As for that RHD adjustment wire popping out - mine did too
Height adjustment is exactly the same as the stock factory units, ie: remove the rubber grommets on the metal frame above and use an allen key to adjust

I can't remember exactly - it was over a year ago now, I'd have to pull the headlight out and take a look at it again....
From what I do remember, I 'mucked' around with it for some time and even wrecked my fingers, but I eventually got it back in there
Let us know how it goes.....

Let us know how it goes.....need to take out the nuts (DONT TAKE OUT THE SCREWS!) lucky i undid the nuts first and noticed it was loose! and pull out projector assembly! Then look for the damn arm thing which is probably stuck somewhere!

looks good... how do you find the lighting dispersement compared to stock lights?

Its actually quite good! Would be better with HID or 100W globes but with the 55W globes i have in now it lights things up pretty well!

how much are you looking for a HID kit if you got one?

Unfortunately, truth be told, it's not as good as the stock headlights.
As I've mentioned before, these headlights projector lenses create a hard line/edge of light at the end of their projected light path, instead of a gradual smoothing out.
It's not a major problem, but it does take some getting used to.
There is a 'supposed' fix for this, I think JR's working on it, I couldn't be bothered as my vert is not regularily driven, so I'm not fussed about it too much.
Besides that however, these headlights are worth it for those fantastic looking angel eyes and neat looking projectors, they really do improve the frontal aesthetics of the Astra
