Hello, folks. I've searched everywhere to find out if the halogen bulb headlights on a 2014 ES are adjustable, and if so, how.
I did a Morimoto HID bulb upgrade and they look great - but if I want to fine tune the headlight aim I have no clue how to do it. I found a little info that only applied to the last generation stock HID headlights. The little markings under the hood for up-down left-right adjustment don't seem to point to anything in particular, and I don't know that they even apply to non-HID (non self-leveling) headlight units. It's really frustrating.

Any info/pictures would be a miracle. Thanks

BTW - here's what the pattern looks like at 25ft. Definitely needs some tweaking.

Watch this you tube Video it will give you an idea. It is for 2007 Lexus IS250 but at least the up and down mechanism is the same.

Thanks. I was unsure about these videos - whether the mechanisms/light design had changed in 7 years. Can't find any video or info about the current generation ES.

The reason I posted this because I did HID upgrade on My car from halogen. Mine is 2013 ES300H. I found that the HID aim higher and I had to lower them. For that you need Philips head screw driver same as in the video.

Here's the back of an OEM halogen ES headlight. One adjustment screw is in plain sight, but I don't see another one anywhere. What am I missing?

Another view.

The white disc is what moves the headlight up and down. The arrow head is where the screw driver goes.

GES

Not sure where the Right-Left adjustment disc is. Has to be at the side of the headlight where the turn signal light is.

My 2016 has Bi-LED Headlights...Does anyone know what that exactly means?

It just means that both the low beam and the high beam headlights are LEDs.

GES - That's just it - there doesn't seem to be ANYTHING around the turn signal side of the light...no adjustment screws. Since nobody seems to know I'll go to the dealer and make them show me!

GES

I agree the dealer would know better. In my case all I needed is the up and down movement, there was no reason for me to move it right or left. After installing the conversion kits, the lights were leveled, they just needed to be lowered. This of course because the lens is not meant to be for the HID bulbs. I am not sure why you had such discrepancy in the alignment of the two headlights.

Mine has those to. Luxury package and up. It means both your high and low beams are led. Hence the two projectors in both lights assemblies

GES - I'm not sure I need left-right adjustment yet. I haven't done the full process of measuring everything, placing tape on the wall, etc. Just before I did the upgrade the dealer replaced the driver's side headlight under warranty because of a tiny bit of moisture inside the top edge. After that it just seems like the new light is slightly off to the right. I could be wrong! The alignment process will show for sure. But, since it doesn't look like I could even adjust it, who cares lol!
