Supposedly, the part will arrive tomorrow or Tuesday. At that time, I'll be scheduled for the actual repair. I'll post an update when there's something to add.

The weather was cooperative, so I looked at the back of the headlight and there is an 8mm hex adjustment knob. Now I need to find a place to do the adjustment.

I installed the iOttie earlier today. Seems to hold on much better than similar sticky mounts that I have around. Here's hoping it lasts. :-)
