IVE BEEN TRYING TO ADJUST THE HEADLIGHT LID AND I JUST CAN'T GET THIS THING RIGHT. NO MATTTER WHAT I DO, WHEN I PUT THE LID BACK ON IT TOUCHES THE FRONT QUARTER PANEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.
I GOT TO THINKING, SOMETHING ELSE HAS TO BE THE PROBLEM SO I TOOK A REALLY CLOSE LOOK AT THE POSITION OF THE ENTIRE LIGHT FIXURE OR UNIT AND NOTICED THAT THE WHOLE THING LOOKS LIKE IT NEEDS TO BE ROTATEDTOWARDS THE HOOD. NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ADJUSTMENT SCREWS ON THE TOP PIECE COVERING THE LIGHT ITSELF. EXAMPLE, WHEN YOUR STANDING IN FRONT OF THE CAR YOU WOULD NEED TO ROTATE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT, LAMP AND ALL TO THE RIGHT ABOUT A HALF INCH. ALSO, THE LAMP UNIT PART OF THE ASSY NEEDS TO BE TILTED UPWARDS. I NOTICED THERE ARE 2 LONG SREWS THAT ARE USED TO ANCOR THE FIXTURE IN THE UNIT AND THEY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE MADE TO ADJUST THE PART IM TALKING ABOUT. THERES EVEN A LITTLE WHAT LOOKS LIKE A STEM FOR TURNING BUT ITS SOLID AS A ROCK.
DOES THIS MAKES SENSE TO ANYONE? I MIGHT ALSO NOTE THERES WHAT I WOULD CALL A "BIG" GAP ON BOTH THE HOOD SIDE AND TOP PART OF THE HEADLIGHT.
THIS PROBLEM REQUIRES MORE THAN ADJUSTING THE PLATE ABOVE THE LIGHT BUT HOW DO I DO IT. I EVEN LOOSENED THE BOLTS THAT HOLD THE WHOLE THING TO THE CAR AND THEN TIGHTENED THEM UP EACH A LITTLE AT A TIME. DIDNT WORK..
PLEASE, I NEED ADVICE ON THIS.
THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT UNIT WAS REMOVED PRIOR TO THIS PROBLEM AND ONLY AFTER PUTTING IT BACK IN THE CAR DID THIS NIGHTMARE BEGIN. ARE THERE ANY PHOTOS AND OR DIRECTIONS THAT SHOW A COMPLETE INSTALL OF ALL THE COMPONANTS TO THE HEADLIGHTS?
MY DRIVERS SIDE WAS REMOVED AND REINSTALLED WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL.
ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.
THANKS!
