Screw in the stop bolt. Clean the threads before and it will adjust much easier to make adjustments
 Screw in the lock bolt on the back side  If you painted the car, clean the ground connection. Note on newer models it is a clip on fitting  |

Slip the boot on the back of the bucket and push the bar though from the back. Connect it to the pivot point on the headlight assembly.
 Push the relay socket into place  While holding the plate that the boot fits to in place, put the motor in place. You either need three hands here or be good at multitasking.  |

Hey one of the headlight covers hasn't been cut and buffed yet! I'll need to go back and do that after a few months.

Nice. Hey, what year is your car? I only ask because I tried to put on those late rubber boots that I grabbed off a 75', but it wouldn't fit on my 70'?

Awesome job Billy. Can't wait to see the finished car. Dig the white head lamp covers too.

My 73 2.0 L is also being restored. I removed many parts but the restoration shop removed the headlights. I put the headlight motors back in but I may be missing parts for the headlights themselves.
Do I have all the pieces (besides the white cover, which I have)?  |

For the most part. How about the armature? 1st and 3rd pictures in Post #4. 1st picture in post #5. You'll also need backing plates and M6 Hex caps. Pictures 2 and 3 in post #3
