I just bought some second hand projectors today. While installing htem i noticed that one of the main beams wasnt adjusting. Turns out that the light has come off of the adjustor screw. Is there anyway for me to get the light back on the screw without opening the whole headlight, or am i just **** outta luck? id really appreciate any help i can get with this.
also has anyone else noticed that stock headlights seem to be brighter and have better coverage than hte projectors?

you can pop that socket back onto the ball at the end of screw by pulling where the headlight bulb goes (take the bulb out of course so you dont damage it). it's a small opening on the back of the headlight housing, so find a tab or edge and with 2 fingers pinch & pull
aim the part to sort of rest the socket onto the ball and pull until it pops in. no taking apart the housing needed.

i know you really didnt ask for other information, but might as well mention it...
I wanted to add that you might get fogging, so seal the places where the clear plastic touches the headlight housing. was at the carwash a while back and a guy was wondering why his TYCs fogged like someone was making out in them, and why my halos didnt.
