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

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
