hey my right headlight is scraping up against the hood of the car on the back left corner. The left headlight comes up just fine but with a small clunking sound. But now the right one never comes up. I can get it up though by just pulling on it a little.

Can someone help me?

You can adjust the headlight assy. with two bolts on the top when you open your hood and two more on the left and right side of it. I think you need to take off the bumper to gain acess, I dont remember. You might also have to adjust the hood if its not align with two bolts on each side on the hinges.

Your problem can be solved with some adjustments. Like SiR says, you might wanna check the allignment of the hood.

No, they're 4 bolts per headligh assy, the other two are on the sides of them. Also the two top ones that you can see.

no that's not it, it's definately catching the hood when it comes up.
