redline racer510

ok i recently got into an accident and figure that my headlight motors went out as well. so to start things off I HAVE SEARCHED not just this forum but many others and also two hours on google. I just bought some headlight motors and installed them to find out that the connectors that connect from the headlight motor to the assembly hit the back of the head light bracket now i dont know if this is typical with all 240's with pop-up lights or does my bracket need to be bent to accomadate the connectors ??
