Not sure...I have never had to align my lights. I assume it should have some sort of user friendly manual adjustment.

After I got mine replaced, I couldn't drive on the highway at night without using high beam. The lights were pointing down. Went back to the dealer and they did adjusted them by a lot!! I don't have the exact millimeters of how much they adjusted, but it was a lot. It looks like they just threw them in and never check after. It might be the same issue I had.

I'm getting mine replaced this Friday. I just got my brakes replaced 2 weeks ago as well.

Since the car had that trunk latch recall, I got a full tank of gas as well.

I just emailed my service advisor on my concern about my headlamps being too low, hopefully they would be able to adjust them at no charge...

I always wondered why on my first dealer visit they did the recall on the trunk latch n filled my gas tank too. Def doing brakes/headlights on my next visit.

Where do you take your car in for service?

guys, adjusting the lamps is easy. Save yourself the trip to the dealer if you will... I know some dealers take a couple of hrs to provide service and its something you can do within 10 mins.

What are they doing with the bubbled headlights they are removing? Any chance those of us with 08-10 models could pick them up for cheap?
