Headlight adjuster kits (63 21 0 153 655)

[jnelson]

Over the past couple weeks there have been several postings about people not able to get the new style adjusters from dealers (NLA or back ordered). I just picked up one locally (made in Italy no less) for $25 and they indicate no difficulty in getting more. If there is any interest out there for them I am willing to be a "pass-through" supplier. Here is also the schematic of the parts if you have any questions.

Should I stock up on some for any future demands of our 8 friends?

Dave has his sources and I don't ask. But I am also considering getting a couple for my parts shelf and to finish off headlight assemblies.

I'll take 4

....and 3 for me please.

For those interested, I will post a price within a couple days including shipping and my PayPal account (annoying since PayPal takes $1.25 out of every $25 that's deposited). Price will be in the range of $25 + $3 to cover postage and PayPal expenses.

Count me in for two, which I guess is enough for two headlights.

I just had mine replaced on one side and my local mechanic (the absolute best euro car mechanic, Sam) didn't have any trouble getting the kit for me. Cost me $26.50 for one kit (all I needed), so they are available.

[CSi226]

I would like two kits as well!

I was just informed that the Headlight Adjuster Kits (63 21 0 153 655) are indeed back-ordered through BMWNA. No idea when that means they will be available or whether the status will evolve into the dreaded NLA. I was able to get my hands on 5 kits though and was told that there may be a few others in various dealer parts bins across the country. I will continue my search.

I regret any hopes that this created and will let folks know what I hear as info becomes available. Several of you wanted them as backups for you parts shelf (I know that affliction) but others needed them ASAP because of missing adjusters. Although it would seem fair to offer the limited number I have to those who responded first, it may be better to give them to those of you who are missing them and need them the most. If you have other thoughts about this please post. Otherwise, please repost your needs and I will do my best to be responsive.

The sequence for now is:
1. Wuffer
2. MaxR
3. Stefan
4. RonP
5. Ethan

The cost is $29 for each kit (one wheel and assorted hardware) to cover the kit, local tax, PayPal expenses, and postage and packaging.
