  • Headlight Aim/Position

    Does anyone have a diagram or a procedure for aiming the headlights?
    I hit a deer on the right side of my car and just got it back from the shop. They replaced the right headlight and it now points considerably lower than the left.
    I appreciate any assistance.

    off hand i know theres 2 screews you can by the head light turning those screews will aim the light

    aim it by parking about 10 ft away from a wall and aim it so it is level with teh other adn pointing just slightly in so you dont blind oncomming traffic

    Remember if "the" and "and" are spelled right its not a genuine Ahuhn post


    Dear God, please send clothes to all those poor ladies in Daddy's computer. Amen.

      Do you know the specific height in which the center of each headlight beam should be off the ground when parked 10ft away? Preferably the factory spec or a measurement of a known good? Are they suppose to be the same? I have seen some that are at different heights from the factory...not a G6 though.
      Thanks.

        the procedure is in you user manual
        if i remember it goes something like this
        25feet away from a wall on level ground
        measure the distance from the ground to the cirle on the headlight
        mark the distance u measured on the wall
        adjust your beams just below that line
