it would seem that Renault made the internal suspension of these headlights out of egg shells.
I have several of them and the "guts" just swinging willy nilly.
have any of you encountered this problem ?
besides replacing it, have anyone "fixed' it ?
please let me know

| I believe the 172 models came with xenon front lights and would have automatic motorised height adjustment. |

I could be mistaken as I am not sure what Xenon's are, but this car seems to have HID's to me.
It has a seperate ballast and all that stuff.
but yes, it is motorized and all the internal mechanisms of the headlight is broken except one or two |

they come with xenon lights..
maybe the motorized strap in the mechanism to adjust the headlight have become brittle and the end result, broke apart. |

it more of a little plastic support versus a strap, but they are all broken and I have to find a fix or they will surely break out on the stages |
