Default Aiming headlights

So I'm sure we've all had the fun task of re-aiming headlights after a bulb replacement or entire assembly. Those e-torx adjusters are a pain. In my case it was installing aftermarket assemblies. The height adjustment are Philips but the side to side are e-torx! So rather than fiddling with a socket which I'd probably loose, (already lost one when I first installed them) I ended up using JB Weld on a cpl of small regular sockets and gluing them to the adjuster a little WD first to make sure I didn't end up gluing the socket to the opening . Happy to say it's worked out perfectly!! Headlights are finally aimed properly.
