You need the motor, either a manual one or an electric one. It's the motor that holds it in place.

Pointless, you need the adjustor motors fitted as they control the up / down position of the reflector.
Without the motor fitted in place correctly the reflector will just move about.

Play round with the white adjusting knobs...They're an allen key fitting. Turn them and the lights go up/down.

That's all I did. A bit of trial and error.
