    Don't forget to adjust the endstop bushings, I 3d printed new ones and it is stiff

      Same… have you find out what was the problem?

      @@ricardomedeiros9626 Yes. The solution for me was to recalibrate the stop of the headlight. You will have to unscrew the cover of the headlight and remove it. Then you will have to loosen or tighten the bolt that regulates the height of the headlight when in upward position. After some tries I managed to get it right. Now it does not move anymore.

    Don’t have the problem with an NB! Hey Alex… just curious if you’re going to be at the Miata Reunion in Northern California in a couple of weeks? I think it’s unlikely (long trip), but it would be fun to meet you.

      yeah this video addresses the worn bushings not the cause of why the bushing are so worn. he is relaying on the retractor arm to stop the shake and put the light back in contact with the stop pads.
      your issue sound like that the stop pads are out of adjustment.

      The screws holding the round light to the housing may be loose.

      Need to check the screws that hold the 7inch round light to the housing.

      The bolts/nuts that hold the whole headlight assembly into the engine bay might be loose.
