The linkage will connect to a small sensor up in a boxed area of the frame. I don't think my auto-levelling system is working...probably the sensor switch needs replacing (not a big deal since I never carry really heavy loads in the car). If you have LED then
Thank you for all of this information and the pictures! This is awesome! I will go out to my car today and check for all of those things and report back.
Thank you!!

Hi all!
I looked at my car and found that I don't have any of the things that indicate self-leveling headlights. Thank you all for the help!
