IIRC they're sealed units ie; replace as a unit.

That sounds like nonsense tho......?

What year is your s12? I've read a couple of posts that say '88 mk2's had some issues with the headlight stalks.

The contacts were worn on mine so I took the stalk off and bent them slightly with a small screwdriver you have to be very carefull though when doing it.
