headlight change
My sports car experience was Jags, XK120C, 150, and 63 XKE, and I have driven about 2 million miles, but too dumb to change the headlights in my Crossfire! I took it to the dealer twice and the lights went from great to **** poor after they worked on it. I suspect the light bulbs are in upside down. To see at night I have to drive on high beam adjusted as far down as possible. when they were fresh from the dealer's repair I cold see the road failrly well on low beam, but lit up the overhear bridges on high beam.
Today I took the light bulb out, but to do so meant taking out the retianer clip as well. It took forever to get it back in, once in I cannot get the clip to pass over the light bulb plug. I'm hoping to not remove the inner fender liner to get to it! Do I have to remove the light assembly?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK, I did not realize the electrical plug would come off without taking off the metal clip. STUPID. The passenger side light will not adjust "UP." I now have a blister from turning it, but cannot get it to the height of the other side, and the high and low do not seem to be the same as the driver side. Is there more than one adjustment screw?

There are decent instructions buried in here:

But I've found that it's is easiest to loosen the clips holding the bulbs in the sockets WHILE THEY ARE ON and adjust (rotate) them then. they don't get hot.
