tips on aiming euros>

[Benjamin Weste Pearre]

Update: the top screw (horizontal adjustment) does indeed take forever
to get anywhere.  The bottom screw on the driver's side headlight
works fine, and the load toggle works about right.  Unfortunately,
that's the light that's already aimed correctly.  The passenger light
is waaaay too high (outside the useful range of adjustment!  About 8
degrees high), and the flip switch doesn't work, but is hard to move
from one position to the other (probably not just that the damned
thing is impossible to reach).

So I'm guessing that the thumbscrew goes into some threads that are
attached to the lens, and that somehow the threads came out (although
there is a fair amount of resistance, similar to the driver's side).
Has anyone experienced this?  How to fix it?  Faulty unit???  In an
ideal world it could be fixed without removing the damned thing, but
I'm willing to remove it if that's what it takes, because the lights
are _gorgeous_ and I'm kind of eager to take them for a drive!

Also: installing the relays, I drilled some holes in the car.  Anyone
care to suggest a good way to prevent rust there?

Cheers!
-Ben
