adjusting headlight motors?
just put a pair of used headlight assemblies in my GTA and they don't sit right when retracted. one side isn't real bad, probably wouldn't worry about it, but the left side goes way below the fender line. i can't put my plastic bezel on otherwise it will catch the bumper. i've looked at those stoppers and i moved them up a little and it doesn't seem to work still. anyone have any thoughts?

Re: adjusting headlight motors?
The motors don't adjust, that I know of, but the big brackets that the motor & headlight mount to can be adjusted up/down/left/right.

Just whatever slop/gap in the mounting holes, IIRC. Been awhile since I had any out & looked.
