Default Aiming Headlights on GS400

hi there,

I just installed a phillips HID kit on my car and want to aim the headlights lower so I do not blind
oncoming traffic. Which 8mm Hex do I turn to adjust the vertical aspect of the light? Is it the 8mm hex screw nearest to the fender? And what tool do I use to turn it? thanks!

Sure!



Use 8mm or 5/16" Socket screw to turn the **** on the right side (this being the driver side lamp) or on the left if it were the passenger.

In simpler terms, the inner screw handles the vertical while the outer one closest to fender controls the horizontal. Does that make sense?
