Lotus Elan episode 77 - vacuum headlights 🙄🙄🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Oliver, my deepest sympathies. You've lost a very special member of the family. It takes time to grieve and you never really get over it. We lost our Taz last Christmas and still think about him every day.

Thank you Ian ❤

[@MikeAarset]

So sorry for your loss. Always rough.

[@olly22n]

Thank you Mike. He was a good boy.

I would suggest getting that bolt on the side of the light pod fitted firmly and propertly, if the pod is not aligned properly then that may interfere with the pod moving in line and smoothly. Just a thought.

@@doristhompson4703 you’re exactly right, I figured out that it was the issue after I’d edited the video. The actuator is at max travel, but the bolt hole is elongated.

Sorry for your loss of Charlie, looks like he had a great life.

Thanks Mike

[@diederikklopper3102]

My condolences. Regarding the headlight unit, it seems like an alignment issue indeed. Is there any way you can swap around left & right to exclude any other issues?

[@diederikklopper3102]

Ah just saw the other comment. Makes sense!

[@olly22n]

It took a nights sleep for my brain to figure it out! I’ll remove the pod over the winter and repair the fibreglass 👍🏻
