NOTE: In 1982 Corvettes, and possibly some 1981 models built at the Bowling Green plant, the positions of the left and right actuators were reversed. On 1968-1981 Corvettes, the curved tube on the back of the actuators points outward, while on 1982 models, it points inward. As a result, for 1982 models, you will need to order the left unit for the right side and the right unit for the left side.
