      Thread resurrection! Is there any issues with headlight alignment after you remove the headlight to do the swap over?

        No, should be fine if you slot it in correctly.
        Sometimes the clips and the slides don't all match up - take it out and put it back in again - see if that solves it.

                Just dont drop the plastic nut into the engine bay while hurrying.......
                Then you have to remove the headlight guides etc to get down under the engine or remove the tray underneath.

                  Get under the car and slam your hand into the rain tray to get the nut into a position you can grab it with a set of grips. guilty
