I don't believe it is an adjustment tool. I thought that was a headlight removal tool.

You should have a removal tool. Adjustments are made with 10mm nuts in various places on the black plastic headlight carrier that the headlight slides into

Petza914 - Thanks. I can really see inside from there. I don't know if it help with a bodge fix, but it certainly shows where to go when we need to go.

I will have the help of our village mechanic now, as I apparently bought him a bottle of pastis once. It's a small village, my mate Denis told his employer, Louisette, that I had a problem with the Porsche. She told her best mate, "The Widow Constance" (She's probably not a widow, but no-one has seen her husband for 7 years), and she mentioned it to her friend Patrick, who is a cop but not our cop, and he told the pizza guy who told Ren, who hopes to be Porsche accredited one day. Apparently he will do labour free, but will expect an occasional drink while he works. You have to love the south of France. You really don't want to own a Porsche here though.
