the right side is higher than the left, and is quite noticable. i have just had a HID light conversion done, so maybe they have just been knock out of alignment. not big problem, just need to know what i am looking for, hate to turn the wrong thing so to speak.

Also, do you acees the adjuster from inside the engine compartment or exteranaly? Cheers

I'm sure if look at the head light the 2 screws are visible bottom one for vertical the other for horizontal adjustment.line it up to the correct light in front of a wall etc. 2.4 90 XS

hi,
yes i was, but have adjusted the lights low, so as not to cause problems to other uses. also, looking into some form of washer setup for the main lights. not a legal solution, but steps in the correct direction. Cheers
