Default How much Grease?

When you replace the bushings to fix your headlights to operate properly. What is good to use to clean the old grease off parts, and how much new grease do you need to use? Is white lithium grease the proper grease to use? thanks for your input.

I just wiped the old grease off,put lithium gresae where the tree bushing go,then put a thicker synthetic grese on the gears.
Note watch the small ballbearing at the end of the worm gear,dont loose it.Make sure it goes back,it's what supports the worm gear
