Fitting electric adjuster to manual facelift crystal headlight

Is it possible to remove the adjuster from the uk headlight and fit it to the import crystal headlight?

Need to replace mine as crashed it, the adjuster is good and import spec crystal's are cheaper

Can't be done. I have the two lights side by side, and the manual adjust is a thin splin like adjuster on the end, and the UK use a bigger adjuster with a ball joint like end.

As above, BUT:

You CAN get crystal lights apart, so if yours isn't badly damaged, could you use the glass off the imports with the reflectors and including adjusters, off the UK ones?
