Corny357 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 I can't tell which is correct; this headlight aim (pic stolen from another thread)........ http://i.imgur.com/jLejl.jpg or my headlight aim (and to be fair, I just had my right headlight assembly replaced, so maybe mine needs adjustment?)

ehsnils Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 The right headlight seems to be a bit too high. That's all. Adjust it to the same height as the left and you should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corny357 Posted August 14, 2011 Author Share Posted August 14, 2011 Right, but I thought the right side was supposed to be higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 no, there's an upper inflection point built into each lense for this "right side higher" effect. wiggle one of the headlights to determine what part of the beam on the garage door moves, adjust it, and keep wiggling, you'll find the lines that you need to align with the other side's. I'd recommend moving the right headlight down. In short, both headlights have a high and low leveled beam, so.... align so both lines line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelenriquez Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Anyone know of how to adjust these vertically? I just put HIDs in and it seems to be a little high and I was told I need to lower the beam. I do see a screw I tried to turn clockwise (facing front of vehicle) and it didn't seem to make now difference. I even went the opposite direction and still no change.

rob-2 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 This looks fine. Left beam is lower to avoid blinding on-coming traffic. If they are even, IE lowering the right side to match the left you'll loose the ability to see down the road at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both lights shall have the same setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
