Headlight adjusters second gen G body
I am in need of headlight adjusters that fit a second gen Daytona, must have enough adjustment, and will not break into small pieces when someone looks at them the wrong way. The last two sets have either shattered or would not move the headlamps enough to bring them in to position.
Thanks Paul B

Yeah good luck with that lol. I went through that on my '87 Shelby Z. I think I bought 4 sets to get enough that worked :(

You should be able to get replacements at any auto store in the "HELP" or lighting section. They aren't anything special.

They're also mostly garbage. They usually break when you try to install them.

You used to be able to get good ones (they didnt come from china) from the dealer but that was years ago. Last time I got a couple for my B-van they were down to what remained in dealer stock.
You could try heating them up in boiling water to see if that will soften the plastic enough during installation ?

I did use the HELP adjusters on my Daytona, I did break 2-3 installing them, but eventually I got them all in. They should have enough adjustment

Just wanted to update this thread. After a few more sets failed I gave up and just made my own units. So far so good, time will tell with this type of repair.
Thanks for the help, Paul
