DIY: Adjust beam pattern >VIDEO<
 
Finally have my lights exactly where i want them. Makes a HUGE difference driving around dark roads at night. Highly recommend this FREE mod!!! I know there are already other threads about this but ..... i figured i would make a vid showing exactly what to do. Some people said it took them hours to adjust the lights when it only takes me seconds.:uh:

I SCREWED UP WHEN I WAS TALKING IN THE BEGINNING. I SAID SOME HORIZONTAL VERTICAL BULL..:egads:.HA HA HA...OOPS...

AND GARAGE IS MESSY...So i don't want to hear it...:woot:

Do this with the CAR ON!!!!

I actually did not even look at the bubbles....I think they are the reason the dealer wont adjust the beams as high as people prefer....because when they are aimed like they should be (for my preference), bubbles are not as they should be....I looked at the beam pattern and raised them up a few inches on the wall, further you are, higher up you go....closer you are to the wall, smaller distance up you need to go....basic trig...anyhow, aim them up and you will have a beam that projects further down the road....nice video posting exactly where to shove the screwdriver in...Thanks

If raised to high....Yes... But I have my horizontal to the street. Looks like BMW's lights on the road now... Nobody has flashed me yet either.

Great video! Quick question, while facing the engine, do you turn toward you or away from you to raise up the beam?

here is the thing...I cant find a 10 Inch #3 philips head screwdriver anywhere (autozone, home depot). Where can i find one?

I used a #2 10 inch and it worked but im scared i might mess up the screw in the future and not be able to adjust it anymore
