy a new car I just take it out for a drive.

Exactly... except.. they were made in Canada...

Ok, I forgot...American cars made in Canada. I believe Toyota are assembled in the US...... Harley parts are made in China and Goldwings are made in the USA. Gets confusing to know who to bail out.
