This wrench is double-sided and ratcheting, so you can't switch between clockwise/counterclockwise without taking the wrench out and flipping it around. My wrench was stuck between the bolt it was adjusting and some metal in the engine bay. If I tried to turn the wrench, all that would do is get me more stuck, as trying to go clockwise just ratchets and will not tighten the screw. So the only way to get the wrench unstuck was to remove the headlights. Simple enough, right? Well, not with all that pressure against the retaining clip. The clip would not come out no matter what I was trying. No tools can really get the clip loose, you just have to pull really hard. Did that, got the clip loose, but split my fingernail completely down the middle. Oh well. Adjusted the headlight while it was off the car, put it back on. It still needed to be aimed higher. So I had to turn the screw counter clockwise on the BOTTOM adjustor (not adjustable by wrench, I used pliers) to angle the headlight more upward. But to do that, I had to take the headlight off again. Tried to use a ratchet handle for leverage this time. Pulled as hard as I could with both hands. The result: the ratchet slipped, my finger slid past the clip, and a sizable chunk of skin was ripped off my finger. After adjusting the headlight one last time and putting it back on, it is now properly aligned.
So, all in all, this tool does what it's supposed to. But you have to be very careful with it or you may hurt yourself or break the tool. To be fair, I'd place more of the blame onto Ford's headlight design than this tool. Despite most things being so easy to work on for my CVPI, the headlights have given me some pretty gnarly injuries for what should have been a simple and painless job.
