[Bmcu] Headlight adjusters

[Robert Green]

Lee,
After owning a few Lotus cars I assure you these parts are made specific to the task. Many nylon parts are used to prevent things like excessive stress to fiberglass parts etc. to source these parts try companies dedicated to Lotus cars like Dave Bean engineering in California.
Cheers,
Rob
