Headlight adjuster broken again

[West1]

Did mine today. The adjuster doesn’t work tho when I try to turn the Allen wrench.
I just used a razor blade to open the top.
Now I think my headlights are to high!
What’s everyone’s ballpark light height from the floor to top of light on a wall?

Drove around this evening and the light is not even touching the road, it’s lighting up stop signs. I have no adjust control, it’s pop the white plastic over the adjuster ball or nothing. I’m going to try and screw in a finish deck screw through the back of the adjuster housing and through the white plastic/epoxy. Hopefully the finish screw can act as an adjuster.

Ended up going with plan b while trying to screw in a 6-32 threaded screw.

I drilled a pilot hole with the intent to screw in the threaded screw. Once I did that, I realized how tight the screw was on the adjuster. Then it dawned on me to just cutoff the ball and have the screw adjust the headlight. Lo and behold, it worked pretty badass!

I just made a quick fix by applying glue to the head of the adjuster and then reinstalling it in the headlight. Make sure to wait until it gets dry. It works for me.
