upon reading the link posted on how to adjust headlight covers i crawled under my headlights. looking at the mechanics i realized that just by turning the 7/32 adjustment screw , located in the center of the arms facing the rear of the car. I could move my covers to the perfect flush position. no springs to take off, no rod to turn. It's too easy.
