Thankyou Al for your interest.
                                           Yes the adjusters do what they are supposed to do but not enough height. I am not sure if the were always like this as the reason for replacement was that there was no pattern due to the old lense surface was crazed scattering the beam. Thanks again for your suggestions.

Hi Al thanks for your continued interest in this.
                                                                      Yes all adjusters do their job but do not raise the beams high enough. Not sure if this was apparent before the new lights were fitted as the old ones had weathered lenses causing the beams to be scattered and a poor pattern hense the new headlights.

are you sure you have connected the adjuster motor in to the ball socket as they can be a bit of a pi* if you have changed them over

strikes me that if the beam cannot be raised that the plastic adjusters are fubbered.

one more point the outer screw is for vertical movement and you screw it out, to raise beams the opposite of logic failing that the adjusters are nic nacked or seized or as said the ball socket on the motor is not engaged

Thanks again to all contributors
                                                Yes the sockets are all correctly engaged.
I do not know if this problem existed from installation as they were originally installed at the beginning of last year.  I had not driven the car at night until winter when I was travelling early morning and night. The car then got spit roasted at a roundabout on the way home one Friday and is being restored. So I am trying to sort all these problems out prior to getting back on the road.

one thing you could do is take em out and see if they have been put in right, or  a couple of washers strategicaly placed could lift the lights still reckon adjusters bu****** tho
