Gary,



Thanks for the tip.  Rotus can now get rid of her droopy eyelids without

resorting to a plastic surgeon.

I think it's because those whoosies with M Editions never notice that the

headlight covers are bent after they pick it up from "Bubba's Kwik Lube". I

posted this a few months ago but here it is again...



________________________________________



To adjust your headlight covers so that they line up with your hood (Note:

this gets rather technical and you may want to print this off for reference

while performing the procedure on your car):



A- Take good hard look at your hood noting the area(s) where the headlight

covers are below the edge of the surrounding hood. (You may want to do this

in the privacy of your garage)



B- Remember where the areas are that are out of alignment. You may want to

mark them using masking tape.



C- Raise hood and prop it in place.



D- Place both hands on the headlight cover with each hand on either side of

the previously marked (or remembered) low area. 



E- Wrap your fingers under the cover and...



F- Pull up *VERY CAREFULLY*!



G- Close hood to check your work. If it still is out of alignment, go back

to step C.
