How to align xenon lights?

MrSpain · 06-28-2009, 07:21 PM

Hey everyone,

I think that whoever fixed my dead angel eye at the dealer, also de-aligned my left side beam.
It's pretty bad as a lot of people flash the lights at me as if I have my high beams on.

How do I regulate the beam up/down myself? I could obviously take it back to the dealer but it's pretty annoying as you have to get appointment and it just wastes a lot of hours in my day every time I do it.

Thanks!

There is a screw for each light that allows you to adjust the cut-off height.

Hey guys. Does this seem normal?
I think it may not just be misaligned, but straight up not put together right.
The gap between the bulb and the aperture seems kinda big, check the pic.

that doesnt look right, you'll have to get it checked, your warranty should take care of it.
