Hi Folks! I'm now onto the headlight installation (while still waiting on motor and paint job).

So to put it together, I got in order from start:
Headlight Rim -> Retaining Rim -> Lens -> Bulb -> Bulb Setting Plate -> Socket Cover just as the parts diagram attached below and got the Spring set (part# 10) in place as well. So far so good.

My issue is, however, the lens does not align itself inline with the Headlight Rim (part# 2 and 4 respectively) even after tightening/loosening the Rim adjuster Screw (part# 7) which goes on 10 and 5 o'clock positions.

Highly appreciate any inputs. Thanks!

Are you sure you have the right parts? Maybe 180 out? It's tight to get everything in the bucket!

Thanks for the response. I believe I do. See attached pictures. Second and third show the mis-alignment.

The clip is seated in the ring just as the pictures in above post. My issue is with aligning lens to the ring.
