I have never had to have a car inspected like that in Cali... Only smog, and they only look under the hood and at the exhaust, they could care less if I had a bad wheel bearing or sun baked headlights....

*sigh* that was my attempt at sarcasm, hence the freaked out smiley [&o]

Oh my bad haha! Yeah sarcasm is sometimes hard to make out on here. Especially when you (I) don't really pay attention to the smilies.

I have three piece headlights and it is much easier to first remove the outside marker lens with 2 nuts, then remove center headlight lens assembly with three nuts. Its now easier to turn the three adjusting studs, two are hexagonal and one adjuster is round smooth, use vise grips on this one and adjust the adjuster studs so the center headlight fits flush all around with the outer marker lens and inner lens, you can simply put the headlight in, then the outer lens in temporarily by holding in with hand pressure then see how flush all around it looks with the inner and outer lenses, it takes a few times popping the center headlight in and out and adjusting until it looks flush with the other 2 lenses and with my mustang this gets the lights aligned and more importantly looking better.

Seeing this thread made me trollloolollloolol

MD inspection is FTL

Being stock is FTW. When I had my 93 inspected, it passed on the first try.
