I got to replace my adjusting screw on my headlights, it's the fastener on the top that aims the beam up and down. the screw head is totally stripped.
anway, are there two different sizes. I called up a local shop, and they said they have ones that are roughly 2.5-3". Then I looked up one in NPD, and they have the "long style".
The last time I tried taking it out, (when I really stripped it), it seemed to go forever.
So...if there is a long and short version, are they interchangable?
