Subject:Headlight adjustment screws

Does anyone have a procedure for replacing the headlight adjustment screws?
And adjusting them properly?

Looks like mine on my recently broken headlight are so brittle they need to
be replaced. I found nothing helpful in the Bentley manual. Does anyone have
a link to a site that has instructions for removing and/or replacing them
(preferably with photos?)

Thanks to all who helped with my request for a good used passenger side
headlight lens for my 1989 vanagon. I found one locally at a recycle yard
referred to it by a local vanagon list member.

I need to learn not to bump into shopping carts at the supermarket. The cost
of this mistake is passing the $60 mark. But I did have the good sense to
order some oil filters from bus Depot who has the headlight adjustment
screws at a great price (under $5 each.) [The dealer wants $6, $10, and $11
for the 3 of them, and $150 for the lens.]

For now the adjustment screw replacement is my next project. And adjusting
the headlights.

All help, referral to useful links, and advice appreciated.

William
