Got my MOT booked for this saturday coming but noticed the other night that my headlights are out of line (one points higher than the other) and that one side does not adjust with the electric adjuster inside the car.

my question is will it fail on the adjuster. Not too fussed about the alignment because i can get the garage to that while its there but if it needs a new headlight i will order some depos off the bay (will they arrive in time?)

cheers

Just had a quick scan of the bay and found a set of GM electric adjusters. are they a seperate part from the headlight?

Reason I ask is that the bulb was recently changed and I may have accidently unplugged the adjuster

Would be very hard to accidentally unplug the adjuster as they are a complete pain in the arse to remove. But if you have then you just need to force it back into the hole and it should be ok.

would it be an MOT failure if the adjuster had give up the ghost or are these not required?
