I have a 96M and have noticed a clicking noise when my driver side window 
reaches the top of its travel, but not on the down.

Also, I do remember seeing an artical in Miata Mag about adjusting the 
headlights...let me go through the back issues and see what I can do.

Subject: 	M has 3 problems --  one quite peculiar

Gang, I've noticed three problems with  my new M so far:

1) the peculiar one: the number 4 setting on my fan causes the fan to turn
off!  That's right!  Setting one puts the fan on low, setting 2 on med-low,
setting 3 on med-high and setting 4...  nothing!

Anyone ever hear of such a thing?!?!?!  (It's so peculiar to me I kinda
like it this way...   like a unique personality trait of the car or
something....)

2) the passenger side electric windows makes a click or knock sound as the
window is rolled down.  Like a click, click, click.....   function of the
window seems (so far) fine and the sound only happens when rolling the
window down.

Any thoughts?  Anyone have this problem as well?

3) the driver's side headlight is not positioned in a way that it's flush
with the hood.  Imagine a perfectly aligned head light that a heavy bodied
person sits on and the headlight consequently gets pushed down about 1/2
inch....

Anyone know how to adjust the headlights?  I'd prefer to do it myself than
go through the hassle of taking it to the dealer....

Thanks much!
