lazy passenger headlight
I have a 89 Convertible that has 13k miles on it and hardly ever driven after dark. Recently, I was cleaning the car and turned the headlights on to clean them and I found a problem. The Driver side opened and closed perfectly while the passenger side seemed to want to open, but would either partially open or fully open and then would not lock in place and droop. Does anyone have any idea where to start? My car is all original and perfectly maintained. Thank You

If you have the FSM, it will help with the headlamp removal and you can get the eckler's delrin bushings (3 bushings per light) to replace the dust that you clean out.
There's a tech tip on it here
