Wanted: JDM/EDM Headlight Levelers

I need the leveling system for my glass headlights. One of them is aimed perfect and the other is way off...All the better to get my car inspected with! Anybody looking to sell that setup?
Thanks

What EXACTLY are you looking for?

The motors?
The switch?
The wiring harness?

The entire setup minus the lights themselves. I have the glass headlights and the matching corner lights on mine...I didn't realize there was a setup to level them and aim them? I only thought the difference was that they were glass. So, after having them on my car for a long time it came time for the state inspection and one of them is way out of alignment. I'm assuming that the only way that you can get them aimed right is with this setup? There's a knob that goes on the dash with this setup right? Anyway, I need it all except the lights themselves.
Thanks

Not all EDM cars had the motors, I had one of these lights off of a car from Spain...you just need to spin the adjuster screw by hand. There should be a protrusion in white or grey plastic with a screw head poking out of it; that's your adjuster. BTW, the motors only work the up & down, you still need to dial in the left-right align by hand anyway.
I don't think the motors can be retro-fit to a non-electric light assy without changing the whole back shell, but I've been wrong before...

Oh, wait... you have JDM lights. Yeah, your left-right aim is probably fucked :lol: You may get them dialed in, but the beam pattern is wrong for left-hand-drive cars... If it's really bad, try shimming the mount screws with washers.
