Once I take mine off I'm going to design and make a few sets of captive adjusters, want me to give you a shout when I do?

I will get pics of mines on Friday... Me and my mate had to rebuild my quad headlights and rewire them. We Used threaded bolts and with a few nuts on each lamp, making it so you have adjusters. Maybe time consuming but worth it in everyway :) ...

The shape mines were before being reconstructed, most people would of got rid of them.

I will post pics when I have car back on Friday :)

Sorry i have confused you. On the late mk3 gti/vr6 r reg they came with standard headlight adjusters on the headlight switch. Also they have a motor on each light. My mate was breaking an r plate and i took the loom with headlight switcj and both side motors. I had them fitted to my original headlights and then i got hella quads put on and tried to fit the motor on but it would not reach the notch where the arm comes out from the motor. If i get a chance i will show you a picture. Or if you want go onto ebay and type in golf mk3 rare and someone is selling the complete kit (motors, loom & headlight switch)
