Didn't have that issue with my Depo lights on either the Omega or the Trolley.

When any headlight is shipped new, they have support fitted to hold the reflector rigid. When shipping second hand people don't bother, and they're pretty much guaranteed to break, especially if the motor isn't fitted.  :-X

Have adjusters made in a 3D-printer and they are in another type of plastic that are stronger.

I did indeed put some lubricant on them. I popped some on the ball joints of all adjusters and sliders where they had them.  I also bought a second set just in case!

I was going to put in some LED DRL whilst I had them apart, but didn't bother.
