I never totally eliminated my jiggly NA lights. I adjusted the stoppers which helped a lot and replaced the links and that did stuff all. At least they were pretty cheap from Mazda. Jiggly lights must be an MX5 thing. My NA did it, my NB does it and Kuntry Kuzzin's NC does it. :evil:

*Waits for AJ and JBT to pipe in and say their NC's dont do it*

AJ,

Park your NC on an uphill slope and shine your headlights against a wall about 2 to 3m away and let the car idle. You might be surprised......
