Headlight Position Not The Same!
I have a new '03 DX. The passenger side headlamp sticks out about 1/8 inch (from being flush with the front bumber cover). The driver side headlamp is slightly below flush from the bumper cover. The aim of the lamps seems true, but I am wondering if this is a defect that can be adjusted out. It is a nuisance in that bugs get caught in the gap at the lower lip of the lamp created by the protrusion. Is this a problem? Anyone else have a similar problem?

Thanks,
Peno

Not bumper height, headlamp protrusion. What would cause it?
