Headlight alignment on MK2
« on: 17 February 2004, 16:15 »
Having just dried out and re-sealed my headlights I now want to make sure that their alignment is ok (and the spots too).  Can you do this yourself or is it a garage job?

diy job.

there is two screws for each lamp, the top screw moves it on the vertical axis, and the bottom screw on the horizontal axis (or could be vice versa)

i just  parked mine about 10 mtres from a car and aimed my lights at the top of their bumper

the car in question was a metro!
