Cheap Trick: Headlight Adjusters
« on: Jul 09, 2006, 10:48:50 AM »
If you are like me and your front end is destroyed your headlight adjusters are probably toast too.  I went looking around and the auto parts stores of course usually only stock domestic replacements...so I did a little eye balling and crossed my finger and sure enough, you can use these GM replacement adjuster sets for your toyota.  I used a large flat head screw driver to push the end of the retainer clip into the stock hole.  Then a couple gentle taps witht he hammer to fully seat it and your golden.

Cool. I'll remember that when someone disintegrates after making contact with the front of my truck's apparatus.

are you saying there is a chance that i can get my headlight to point at the road again?  :inthedark: 
I'd like to quit thinking of the present as some minor insignificant preamble to something else~~~~~

You better believe it buddy...it can work for you too!  The pack of two was about $3.00.
