I can't use a wall. I have to adjust them, stand in front of the car and get down on my knees to see where it starts to blind me. Then I'll aim them down a little bit. Every time I've used the wall to figure it out I always get people flashing me

Thanks for the info.
I probably should have looked there, however, I am used to the manual not being that helpful when it comes to doing things yourself.

Re: How to: Aim headlights
Sorry to bump an old thread. Is that adjustment the up/down or left/right on our headlights? I drove to Myrtle beach 2 weeks ago and on the way back started hating my headlight. After 11 hours of driving it was dark and I was cranky and now I hate my headlights. They aim so low now for some reason.
Anyway, I was going to adjust them, but the text by the adjuster say "L-R". Does it adjust them left to right or will it do up and down? Am I dumb and just am missing the other adjustment?

Re: How to: Aim headlights

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

Re: How to: Aim headlights
Sorry to bump an old thread, but any chance anybody has the pics that were in post #1, and can repost? Or provide a link to where they are? I just bought new headlights and was wanting to adjust them properly. Thanks in advance!-- Whatever doesn't kill me, only makes me stronger. --

Re: How to: Aim headlights
It's probably just pictures of a wall method, essentially on a flat surface anywhere from 15-25 feet away from the wall you measure up to the height of your headlights and line them up straight (kinda have to left to right adjustment so I guess thats outta the picture) Someone mentioned it earlier in the thread but essentially just put them as high as you can without pointing into peoples windshields.
