Ive fixed some, you have to cut a hole in the bottom.
As for adjuster you need to try and get one of a damaged/scrapped light as they dont sell them. I expoxy the adjuster wheels to the metal shaft so mine wont ever come off. |

If its the top mount you have to cut a hole in the bottom to clip it back on or the fource applied could pull the reflector off its bolted mount.
Tried and done that, since that expensive mistake I always cut a hole in the bottom and plastic weld the cut out back on. |

Just re read your post have you tried a 10mm spanner on the rear instead of the Allen key part as the teeth maybe worn where the 2 meet.

I noticed one of mine had been wound out so far it had come off the cam and needed re-seating. It was the one in top right on drivers as you stand in front of the car. Dont know which that adjusts horizontal or vertical beam. But never come off again. |
