Title: Who repaired headlight adjusters?
Post by: car5car on 04 January 2013, 00:02:55
There are 2 things left to do on my Catera. It is painting hood (bonnet?)/front bumper cover and gluing headlight adjusters. Both headlights are broken.
Who repaired adjusters? Is that possible?
Thanks.

I have actually just done mine today after having them for over a month and it was a fiddly job but easy enough though, the aluminium (aluminum) adaptors are a very good product and if you look up sparkesandnoise on here he will have them for £12 plus post, which unfortunately will be a fair bit for you, I know somebody asked and it was £10 delivery to Ireland if you message him he will let you know, there are diagrams and details on how to do it here. http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90638.0 There is help on word and you can download it

Yep, don't try fixing the plastic adjusters, just replace them with aluminium ones.
