As I was fitting the headlamp adjusters on my car (MY01) just before I went to Germany last week, I noticed that the actual lamp unit inside the lens on the driver's side had moved to the right (as you look at it).

Now, I've not noticed this before, so I don't think it is where the unit has been adjusted to make sure the beam pattern is correct (car did pass its MOT a couple of weeks back, so I don't think that is a problem). I've had a brief look inside the engine bay and it does seem as if there is a some movement from the lamp holder unit, which suggests that the it may have moved or be slightly out of position.

Couple of questions:

How many nuts hold the unit in place? I did try to remove the whole unit to check it in more detail, but it seemed to be stuck on the left hand side (as you look at the light) and I didn't want to force it.

Has anyone else noticed this on Morettes before? Mine are fitted with Scoobysport's (Philips) HID system as well if this makes any difference.

Hope this makes sense Any info greatly appreciated. I'll try and take some pics to show what has happened if that helps.

Slightly off topic, but where is the ballast box fitted on the drivers side ?

... dad's having problems getting them fitted ?

There shouldn't be any movement AFAIK: mine used to move, but only because part of the retaining plastic mount had snapped.
