I always wanted a pair of those late 'streamlined' GT-5/GT5-S headlight-surrounds, so if you get disgusted or change to low-profile headlights, send the stock surrounds to me, Charlie! Cheers- J Deryke
 


My headlights are just like the ones in Tomas' photo. One of the screws that
holds the black cover on that surrounds the bulb has backed out.

Mystery solved. 

My headlights are just like the ones in Tomas' photo. One of the screws that
holds the black cover on that surrounds the bulb has backed out. It hits the
inside of the bodywork just below the headlight opening and prevents the
buckets from raising. 

The opening is so minuscule that I am not entirely sure how to remove that
screw, but at least now I know what the problem is!

If Charlie's car is similar to mine there are no normal "trim rings", see
attached photo. I guess it can still be a related problem.
