They are a real pain to glue Tom   when i changed my old lamps to projectors they were both snapped, i don't think you can buy the part so i ended up swapping over the adjusters from my old lights :-/

Ill give Dave at baylis a call tomorrow

dont think the scrapie will let me have two !

the vectors are different and the astras are ah well

[HerefordElite]

you do mean the plastic adjuster that fits into a ball joint on lamp and a screw at other end?

i still have my old non projectors (no adjusters left) if you need any other bits Tom

[tmx]

Its the black plastic thing that clips to the top of the light and is threaded onto the beam alignment adjusters not the small white ball thing that the lifter motor connects to

[HerefordElite]

yeah they the bits thay snapped on mine :-/ older lights had a less brittle white plastic adjuster whic i used to bodge mine together.

i think there was a rumour that Mr DTM was looking into a metal replacement :-?

[HerefordElite]

give me a call if you need a hand Tom

Ive just thrown a set due to the adjusters being in bits

[Marks DTM Calib]

Well you should have thrown them my way!

Currently trying to source some milled aluminium profile in order to make some alloy adjuster sections up!

[Elite Pete]

Im a hoarder, ive kept the bits just bined the adjusters, like all good hoarders, you never know when they will come in handy

[tmx]

been to scrapie and the idiot wanted two hundred pounds for a pair of lights he reckons they are hids but they are really off a gls and are normal projectors ie wouldnt accept my arguement that they werent

The adjusters are not listed on epc so cant get new ones

think ill post a wanted post !

[Marks DTM Calib]

So, any more of our members out there who can get aluminium milled?

I have a profile drawing!

As long as it's not too complex.
 Not my inablity to use a miller but the lack of basic milling tools we have - or not have.

Day after you've finally binned them is my experience.

BTW: I might know someone who could help with the milling. Any idea what sort of quantity we would be interested in / how much work is involved? My cousin has access to a workshop full of CNC tools.
