After Saturday's screwdriver vs radiator incident, today has a good news story
The car came from the previous owner with with no mechanism to raise the headlights. The factory used a pull cord in dash, but that was far too old
fashioned... Bring on the mx5 motors as some confusing wiring! But finally got it all together and it now works!
Looks like you have flex in part of the mechanism, it binds at about 2/3 open then continues? Also, it slams shut rather fast - you might find that
limits the life of the bulbs - from my Toyota's headlights it's a lot slower on the drop and it still kills H4's regularly.
Well spotted, it does bind, haven't quite worked out why yet. The passenger side is worse to the point it wont pop up 100% reliably. Rotational
to linear force engineering baffles me.
The pod's are directly connected to the motors, so Im hoping a bit of rubber, and some springs in the right places might dampen it a bit.
