Of course the day I go to do it, the weather turns, so alas Ill have to wait yet another day.

and please keep me informed as to wether or not your stick is similar in terms of placment.

Now that I know that is infact the adjustment stick I figure it probably is not sitting correctly in the track as you said, that and the fact that the light seems to have about a 1/4 " gap along the bottem towards the inner part of the unit where u can insert the tip of an index finger a little between it and the chasis of the car, (The passenger side Does not have this, cant run your finger under it even a little)

so FIngers crossed and breath held

cheers

well removed the light unit this morning, as easy as you said

Checked the track, the track was fine, but after a call to the dealer, a quick tweak with an alan wrench to the beam adjuster on the side, fixed my problem, reinsterted the light unit and voila, a properly directed light

thank god it wasnt more serious

anyways thats the end of my little adventure, thanks alot for the help deliriousga
appreciate it

cheers

Happy to hear it turned out well. :dance:

Sorry for the delay in responding, but we left yesterday to my sister's house and just got back. I just pulled the alternator for testing and two rollers while I'm waiting for the engine compartment fan to come in.

I checked the settings on my light sticks, and the driver's one is way out too!! I'll have to re-align it before Thursday when the fan is supposed to be in. Meanwhile, it's a great time to lube the seat tracks while the seats are out and see if I can find replacement bearings for the rollers that are making a good bit of racket.
