Headlight Adjusting Screws and Related Parts

This is true.
That said, for $90, and Canadian funds keep in mind and that's about double for anything internet based this days when converted to USD, then if it's a bargain comparatively speaking. New housing and adjusters.
The risk, as you know, when buying a ratty housing from Ebay, might include ratty adjusters too. Maybe not much life left in them.
Anyone, I've got more looking around now.
Thanks.

the oem adjusters rarely go bad, the aftermarket ones found on aftermarket lights are garbage they are all plastic inside, the oem ones have a metal sleeve

These are something I should look for at the UPulls and pick up a few. It's been a crummy summer and I didn't even go looking this year.

Check Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and OfferUp. There are part-outs all the time, and pretty much all the trucks (Sierra, Silverado), all the short wheelbase SUVs (Escalade, Tahoe, Yukon/Denali), and long wheelbase SUVs (Avalanche,Escalade Ext/Escalade SUT, Suburban, Yukon XL) will have what you need. It's the same part across 1500, 2500, and 3500 lines, too. If you PM me, I can look and see if I have them.

After a little back and forth with the supplier due to inventory shortages, I ended up with Dorman 1590119 and 1590118.
These are complete assemblies with adjusters and bulbs for $75 CDN each. That's from a Canadian online retailer. The Wrench Monkey. https://www.thewrenchmonkey.ca/

They fit as well as the OEMs and other than aiming, are excellent in as far as I can tell.
Considering the least expensive bulb I can buy locally is $11 (at Canadian Tire) the housing and adjusters come in very inexpensively. The adjusters were key as al four of mine were smoked.
Anyway, posted here for posterity.

How to adjust your headlights 2003 Tahoe

Good luck -- that was the first hit when searching YouTube. If it is crappy, feel free to comment, but please be kind to me. I've been awake for 35 of the last 36 hours (long story, nothing bad).

His lack of measurements seems a little slack.
I've copied and pasted the instructions from my Tahoe factory manual in the link below.

Headlight Aiming

I did a search and haven't found what I'm looking for and that's a DIY method for aiming the new headlight assemblies on an 03 Tahoe. Back in the day, with sealed beams, I had what I needed to get this done. Now, with these new one piece units and two adjustment screws, it's quite the same. Can...

It's quite detailed and should give a better insight on what needs to be done.
Now I just have to find a suitable flat surface and a wall that's 25' away.
