Headlight Adjustment? The headlights on my WS6 work, but one doesn't go up as much as the other, but goes up at the same speed. It's not hitting the hood because it does it with the hood up. It's only about a half to an inch difference, but it makes my WS6 look stupid. They are pretty well aligned when down, by which I mean that they have the same size gap between them and the bumper. Is there an adjustment for them? Pics?

I have the same problem, but mine was self inflicted. I was working on my passenger side headlight, but it took longer than expected and I had to use the car so I left with everything in the compartment empty and the headlight lid loose ( I figured if I didn't go to fast it would be ok). I was driving around for a little while and I forgot about the headlight lid and started speeding a little bit ('cough' 130mph 'cough'). That's when it happened, it popped up and hit the hood scratching it a little bit.
I tried to realign it myself with some pliers and managed to fixed it up a little bit, but I still can't pop it up without it hitting the hood. Took it to a very good body shop to see if they could fix it, but I don't think they could even figure out how to dismantle the headlight assembly. I think the only option left is to buy the entire headlight assembly. I've seen a few or them on ebay for $300 dollars, but there's no guarantee that they are perfectly aligned.
You could also try buying from GM whichever parts you think where misaligned.
